I hear that Baseball Prospectus is reporting a possible trade between the teams. There trade rumor is Bobby Jenks and Jermaine Dye for Met top prospect Eduardo Rameriz, a ceterfielder that is supposedly a better player than current Twin terror Carlos Gomez, whom they got in the Johan Santana trade. Another player or two could be in the package coming to the Sox.

At least another player or 2. Kenny would not trade 2 proven AllStar caliber players for just a CF prospect.

I am still not clear on why the Sox would want to trade Jenks.

If they do, who will be the closer next year?

I would be very surprised if Jenks was moved this off season.

Even more importantly, where will they find a legitimate closer for 5 million?

Kerry Wood. I'm serious....

That would be interesting. We know Wood would like to stay in Chicago. I wonder if offering him a 1 or 2 year incentive laden deal has crossed Kenny's mind.

That would make sense, especially if they got him on a 1 year deal. They have a young pitcher in the minors who had 36 saves last season that they do see as a future closer.

Incentive laden? That is for guys who are trying to prove something. Wood went through an entire season closing at an all star level. He is going to get double digit millions per year on the next contract.

His injury history cannot be 100% ignored.

I'm sure there is another team out there that is willing to forget all about that.

I don't see it, especially with all the talk that the Anaheim Angels' Francisco Rodriguez may sign a three year contract with the New York Mets to replace injured closer Billy Wagner.

No. The Cubs let him go because they were done with him. Period.
