Around SBN: Chan Sung Jung Wins Thriller Over Dustin Poirier

Hat tip to dctwin, who brought this Jon Heyman Twitter update to my attention: it sounds like the Giants could be circling Sanchez in serious trade discussions.

Yikes.

Yeah, I can see how a change of scenery might help Anderson. But Kotsay’s pretty much washed up. At least Anderson got his wish, maybe the Sox were just willing to do that. Kotsay provides nothing at this point.

makes sense to me

since i was under the impression that the white sox prefer their players to be old, hobbled and past their prime.

and yet they stand a game ahead of the Twins in the standings

our young bucks better get moving or the musty old whities might finish ahead of the Twins.

and nobody

wants to be stuck behind musty, crusty old tighy whities.

WHo's better Kotsay or Podsednic?

It’s a toss up. They both suck.

Damn

and the Twins aren’t the type of team to outbid anyone either

Call me crazy...

But I like a Scutaro/Downs trade better anyway. I just wish the Halladay epic would wind down so we can deal with the Jays. If nothing else, it would help our bargaining position with the Pirates to have another viable option out there.

Agreed

Scutaro might be a little less than Sanchez but I think Downs would be an improvment over any bullpen help the Pirates could provide.

oh and you're crazy

badump dump, don’t forget to tip your waitress.

The latest

Sorry, it’s late in the day and I feel more compelled to pass them along than to do any more work.
Dejan Kovacevic, reporter for the Pittsburgh Post Gazette says, among other updates, that the Twins are still in it, though talks have been ongoing with the Giants:

Neither Wilson nor Sanchez in the Pirates' lineup tonight

Though Sanchez is banged up, so his absence may well be injury related. Wilson, not so much… If nothing else, it is further fuel for the Tuesday evening fire.

by dctwin on Jul 28, 2009 6:56 PM EDT up reply actions  

we should just take them both

:-O

I read somewhere that Sanchez and Wilson are great friends and would love to play together

Well that has MN

written all over it. We have the BFF’s in M&M, and now we could get 2 new BFF’s?
It would be very bromantic of us to sign them.
