The Savior For Roy Halladay?

Ken Rosenthal suggests that the White Sox could land Halladay if they were willing to deal The Messiah himself, Gordon Beckham. Personally, I think Rosenthal is an assclown. No way would I make this deal.

More proof...

… that Rosenthal is a moron.

“if the White Sox were willing to move superstar-in-waiting Gordon Beckham, look out.”

If that happened the only person who would to look out, would be KW… for his job.

If the Bosox could turn back the clock

would they have traded Beckett/Lowell for H-Ram, et.al? Beckett’s younger, too. I’m not sure, though they have won a ring or two.

We’re a pack of a-holes.

the first ring justifies that trade

I love this team again. I know they’re bad for me.
They’ll probably get drunk again and beat me… but I just can’t help myself.

Dear lord, what a hideous thought.

Ed Farmer: "Is it raining in here?"
Steve Stone: "I've made an egregious mistake."

This initial reaction was based on my illiterate ass reading "Halladay" and thinking "Oswalt".

Upon further review, this is not an unreasonable thought.

But I really really really love the savior.

Mel Gibson has expressed an interest in directing the film version of this trade.

Poreda can't be involved, then.

Mel’s not too objective where Jews are involved.

No, no, no, no

- Halladay will be a FA after next season and there’s no way the Sox could resign him

- Beckham is a 10 year middle of the order guy probably starting next year and he won’t be a payroll issue for several years and may even sign a long term deal like Longoria for below market value in a trade off for security.

As the trade deadline looms Halladay’s price gets cheaper. If Q’s footsie gets all better I could see Dye in a 3 way with SF that lands us Halladay. Could see Rowand coming back as well if the Sox are willing to give up either Flowers or Jordan Danks as part of a package with Poreda and Richard. Alexei is a valuable part as well. Would probably rather see him go than Flowers and Danks.
