Around SBN: Cal RB Jahvid Best Seriously Injured, Carted Off Field

The Sox might be shopping Bobby Jenks, might take a good amount of prospects but we have traded for bullpen "help" with them before (i.e. David Aardisma for Neal Cotts 07')

There's no way the Cubs could give the White Sox enough for Jenks.

Next?

Let your discretion be noted for the record...

…but Kenny Williams would drain the Cubs farm system out of pure spite alone.

I've committed to tweeting about the Cubs for the rest of the season. (Does that sound as ridiculous as I think it does?) Anyway, if you're on Twitter, you can follow me here.

Well

You clearly understand the difference between a fanshot and a fanpost. So thumbs up from me.

Tampa seems like a good fit for Jenks

The Cardinals already have a closer.

I cant believe they would trade Jenks.

What a mistake that would be. The guy is money, not just one of those closers whose in the role because no else is remotely good, so he piles up saves with a high ERA. Jenks is the real deal. I would think that if he was on the market the Yankees would spend a lot to get him as a long-term replacement for Mo.

Jenks is one of the few people on that team who has trade value.

Thus, if the Sox decide to blow up their team, he’s going to be one of the first to go.

Agree.......

and he will bring them a ton of prospects coming back.

For the Cubs to get him, Vitters would HAVE to be in the mix. I don’t see that happening.

I would not want to deal with the WS if there left side of the IF was Vitters and Beckham.

Does Soriano's defense at 2B really cost more runs than in LF?  He makes a lot fewer errors in LF since misplays and mental mistakes aren't figured into the stats, but I have to imagine that his mistakes are more physical at 2B.  Any thoughts?  Is there a statistic on this?
