White Sox Trade Jon Garland For Orlando Cabrera
2007-11-20 06:34:00 UPDATE: Ken Rosenthal reports that the White Sox received $1.5MM in the deal. It certainly seems that the Sox are clearing payroll for Torii Hunter. Mark Gonzales notes that while the Sox hope to sign Cabrera long-term, they'll still benefit from this trade if they don't. Cabrera is likely to be a Type A a year from now while Garland will probably be a B. According to Mark Gonzales of the Chicago Tribune, the White Sox acquired shortstop Orlando Cabrera for starter Jon Garland today. In a vacuum, this seems like a pretty even swap to me. Just comparing the two players involved, it's fair. Garland is a solid if not spectacular starter, and Cabrera is the same at shortstop. Both players' contracts run through 2008. Garland is at $12MM and Cabrera $9MM, so the Sox save a few bucks here. Plus, they will get some cash from the Angels. But trades aren't made in a vacuum; you have to look at their effects on the teams involved. The White...

MLB Trade: Jon Garland For Orlando Cabrera
2007-11-19 22:16:00 The Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim and the Chicago White Sox completed a one-for-one trade in which the Angles send Gold Glove SS Orlando Cabrera to the South Side for SP Jon Garland. With each player under contract through the 2008 season, neither team gains any cost certainty beyond the 2008 season. More interestingly is both teams added a player to positions that each have already addressed. The White Sox recently signed last season's SS Juan Uribe, and the Angels already have a starting five of John Lackey, Kelvim Escobar, Jered Weaver, Joe Saunders and Ervin Santana. For the White Sox, Uribe either becomes trade bait or slides over to his left or right depending on what the White Sox do with 3B Joe Crede. While Miguel Cabrera would certianly qualify as a "big fish", this deal didn't do much for the prospects of a trade with the Florida Marlins. The Marlins would need a 3B if Cabrera was dealt, and neither Joe Crede, Juan Uribe or Orlando Cabrera fits th...

Jon Garland For Brian Fuentes?
2007-09-09 19:44:00 As you know, Kenny Williams is looking for two relievers (one proven) for starter Jon Garland. Part of the motivation is moving Garland's $12MM salary in his last year before free agency. You may also recall that the Rockies inquired on Mark Buehrle, Jose Contreras, and Garland this summer. Talks stalled when the White Sox insisted on southpaw starter Franklin Morales or third baseman Ian Stewart. According to Troy E. Renck of the Denver Post, the teams could re-engage in talks involving Garland. The discussion would begin with lefty veteran reliever Brian Fuentes. Renck believes Fuentes will make about $7MM in '08, his last year before free agency. So the White Sox would trim roughly $5MM from the payroll with such a move. Perhaps Williams would ask for 23 year-old reliever Juan Morillo to complete the deal. Morillo fits the "young reliever with closer potential" mold and was reportedly clocked at 104 mph a few years back ...

White Sox May Shop Jon Garland
2007-09-07 15:33:00 The White Sox have shopped Jon Garland around in the past. You may recall the failed deal with the Astros at the last Winter Meetings - the Sox were supposed to receive Jason Hirsh, Willy Taveras, and Taylor Buchholz. There was even a press conference scheduled for that one. Apparently the deal died when Kenny Williams demanded Hunter Pence as well. Many teams have had discussions with the White Sox regarding Garland since then. The Red Sox, Rockies, Braves, Yankees, Mariners, Dodgers, Mets, and Phillies all expressed interest. The Braves reportedly offered Edgar Renteria and a top pitching prospect (pre-Teixeira trade) and were denied. According to Joe Cowley of the Chicago Sun-Times, Garland is "without question that most likely starter to be moved" by Kenny Williams this winter. He says Williams will shoot for at least two relievers, one proven. Garland makes $12MM in 2008 before reaching free agency. Garland's got a 4.75...
