It looks like he's going to be traded as Boston said they're giving the everyday 3rd base job to Will Middlebrooks. Youkilis is not having a very good year (.225/.311/.359) and he's a raging jackass but he would be an upgrade at 3rd for the Sox.

Youkilis is owed about $6 plus a $1M buyout which isn't too bad and with the free agent compensation rules wiped out it the Sox shouldn't have to give up too much in a trade.

I had never heard any talk of him being a raging asshole until he became mr. Kevin Brady.

He may be not so good now but "not so good" is better than "totally fucking terrible".

Do it. Do it.

I'd rather have Manny Ramirez with a butterfly net playing 3rd base.

I don't know how much buying they'll do, but they won't be selling.

So they're just trying their best to finish 81-81?

Im pretty sure they can do better than that without buying. Anyway, it probably wont take much more than .500 to win the division.

I think if they want a slight upgrade at 3rd they can do better than Youk.

Espn is saying the Sox are the frontrunners for him right now, fwiw.

I'll believe it when I see it.
First of all, Williams has NOT made his annual threat to make trades, nor has he knocked over a post game buffet table.

Youkilis for Dunn. Right now.

why?

Author:  Urlacher's missing neck [ Sat Jun 23, 2012 10:06 pm ]
Post subject:  Re: Kevin Youkilis

Youk would probably be a great pickup. He absolutely hates Valentine and doesn't give a shit right now. He is just going through the motions. If you can get Boston to pay most of his salary and only give up the crown jewel of the farm system in OF Kenneth Williams you would have a good deal...but there is no way Kenny would trade away a 5 tool prospect like Kenneth.

No way they'd take Dunn's contract back.

Post subject:  Re: Kevin Youkilis

Paying most of Youkilis's contract to trade him away would suck worse wouldnt it? I know it wont happen. But money aside, would that be a good trade for the Sox or the Sox? I'm thinkin Youkilis has a better upside and he's a better player period.

Kenneth Williams is hitting .236 in AA. If he were in the Cubs organization there would be 20 threads about him debating such things as who will induct him into the Hall of Fame, when will they retire his number and which corner they will put his statue.

Of course they want to print the playoff tickets. That's another reason not to be sellers. Get that cash in the bank and refuse to give it back when they don't make it.

I'l bet his percentage is a little higher when it comes to stolen car stereos.

Post subject:  Re: Kevin Youkilis

Red Sox will recevie a utility player and a pitcher.
