I sent BA an email just for the heck of it, asking about general system placement and where McNutt would rank. Since I didn't ask them for the right to post their reply, I'll simply paraphrase and say that Callis said we're more middle of the pack, and McNutt would be top 10 in the Sox system. Someone should uh ... let Gammons know.

 

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM

Howie Kendrick, Chone Figgins, Delmon Young?

 

Not delmon. Da meat tree.

Is he still in a Blo-No jail? haha

 

Does a 300lb diabetic really count as swag?

 

Have you ever killed a man over fruit by da foot?

What has this thread become? I feel like someone's about to mention Billy Dee Williams for the first time ever on a baseball message board.

THURSDAY, May 21: In his office, Phillips waits for the call. He grows increasingly anxious. Is something else going on? Is Piazza heading elsewhere?

Unbeknownst to him, the Cubs have stepped up and offered prize catching prospect Pat Kline and right-handed pitcher Jeremi Gonzalez, according to a source. The Marlins reportedly are pushing for Todd Noel, a 19-year-old Class A phenom.

Finally, Dombrowski calls in the afternoon, says he needs more time. Phillips has to chill. The wait is interminable.

FRIDAY, May 22d: The Florida GM calls at 1 p.m. and makes a counterproposal. Phillips and his baseball people re-convene. Two more calls ensue. Phillips pushes to get a Marlins' prospect in return. "Steve, we're moving. We're moving quickly. This is it," Dombrowski said.

In Florida, Piazza gets a call from his agent, Dan Lozano, who has just spoken to Dombrowski. "You're heading to Chicago. That's how it looks now."

Dombrowski and Phillips are on the phone again. The Met offer consists of Preston Wilson, Ed Yarnall and a player to be named later (Geoff Goetz). Dombrowski finally agrees. Phillips calls Wilpon and Doubleday and immediately tries to reach Hundley, but he's already left for the ballpark.

Lozano calls back Piazza, who is in the shower. His father, Vince, hands him the cordless phone. "We're going to the Mets," Lozano told him.

"Are you kidding?" Piazza said.

 

 

lol they spelled Cline wrong, but yea...

Did anyone notice the part of that Levine piece where it says Ricketts had been in touch, informally, with Byrnes as far back as spring training? Wo.

Gammons is bitter due to the current state of his RSox and the fact that Epstein would dare to leave.

Without you know who, there would be no swag.

Besides.....if McNutt is nothing special then they wouldn't be so upset if they didn't get him and wouldn't push so hard.

 

Gammons is a tool and an RSox homer.

This thread has simply become as nonsensical as the process for hiring Theo has become.
