...to deal for a PITCHER! Last night was the 12th time this year that the sox allowed 7 or more runs. I think last night had to be the final straw. No more sittin back and waitin for Kenny Williams. In a season where the sox have a good chance of making the playoffs, he cant wait for young pitchers to develop. As a talk show host said last night, we cant waste this offense. We have all the parts but a rotation, so Kenny has to take some action.
The only players in that offense that I will not trade for a solid #2 pitcher are Konerko and Maggs. anyone else is fair game. Im not sure who is available right now, but that same talk show host gave a list of pitchers who might be available for the right price:
Paul Byrd
Jeff Suppan(not so sure if i want him though)
Kenny Rogers
Denny Neagle
Tom Glavine(he wouldnt be cheap and he might not even be available)
Id take almost any one of these guys for the sox rotation, and i would trade nearly any one to get him, or someone else who turns out to be available. I dont want to see this team even make it to the playoffs if theyre gonna go 3 and out. I want to get to the series or even the ALCS, and I think its the right time for Kenny to make it happen! The longer he waits, the more it will take to get a pitcher, so come on Kenny, pull the trigger!
