White Sox Make Offer To Bobby Abreu

Bobby Abreu was offered a one-year deal worth $8 million from the White Sox, the Daily News has learned. Abreu made $16 million as the Bombers' starting right fielder last season. He anticipated being able to sign a three-year deal as a free agent this offseason but has mostly received only one-year offers.
[Note by The Cheat, 02/03/09 1:00 PM CST]:Redirected to original source, and promoted to the front page.
[Update by The Cheat, 02/03/09 2:51 PM CST]: Scott Gregor uses a little common sense, and a "White Sox source," to deny the rumor. Meanwhile, Jerry Crasnik seems to have more detail.
And Kenny Williams is still blaming bloggers for the economic meltdown, world hunger and global warming.Negotiations between the Chicago White Sox and free-agent outfielder Bobby Abreu stalled early this week after the team floated the possibility of a one-year, $8 million contract, said a baseball source.
The source disputed a New York Daily News report that said the White Sox had made Abreu an $8 million offer but confirmed that the team has been in contact with Abreu's agent, Peter Greenberg, in an effort to gauge the outfielder's asking price.
"He is a great player and can help any club," said Williams via e-mail to MLB.com, not confirming or denying the Abreu offer, staying consistent with his offseason policy. "But I just have stopped responding to every blogger's post."

Sorry, Sox fans: Team source dismisses Abreu rumor
Daily Herald White Sox reporter Scot Gregor says this deal can’t happen unless the Sox can trade Dye first, and last week Sox General Manager Kenny Williams said a deal is “highly unlikely.”
When asked about a possible deal for Abreu, a White Sox source dismissed the rumor.

Maybe Konerko goes. To Anaheim, specifically. The Angels have long held unrequited love for the Sox first baseman, and with Mark Teixeira gone, the Angels need a bat like Konerko used to have. And maybe this finally solves the Sox’ unrequited love for Chone Figgins.

kenny down to 0 cents
In a Q&A with reporters before SoxFest, Williams was asked for his thoughts on Manny Ramirez and all of the other free agents still looking for work with spring training closing in.
“You’re asking if we’re going to sign Manny?” Williams said with a slight look of bewilderment. “Nah, we don’t allow dreadlocks here… And we don’t have any money.”

The eighth-best left-handed hitting shortstop in major league history (Bats Left, Throws Right)
Ozzie Guillen
Guillen’s high-profile turn as White Sox manager is beginning to overshadow his long career as their shortstop. Guillen the manager and Guillen the player share interesting similarities: both are quite singular in style, aggressive and talented but flawed.
Guillen the ballplayer was a very good defender. As a hitter he was able to consistently deliver a league-norm-or-so batting average, but that was it: he had no power, and was completely incapable of drawing walks. He stole bases for a few years, but was getting thrown out so ridiculously much that he finally stopped running.

One thing I'd say about Ozzie The Hitter...
He was one of the best bad ball hitters I ever saw. Don’t know if any of them fancy statisticle numbers you kids use bear it out, but he’d swing at a ball in the other batters box and DANG if it didn’t find a hole. Nothin’ down the middle though.

Seriously, when my paper’s website went down for 36 hours, my coworkers received calls from other media outlets frustrated that our site was down because they couldn’t do their jobs.
That said, it could be fabricated. But it would sure be nice of a news outlet to say, you know, who was fabricating it. If it’s Abreu’s agent, then it’s business as usual.

I’ve been impressed with Sandoval, the 3b(DH today) for Mexico, he has a nice approach at the plate, solid on two charging barehanded plays yesterday, not a power hitting by any stretch of the imagination though. Angels system.

van dyck's take
The Sox have talked to Abreu’s agent, Peter Greenberg, and probably have made an informal proposal that they would be willing to pay $8 million if he doesn’t sign elsewhere before spring training comes.
Greenberg did not return a phone call and e-mail seeking comment.
Sox general manager Ken Williams’ response by e-mail was, “I can’t keep up with these bloggers’ pace,” although he also said Abreu is “a great player and can help any club.”

Yes, rather like comparing our system to Cleveland's.
Donut v. hole. We had amongst the worst farm system in 2007 and have moved up fairly significantly. Part of the price of the title last year was the trades that led to some of our roster contributors last year.
Rome wasn’t built in a day. Now go put on your headdress. IIRC you loved the Tribe (no, not the proper Tribe) last year, too. They have won one division title in the Shapiro years (not even a pennant). KW stacks up pretty well in his track record when compared to Marky Mark.

let's just keep in mind that, while poreda is very nice
after that you have clayton “please, please be a 5th starter”, dexter “i just finished rookie ball!” carter, and jeff “i inspire a great deal of confidence” marquez as your top pitching prospects [or feel free to fill in your favorite pitching prospects with numerous questions]. it takes time to rebuild a farm system and the sox have done an admirable job in terms of position players. but the pitching is still utter horseshit. even with poreda, it’s probably the worst in baseball.

they did that in 2007. good idea, execution was good, results have been less than impressive thus far.
last year they addressed position players. good idea, execution was good, results so far look good.
drafting for need in the first round is usually a bad idea – take the best player. but after round one compensation picks you get fungible players at a given slot. it wouldn’t hurt to focus more on pitching as opposed to position players.
i would note, that the white sox have some potential at the lower levels (carter for one). but poreda is the only legit prospect.

WTF is this widespread all-of-a-sudden foregone conclusion that JD MUST go? The Trib guy presumes it, the yappin’ douches at the Score are repeating it, I just bumped into some guy who was all for it, like out of nowhere. What, exactly, the fuck? Do not get.
by IceColdFalstaff on Feb 4, 2009 2:08 PM CST reply actions 0 recs
How can you not get it??
JD can be traded to just about anybody (limited no-trade). Thome and Konerko have no-trades and must waive them to get traded. Abreu is a corner OF’er or DH. We already have Q! at one corner OF spot…so that leaves JD. JD is probably the most marketable (or at least he was) player we have to trade of the three.
It makes the most sense…

Free-Agent Fix #1, Chicago White Sox: Given the grim PECOTA forecasts of Bartolo Colon (77 1/3 innings and a park-neutral Equivalent ERA of 4.90), Clayton Richard (137 2/3 innings, 5.86 EqERA), and mid-season cavalryman Jose Contreras (5.13 EqERA), the Sox really need a League-Average Innings Muncher (LAIM) to help them field a credible rotation behind their big three. Enter Braden Looper, whose 374 innings and 4.52 ERA over the last two years are as LAIM as the remaining market offers. The most ground ball-oriented of the remaining starters (1.61 GB/FB last year), Looper’s a good fit for the South Siders’ homer haven of a home, and well capable of bettering his PECOTA forecast (4.98 EqERA).—Jay Jaffe

viciedo
Viciedo burst into the international scene at the 2005 World Junior Championships in Mexico, gaining MVP honors at 15. The next year he became the youngest All-Star ever in Cuba’s top league, the Serie Nacional. He compiled a lifetime average of .287 in four seasons, with 36 home runs, 162 RBI and a .456 slugging percentage in 327 games for Villa Clara.
While Viciedo has shown prodigious power and ability, he also developed some sloppy work habits. Listed at 6 feet tall, he acknowledges his weight rose to 260 pounds before his current 240.
Some think the frequent comparisons with legendary Cuban third baseman Omar Linares are far-fetched.
“(Viciedo) was not one of the top six or seven third basemen on the island,” says Cuban baseball expert Peter Bjarkman, who has seen Viciedo play more than 25 times. “He simply never developed after his (second) season.”
