No one's taking Jenks. KW had tried for years but to no dice.
KW never tried to trade him, teams have been wanting him for the previous few years. WTF are you talking about?

Hudson is what is stopping the deal they had been close to before. The Brewers don't think Hudson is as good as he is, they have the other prospects agreed upon.
KW's hesitance to including Beckham in the deal is what is holding it up more.

Manny Parra sucks. Put down the drugs Got teeth.

Hence the "crappy pitcher included with Fielder" part, dumbass.

No, KW has tried to deal Jenks. I remember reading about it but there were not takers. I'm positive about that.

Yea, just like how you're "grampa" told you he heard in the paper that Castro is going to win the ROY :turrible:

Trust me, teams have been wanting him since his sophomore year.

No, he hasn't. In fact, over the last off-season (or maybe it was two years ago, whenever Jenks had a solid year but was due big money in arbitration...i.e. the perfect time to sell high on him), KW blustered at the notion of moving Jenks. So now, because of his complete resistance to trading "established" MLB players for future value (Jenks was/is just a big fat guy that threw really hard sometimes, they don't tend to age well), we are stuck with another high-salaried, shitty reliever.

For as many "hits" as KW has, he has just as many completely atrocious misses. For instance, KW had control of all of the following players at points in his career (he promptly traded them to Oakland for shit): Chad Bradford, Keith Foulke and Ray Durham. All fabulous deals. :rolleyes:

Wasn't Jenks supposed to go to New York in a proposed deal for Carlos Beltran?

I've not joking and I've heard that. Maybe a bs a rumor but I heard it on TV also. Why would I lie about that? My grampa read about Castro for ROY in the Tribune.

You're waldo, why wouldn't you lie? You're seriously going to try to tell me and Lefty that we are wrong, two close-followers of the White Sox, when you don't even know a lot about your own team?

I can go on MLBTR and look for teams that have pursued Jenks over the last few years because I guarantee you I will find some articles.

waldo, they are right.

And how would the Tribune know who was going to win ROY half-way through the season and before the decision is made?

And Got Teeth? is right.

I remember about 8 years ago when KW couldve pulled off a deal for Mo Rivera for Keith Foulke but didnt. Atleast i think he was the GM at the time. It was about 2000
