They wouldn't have had to pay him that contract if they never let him hit free agency. They should have resigned him a year ago and that is what I'm most angry about.

"Kenny"

Are the Sox now the WORST team overall in the league?

1. Shit ML roster
2. Shit farm system
3. Shit magt team

Wow. What a joke. And this team won it all 6 years ago? Damn!

White Sox, Jays Talked Quentin, Danks, Beckham
By Luke Adams [December 11 at 2:42pm CST]
2:42pm: Richard Griffin of the Toronto Star adds (via Twitter) that the two sides also discussed possible matchups for John Danks and Gordon Beckham, but in the end Toronto ended up settling on Santos "for now."

10:46am: The White Sox and Blue Jays have discussed a trade involving Carlos Quentin, tweets Jon Heyman of MLB Network. However, Heyman adds that talks appear to have cooled, as the White Sox are seeking other suitors.

With the White Sox looking to rebuild, Quentin is one of many veterans that could be had in the right deal this offseason. The Padres, Red Sox, and Orioles are among the teams reported to have had interest in the 29-year-old.

The Blue Jays and White Sox have already worked out one trade this offseason, swapping Sergio Santos and Nestor Molina during this week's Winter Meetings

Report: Kerry Wood Almost Signed With White Sox

(CBS) Kerry Wood was seriously considering signing with the White Sox and if it wasn’t for one last meeting with the Cubs, the reliever may have ended up on the South Side of town, according to CSNChicago.com’s David Kaplan.

For the second straight season, the White Sox pursued Wood, but this time they almost got him. Last year, Wood turned down the White Sox’ 2-year, $10 million deal in favor of the Cubs’ 1-year, $1.5 million deal, according to the report, but this year, as talks with the Cubs stalled, he considered making the jump.

Terms of the White Sox’s offer were not revealed in the report, but eventually Wood had one last meeting with Tom Ricketts and Theo Epstein and decided to stay with the Cubs.

I don't believe this report for a second. The Sox are shedding money from the bullpen, not adding to it.

Other than sticking up a big middle finger to Cubs fans it wouldn't have made sense. Last year it made a lot of sense. This wouldn't have been a good move for Wood either. The same fans who love him today would hate him because they would see him as a trader.

Kaplan is an idiot and rarely has correct info. Though when Kenny gets his mind set on getting somebody, he usually does no matter when it happens...

So what you are saying is this could be BS and it could be true. Could be 70 wins. Could be 90 wins. :wink:

This is just Jerry being a dick. Probably just bitter that the Cubs have an elite front office now and his GM still has his son that he inexplicably drafted in the high levels of the minor league system.
