ISF beat u to it.

ISF put it in the wrong thread. White Sox trades belong here. Not in "Around Baseball".

He still beat you to it.

Speaking of White Sox Great Greg Norton, here he gets ejected standing up for his Zephyrs. (Sorry about slow link w/ ad, but hey it's the friggin' minors). I like how he can't even exit via the dugout.

Robert Blake. Another guy with the nickname, "the Killer."

It's the minor leagues so ask msf!

It actually kicked in much faster when I went back to it a second time, after giving up the first time. Why that happened, I know not.

Well, you, Blackie, and I were probably trying to view it at the same time.
I'm guessing that's about 300% of the intended allocated bandwidth for that particular video.

hhhaaaaha- I'd be curious to know how many views that's gotten. I mean, if there were any, beyond the three of us and maybe Mrs. Norton. Btw, Mrs. Norton looks like a cutey!

You are going to be SOOOOOOOOOOO jealous when he accepts my request!

Foolish for me to think there were a whole bunch of Sox trades

Juan pizzarro · « **Reply #717 on:** November 08, 2012, 08:13:17 pm »

On the Nats Board fans were proposing trading Morse, Espinosa, and their top prospect Anthony Rendon (3B) for Gavin and DeAza. I'd do the trade if they offered Tyler Moore instead of Morse.

WshflThinking · « **Reply #718 on:** November 09, 2012, 09:12:28 am »

I kinda like that idea beings we desperately need a 3Bman.

BlackSox · « **Reply #719 on:** November 09, 2012, 10:56:46 am »

Four rival executives said they believe the White Sox are open to trades of second baseman Gordon Beckham, outfielders Alejandro De Aza and Dayan Viciedo and starting pitcher Gavin Floyd.

Floyd is the only one of those four that I'd be willing to part with. From a stand-alone perspective at least, not factoring in what the Sox might be getting in return.

msf · « **Reply #721 on:** November 09, 2012, 12:42:14 pm »

One negative for Viciedo is that Boras is his agent. That makes it tough to project us keeping him past his FA year. I would like to hang onto Floyd, I like him for his innings and the fact he looked very good late. He won some big games, and he looked different, confident for a change.

Method · « **Reply #722 on:** November 09, 2012, 12:48:22 pm »

Dayan + for Shields!

Make it happen!

True but Viciedo has accumulated only 1.123 years of MLB service time so he is five seasons away from free agency. Unless the White Sox receive a blockbuster offer for him there is plenty of time left to trade him down the road. Especially when you consider they only have to pay him $2.8 million this season (80% of the $3.5M he made in 2012).

Wonder if she knows the family history
