Out of Washington via The Score: Washington Is Not Trading Adam Dunn To The White Sox For Edwin Jackson

  1. Does that mean hes not coming at all?
  2. Does that mean the Sox are sending something else to Washington?
  3. Can we see Dunn and Edwin on the White Sox at the end of the day?

I'm not so sure they are.

I’m not convinced that Jackson is better than Hudson. Jackson had a half-season of absurd hit luck in Detroit, and it makes everyone think he’s better than he is.

And Jackson costs way more and is under control for far fewer years.

Hudson doesnt have the potential ceiling of Jackson

and if anyone can fix him its Cooper.

The money part sucks, but we’ll see if this day is done.

I like this move with Freddy scuffling lately.

Danks, Floyd, Buehrle and Jackson if they need to go to a 4 man rotation.

At least with Dunn - even if he doesn't sign with the Sox next year would help replenish farm system

the Sox would get a 1st round pick plus another pick between the 1st and 2nd round in next year’s draft

1) If it doesn’t that’s a lot of money in the rotation next season
2) The Sox still need a bat and a good pitcher could bring a bat and replacement stiff pitcher
3) People keep talking about a big deal happening and that takes talent being sent out….

Logic

KW knows we need to have 5 SPs and we have no one we can call up. He wouldn’t trust Tony Pena converting to a full-time SP. Therefore we cannot get a left-handed bat and give up a pitcher without one back. Middle relief isn’t very valuable either so someone explain how we get Adam Dunn or Berkman.

I like Joe Sheehan's proposal better

Nationals trade 1B Adam Dunn to the White Sox for LHP Santos Rodriguez.

The Nationals have been asking for the moon for Dunn, the best bat available on the market. Dunn has shown a willingness to stay in Washington, but the Nats aren’t going to retain him with the two-year, $20 million bargain contract that pulled him in nearly two years ago. The best long-term play is to turn him into future value, even in a market that seems to be undervaluing veterans. Rodriguez is a left-handed power arm who has come along slowly. At 22, he has 59 strikeouts in 40 1/3 innings for Kannapolis in the high-A Carolina League. In the long term, he could be the Nats’ version of the White Sox’ Matt Thornton while closer Drew Storen would be their Bobby Jenks.

Dealing Jackson without adding a viable fifth starter just doesn't make a whole lot of sense

I can see KW thinking that with some of Coop’s pixie dust, Jackson can be a big improvement over Hudson for this year and next year. But dealing Jackson for Dunn? That strikes me as circular. The drop-off from Jackson to Torres negates probably about half of the upgrade of Dunn over Kotsay.

It’s really too bad that there weren’t any cheap, viable DH candidates to be had this winter…

Jackson v. Twins

In 2008 and 2009 Jackson started 3 games against the Twins. He was 1-1, pitched 20 innings, gave up 9 ER, struck out 21, walked 7, gave up 20 hits. ERA 4.05. Last year he was 0-1 in two starts vs. the Twins with a 5.84 ERA, walking 6 and giving up 13 hits in 12 1/3 innings. He did strike out 16.
