Done Deal: White Sox Obtain Youkilis

[TheChicagoFan]

For doing his job? When did this all start? Was it around affirmative action?

yeah. Meaning people shouldn't bust his chops for not trying. Ultimately he's going to do what's best for the team. Trying should get him some credit.

Not trying he should get attacked. Trying is his job. Getting a great deal credit. Robbing a team praises up the ying yang

So you'll basically never give him credit. Okay.

Rumor: Youkilis traded to the White Sox.

from where?

 

[dabynsky]

From the past week I think...

 

[DewsSox79]

i say its dodgers.

Goldstein joins in and says that since nobody knows it might be Sox because deals are usually in stealth.

 

[waldo7239117]

It's not the Dodgers.

So you're saying he'll never make a good deal or rob a team? Then yes no credit

Sox or indians, imo.

 

[dabynsky]

That is the first I've seen of today pointing to the Sox and basically it is because there is no information it is the Sox. He could be right certainly, but it seems hardly like a smoking gun.

 

[dabynsky]

There was some talk the Braves might get involved, but that seems like a real longshot.

Well isn't that still his job?

 

[DewsSox79]

there is no movement caught by camera or said by the announcers on the white sox. if thornton or anyone left the BP im sure something would be said. we are 0-0 in the 9th so if its tied in extras we will know if we are missing a guy quickly.

Youk to Indians is the latest report:

[TheChicagoFan]

So just because nobody from the Sox has left the bullpen he's not going to the Sox?

I wouldn't be so sure. Not saying Sox is 100%, but doesn't mean there's no chance.

couldn't it just be a low-end spec and cash, tho?

maybe. thought they would want a mlb ready guy.

•Danny Knobler of CBSSports.com tweets he doesn't know where Youkilis is headed, but it's not the Dodgers.

rumors now its the pirates.

 

[dabynsky]

Pirates would be a real good fit.
