5doors-Now I didn't hear that one! I heard Damon and Kim for Beltran. That I could handle I doubt they would part with Lowe and Damon. So hard to trade Kim cause he sucks ass so bad!

gary dennis of channel 4 boston was interviewing damon about it.
damons reply is that is a business and he'd go wherever and play.
12:25 this lunch time news.
will try and watch the 6 o clock report

plus it would make more sense to send lowe cause he's a free agent end of the year

I also heard damon and Kim

But people would be crazy to take kim on - I believe he has to get paid for a few more years as well. Too big a risk I dont think anyone would do it.

I think lowe should be a damn closer - he cant handle the starter pressure - at least not in a major market.

maybe KC will use him as their closer if this is true...

new update from boston sports radio.it seems it would be kim and damon to kansas city for beltran
lowe to seattle for freddy garcia is what there saying now

NEWPORT · May 18, 2004

The LOWE rumor has been around for awhile...Insiders say he is becoming the head case he was three years ago. He needs to go. Damon is great in the clubhouse, and that concerns me, but he seems somewhat dis interested this year, and could be a good move

KIM for HILLENBRAND was a Fvking DEBACLE the day it happened. I have been shouting that since that day
