    The deal hit a snag when Scott Boras insisted on a 5-year, $50 million contract for the towel.

    @Steve U: So he's using the Darren Dreifort deal as a comparable, then? Considering Dreifort was about as useful to the Dodgers as a towel, I think they'd be wise take the deal.

    Thanks for making JP Riccardi look like Branch Rickey, Kenny.

    Who knew that an OF who fails with men on base would fail in a pennant race?

    @ManchuCandidate: Yeah, Kenny is a horrible general manager.

    He's only got a world series title and consistently been one of the most aggresive GMs in baseball, acquiring proven veteran players for almost nothing (the only prospect that he has dealt that has eventually done ANYTHING is Chris Young) AND signing guys who were given up on by other organizations but turn out to be diamonds in the rough (Thornton, Quentin).

    He has done all of this while rebuilding the team and keeping them relatively competitive at the same time. Sure this is partly because the division sucks, but still.

    And I love it when fans (or blog writers) complain about bad money/contracts a team takes on. Are you paying the players? No. Have those contracts caused the team to stop making moves to try to better the team? No. Is there a salary cap to worry about? No.

    Kenny is a top 5 GM.

    Good choice, Jake. Staying away from Kansas City will do wonders for your ERA.

    Kenny can't trade away Beckham. His one-year anniversary of turning pro hasn't come up yet, so he is unable to be traded.

    I bet he rejects it. San Diego or Chicago?

    Gordon Beckham is a stud, so of course I bet KW traded him.

    @Artie Fufkin: I know you were (partly) joking, but exactly what ex-Sox minor leaguers have been traded away and turned into "studs" for other teams?


    Kenny hits a hell of a lot more than he misses.

    I suspect him and John Rocker have some overlapping viewpoints in re: big cities, subways, etc.
