[killthegoat06]

So Will Carroll (Rotoworld, BP) says Manny, hermida, bay deal is done. Gammons says talks are ongoing and trade is unlikely.

 

Wait, whoa, what?

Rotoworld:

 

Quote:

Will Carroll of Baseball Prospectus says the Red Sox, Pirates and Marlins have agreed to a three-team Manny Ramirez deal, pending Ramirez waiving his no-trade clause and league approval.

Carroll, not normally one of our preferred sources, has the Red Sox getting Jason Bay and John Grabow; the Marlins acquiring Ramirez, cash and a prospect from the Red Sox and the Pirates picking up Jeremy Hermida, two prospects from the Marlins and one from Boston.

 

 

 

But Gammons says,

 

Quote:

The Manny Ramirez trade conversations are expected to continue into Thursday, according to a source. Because it's a very complicated deal, involving a player who has the right to veto the trade and other parts, it is still unlikely to happen. But the negotiations will go on.

It would be weird having the Marlins get a star player from the Red Sox. It would also be lovely to have Bay out of the division.

 

Especially before this weekend. We must sweep them if this happens. No Laroche, Bay and Nady gone. Who is the lineup after McPIA?

I don't know if Hermida would kill the Cubs more or less than Bay.

More if he plays like he did last series.

Latest rumored deal is Manny to Florida, Bay to the Red Sox, and Hermida to the Pirates. Or something thereabouts.

Eh, it's happened with Mike Piazza.

[Have a seat, Neifi]

Bizarre to think Manny would actually gain games in the standings by going from Boston to Miami.

[Magnetic Curses]

how does a clown like hart take that pitch?

[chuckywang]

FINISH HIM!

Mike Piazza. They may have done that with Mike Hampton too.

It'd be hilarious if they turned around and traded him to the Yankees.

[kujay]

Hart vs. Lee in the I'd-Rather-Be-Somewhere-Else Bowl tonight.

 

I think Hart wins. Somehow.

[Derwood]

Dempster has somehow put 4 months of "lightning in a bottle" together. I love it, but fully expect it to not happen next year

Piazza played a couple of days with the Marlins. I don't believe Hampton did.

[Little Slide Rooter]

Man, this starting staff is turning out to be everything the '04 rotation was supposed to be.

Wow. I have to think Manny would be all over that.

I would then trade him to the Yankees for Hughes.

He won't be here next year so that's not an issue.

Great, so now we have to deal with Hermida again? I suppose with Bay and Nady gone, I'll accept it.

that would work for me.

[illiniguy]

Good lord, the cardinals are like genital warts.

[rawaction]

Marlins seem to be getting screwed in that trade, and they would be getting the best player.
