I'm not surprised he left, but I am surprised he signed with the Yanks, as I thoughtt he said he wanted to be a Closer, and he's not going to get that chance...
Yeah, and Colon said he wanted to stay with the Sox and A-Rod said money wasn't that important. The list goes on and on. But when it comes right down to it,...
Well I had heard last week someone (Petit??) that was considering a move to Houston b/c of being closer to family. Not money motivated.... On another note, I...
First of all Flash isn't good enough to be a closer and secondly he isn't really that great of a setup man either. The Yankees decided on Flash instead of...

Down the stretch in August and September Flash was pretty good (2-1 with 6 Saves). Overall though he had as many blown saves and losses as he did saves which...

I know the Dodgers are looking to trim some payroll and that would do the trick. Kevin Brown is much better than Weaver but is also much more prone to injury...
Sox and Dodgers are talking about a Konerko-for-Odalis Perez (lefty starter) deal. My understanding is that it's all very preliminary at this point. The...
Yes and the most frustrating thing is that Weaver was originally a White Sox too. Odalis Perez had an off year last season but he showed some promise two...
People have been saying that for a long time, but the agents and the union as long as they're sucking at the trough are never going to stand for any kind of...
I'd love to dump Koch on the Mets, or ANYONE for that matter, but I'm not holding my breath, as for the Uribe deal I still don't understand it. I might...
John, I don't know, Marte didn't bring shivers of terror for me, don't get me wrong I'm sorry to see 'Flash' go, but I think the Yanks overpaid him. John...
Yeah, but we've seen Steinbrenner load up on high priced talent before and end up as an also-ran. It could happen again Mark <markphillips@...> wrote:Down...
The rumor I keep hearing about PK to the Dodgers is for pitcher Odalis Perez, although I haven't heard any more rumblings about it for a while. Mark Phillips...
I haven't heard anything on the tradefront for a couple days. I heard that Kenny is offering Colon arbitration just in case he does sign elsewhere, the Sox at...
I'd like to see the Sox keep Colon too, but I think this is just a ploy so we can get a draft pick if he signs elsewhere. Although I haven't been reading that...

"The club holds an option at $9.5 million for 2007 with a $1 million buyout." So theoretically it could be a 4 yr/$27.5M if the White Sox choose. Still a...
And in the long run I think we got the better of the deal, Colon proved that he's not as good as he used to be, and I think in the end the Angels will end up...
