Alejandro De Aza era starts today
Starting CF for the game.
Rumored deal of Jackson and Teahen to Toronto for reliever Jason Frasor and a prospect is still percolating. Some roster move would need to be made for De Aza to be starting...

for another team? no. let's not pretend de aza is a great player or something. he's here to play for the white sox.
silly thought..i would assume the rasmus rumors are put to rest now..

Four days to blow up the team
How many moves will KW make between now and Sunday?
(Of course, many of these players will be available via the waiver wire next month, as Contreras and Thome were a couple of years ago.)
I want Brett Gardner from the Yankees
How about Thornton + Danks for Montero or Pitching Prospect and Gardner. I love rosterbation.
how do you think about this one....
Tim Brown
FoxSports guys reporting CWS close to trading Jackson and Teahen to Toronto for Frasor and prospect. Also, that Danks and Floyd available.
Danks/Floyd
If we trade one of those guys in addition to Jackson, the White Flag is being waved.
I think they want to see what teams will offer. If they’re blown away, maybe they take it.
Rumors go from us getting Rasmus for EJax/Teahen to Frasor, prospect and cash? Big difference.

Rasmus
If the Sox are going to let Rasmus get to Toronto in a three team deal, they must not really want him.

that would be stupid if kw wants frasor over rasmus

Maybe getting Frasor makes Thornton expendable
and we get Rasmus in a deal that includes Thornton
Don’t think it’s WANT. If they are going to do that deal with Toronto, then I think more salary will be slashed w/o much immediate compensation. Any other deals will be prospects only…I’d guess at least.
Frasor is a bum. 33 yrs old. I don’t care what he’s doing this year. Not a great track record.

maybe toronto has more chips (in addition to ejax) to flip for rasmus than the sox

The last time the Jays and Sox did a deal
was the Sirotka/Wells fiasco 10 years ago.
Must mean Jackson is hurt.
I shant be misled a second time

#WhiteSox are not trading John Danks, assuredly. NOT TRADING JOHN DANKS
Unless it's to Tampa for Longoria.
To my knowledge, certain things were not known.

UPDATE
@cst_cowley: DeAza in CF, Teahen not listed on lineup card. EJax is MIA. Do the math.
Well, well, well…. pretty much official.

Who wants to bet Teahen bats .300 for the Blue Jays?
That’s the way KW’s moves have been doing.
More inclined to bet
that Duncanizing results in Cy Jackson

if the cards get nothing significantly more than ejax from the jays for rasmus
then, i would take that to mean that kw doesn’t want rasmus to infect the sox clubhouse

Trying to score runs with Juan Pierre as your leadoff hitter is like trying to suture a wound in a moving car. You might still be successful -- but why make it so hard on yourself?
@CST_soxvan again...
EJax and Teahen to Toronto.
Jackson ok with trade. Speculation he may end up in stlou. No official word
Hossa for President, no... for GOD!
anyone know if he projects to be a starter?
"We saw death and I don't think we fear it anymore. Not unlike 2005, when we finally clinched and then we took off in the playoffs." Coop 7/29/10
i'm wrong...
Zach Stewart, RHP, Grade B+: His stock has dropped a little, but I still like him. If he can’t cut it as a starter he can close.
Kenny Williams going balls out!
@cst_Cowley
KW: Rios has been benched. Message sent to everyone.
Hossa for President, no... for GOD!
what message exactly?
you’ll get more than a year to suck horribly, then its to the bench?

I see this trade as salary dunmping
I don’t think this trade makes us a better team….although having De Aza instead of Rios definitely is an upgrade.
If you chase two rabbits both will escape!
