July 7, 200917 yr According to boston.com, the Red Sox ask about the availibility of Gaby Sanchez. 1. Gaby Sanchez, 1B, Marlins - The Red Sox inquired about the big righthanded hitter, who has spent the season at Triple A (New Orleans) after it was thought he’d start for the Marlins out of spring training. With Hanley Ramirez red-hot and a top pitching staff, Florida, which is serious about staying in the National League East race, is looking for bullpen pieces, but the Sox don’t seem to be in that mode at the moment. They didn't mentioned what the Red Sox were offering, but apparently it wasn't enough. Which isn't surprising since the Marlins value Sanchez highly and there is a hole in the order at third base. Sanchez is one of only two major league ready hitters in Triple-A, according to Beinfest. These type of trades can be scary because if the team is willing to move Sanchez it better pretty darn certain that they are only one or two pieces away from making it to the playoffs. And at this time, I don't think one can make that case
July 7, 200917 yr He's a Red Sox type of guy. Not surprising. Red Sox type of guy, lol. Sorry, but I have to ask it: what is a Red Sox type of guy? And don't say blue-collar, because every team values blue-collar players.

And don't say blue-collar, because every team values blue-collar players. Takes a lot of pitches, has a good eye for the strikezone, walks about as often as he strikes out. They love guys lack that.
July 7, 200917 yr They have a few bp arms I'd like to have but we really don't need that much bp help right now.
July 7, 200917 yr How about we send them Bonifacio instead... I wish the FO thought like this Doubt they'd get much for him anyway.
July 7, 200917 yr How about we send them Bonifacio instead... I wish the FO thought like this Doubt they'd get much for him anyway. who cares just get him out of here
July 7, 200917 yr How about we send them Bonifacio instead... And Pinto. and dont forget to throw in Hermida...
July 7, 200917 yr Pure speculation, but I'm guessing Delcarmen. They've been dangling him for 1B help all year.
July 7, 200917 yr Wondering why the Sox would inquire about Gaby when they have Lars Anderson... I guess they would want Gaby to play 3rd?
July 7, 200917 yr Speaking of relievers, Ayala pitched his first inning in relief tonight for NOLA, no runs, no hits, one strikeout.

July 7, 200917 yr Speaking of relievers, Ayala pitched his first inning in relief tonight for NOLA, no runs, no hits, one strikeout. I'm glad, we need him to do well at the major league level until Kiko and Lindy get back
July 7, 200917 yr Hell no. Let's give them Hermida and lock up Gaby for a while! This makes a lot of sense. Lets trade the 25 year old bust Hermida who has actually contributed nicely at this level against RHP this year, yet lets sign 25 YEAR OLD (oh my...same as Hermida) Gaby Sanchez for "a while." The same guy who projects to have not so great power for a corner infielder and is average at best, defensively. Also, we should do this b/c the Marlins didn't draft a 3B in the 1st round of the 2007 draft, who is currently hitting the ball well lately in the minors...a guy who is an actual prospect at the AGE OF 19. But yeah...we totally need Gaby long-term. Your logic is great. For all the bashing you give Hermida (the guy with an .805 .OPS coming into the night against RHP...but he's a joke b/c I mean we have sooooooo many guys with an .800 .OPS this year!...BUST!), you should consider bashing yourself a little more. Call me when you post something that is remotely close to making sense. (I just remembered you're the same idiot who thinks Maybin is already a bust, as well...*sigh*)
July 7, 200917 yr BTW, this article is nowhere to be found on boston.com and seems to come direct from/originated from a Marlins blog, so take that for what its worth.

(I just remembered you're the same idiot who thinks Maybin is already a bust, as well...*sigh*) I never once said he was a bust. I simply stated that he did not belong on the team and apparently I was right cause since his demotion, he ain't been back. He is in the Minors where he belongs.... pushing around umpires.

Or maybe because he was injured for a reasonably long spell. He is hitting .300 on the year for the Zephyrs and I guarantee he will be up with the Marlins reasonably soon. In fact I am so sure he will be on the Major League roster before the September callups that I am willing to make a bet with you waxheaven - name the terms.

Schnellders, thanks for at least being respectful. I have nothing against Maybin but the way he was hitting early in the year it was a wonder he lasted so long. I am certain he will be back before September and might even put up decent numbers so that bet would be useless. I would be willing to bet on his power numbers, though. So many figured he's someday be a 20+ HR guy. Where is the power?
