Why? It works for all teams.

we need a giant yawn emoticon

we already have a solid defensive backup catcher that cant really hit well. His name is Matt.

AJ Burnett vs Bronson Arroyo

Mike Lowell vs Sean Burroughs

 

downgrade in both aspects... even with Lowell's down year

Guys, just to mention this as a bit of a disclaimer. I didn't hear this with my own ears, however several sox boards and a friend of mine have mentioned it was on ESPN Radio.

 

Let's see what happens.

Burroughs isn't in the lineup for SD

no way this trade is accurate

i still dont get how it works for us... we get arroyo who is mediocre wen we could still have AJ then we get sean burroughs no way is he as good as mikey! mikey will break out of the slump you'll see! and then we get that minor leaguer in which i didnt even kno existed

Why is everyone so upset about Lowell?

 

Yes I like him alot and he was a good player, but he has been horrible this year and the second part of last year.

Some people just dont understand..

 

FOr the last time!!!!!! AJ IS GONE AFTER THE YEAR. And we got a GOOD YOUNG starter for him. Great move.

 

Lowell COSTS 7.5 MILLION! He has 4 HR in 300 AB. We can spend that on FAs next year.

 

I love it.

arroyo is only with us for next year then gone anyways Mikey, poor mikey

The Baseball Show is on ESPN Radio. It goes from 3 to 5 p.m. today. I had heard murmors of a 3-way deal.

I like burroughs.

 

arroyo can be good, especially if you can lock him up long term.

 

shoppach is meh, but you live with it....maybe move him along somewhere else, i dunno.

 

 

aj wasnt re-signing. lowell isnt the same player, this should help him tremendously playing in boston.

 

if this is true, I will always remember the memories and will root him on in boston.

 

aj can rot in hell for being an immature baby.

Agreed.

 

We should be able to do much better than one starter and a couple of minor leaguers for Burnett and Lowell.

 

This is not a good trade for the Marlins.

I like burroughs.

amen

Why is he gone? He wont comand the amount of Salary AJ will and the chance of us resigning Arroyo would be much higher

Trade rumors are like farts.....they smell, then they go away. This one is a SBD one.

And yet the FO hasn't fire Bill Robinson. They never gave Lowell a shot with a new hitting coach.

 

Apparently BR is more valuable then Mikey.

I like burroughs.

60 million dolllar payroll (not including Hampton/Pudge):

 

Going into next year:

 

+9.5 mil for Delgado

+1.0 Burroughs

+2.0 Arroyo

 

+12.5

 

60 + 12.5 = $72.5 Million without subtractions

 

Subtractions:

-8.0 for Leiter

-7.5 Lowell

-3.5 Burnett

-1.0 Jones

-3.0 Conine

-4.5 Encarnacion

-3.5 Gonzalez

-1.5 valdez

 

Total = $32.5 Million

 

72.5 - 32.5 = $40.0

 

Total Payroll Prior to next season= $40.0 MILLION (!)..... yea, we have some room to work with boys.

 

Am I right or am I wrong?

if this is true then we have become truly sellers this year.

this guy just made it up. ESPN radio doesnt report baseball trades from the nascar track!

860250[/snapback]

dude, dont come over to our board and callout one of our better posters here?

 

who do you think you are?

860265[/snapback]

 

not sure why you take it personal. I put ESPN radio on and they didnt mention it during their sportscenter updates.

agh the memorys of last years LA FLA trade thread that lasted like 2 days which i believe was started by dawg31

Some of Leiter's and half of Valdez's money is deferred.

Trade rumors are like farts.....they smell, then they go away. This one is a SBD one.

:thumbup

maybe it is just total bs and crap.

 

This doesnt address our bat/relief needs we were demanding here.

If this trade rumor was true, don't you think with the Red Sox involved that Gammons would be all over it? I have a hard time believing this one.
