White Sox armed to deal with Yankees

Soooo...only Peavy and Buehrle are untouchable for trades???

I hear Kevin Brown is making a comeback. It's destiny.

ChiSox are sitting in a position of strength. No need to rush on this one. You can never have enough starting pitching, and you don't want to be retooling the fellow you may end up facing in the playoffs. I could be wrong, but I can't see anything happening. Yankees may just have to do it the old fashioned way - grow their own.

Another worthless scenario of an x team that the Yankees will want to trade for pitching. Until it happens, these rumors are worthless.

Nothing else much for them to write about at this point. The Sox don't need to deal and I can't see them trading for Joba Chamberlain under any condition.

As a yankee fan I hope they do. Good year to sit back and see what it looks like in August. If you cannot get a real proven top starter, then the heck with it.

I assume Woody's Boy is referring to the Red Sox, in which case I agree. I also agree that these rumors are just worthless speculation.

I agree.

Until Mark Buehrle is in the mix this is a non-story as far as I'm concerned...

Yankees are desperate. Maybe The Rocket considers coming back to clean up his image!

Hmmm, yawn. In other news, I got out of bed this morning and went to work.

Unless the Yankees want to give up Brent Gardner for Floyd or Peavy, I dont think Sox are interested. We got a great chance of making a deep playoff run and there is no reason to help out the Yankees until they make a desperate trade.

as a twins fan i would love to see the white sox move one of their starters and count on peavy for 30 starts.

Exactly! that's what I been say'n. The Yankees don't go nothin, except maybe a catcher Atro says LOL.

You know nothing about the Yankees farm system. Once again I will try to help you. This is from Baseball America. The system is actually quite good. Rated top 10. Now here ya go. I hope they make no trades. Why do YOU think some teams want to trade with THEM?

..."In addition to using their wallet, the Yankees also could use their farm system to improve their big league club. They have the talent and depth to put together attractive trade packages, with three attractive catchers (Jesus Montero, Gary Sanchez, Austin Romine), plenty of up-the-middle talent (Nunez, outfielder Slade Heathcott and 2010 draftees Cito Culver and Mason Williams) and a bevy of righthanded pitchers (Betances, Brackman, Hector Noesi, Nova). The system's only significant shortages appear to be corner bats, where Laird stands out significantly, and lefthanded pitching, where Manny Banuelos is the lone legitimate prospect."

And here is the top 10. Add in Sanchez is projected by pro scouts to be the yankees catcher in 2014 and Montero the DH. Learn before you make statements. Bse it on facts. Thats all. Back it up.

1. Jesus Montero, c
2. Gary Sanchez, c
3. Dellin Betances, rhp
4. Manny Banuelos, lhp
5. Andrew Brackman, rhp
6. Austin Romine, c
7. Hector Noesi, rhp
8. Eduardo Nunez, ss/3b
9. Slade Heathcott, of
10. Brandon Laird, 3b

Sanchez is the guy teams want badly. Not gonna happen. The red sox would give their right nut to have catchers in their system worth anything.

Chisox do have nice arms
