Decent pickup by them. The Phillies didnt have to give up much really, class A reliever Michael Dubee

[Cocos Disciples]

Didn't see this coming.

[Sox Fan In Indy]

Decent move, especially with Utley injured.

And thus the White Sox firesale begins.

Why would the White Sox just basically give up Iguchi he is still a solid player and can do alot for you at second base. Doesn't make sence to me I would have thought the White Sox would have gotten more for him.

Because it's a firesale.

Michael Dubee went to my high school. Really wasn't that great in high school. Average fastball, OK curveball, not much else.

 

Nepotism got him drafted.

Yep, the great fire sale, in which we traded Iguchi and Mackowiak.

 

Danny Richar is in the plans as the 2B, Iguchi will be a free agent, and there are no compensatory picks.

So, when is Ozzie going to get canned?

Eh, it was supposed to be a firesale. The White Sox probably would have been better off that way.
