@ESPNBruceLevine Dempster told me he has expanded his list to Yanks and Texas as well as Dodgers.

My guess is yes, but we'll know in the next 77 minutes.

Theo is one stubborn SOB

 

Hendry would have dealt him two weeks ago for half a sandwich and a "get out of jail free" card.

 

I'm not sure the commissioner would have signed off on that.

Hendry would have held on to him out of respect and then not offered him a qualifying contract.

 

I swear to dog that nobody who complains about Hendry actually remembers how Hendry operated.

 

At least they aren't rude to their pets.

Oh, to be a fly on the wall in Theo or Jed's office right now...

#Dodgers position is that they have made deals without moving any of top 7-8 prospects. Will not move any of them for a rental like Dempster.

#Cubs are said to very much like 2 of #Yankees better low-down position players, Angelo Gumbs, Dante Bichette Jr. But not sure Yanks (cont)

 

Joel Sherman ‏@Joelsherman1

would give up prospect they like to just upgrade on Freddy Garcia. #Yankees #Cubs

 

Does this not take into account how bad Freddy Garcia has been and how good Dempster has been?

[mookie]

Yeah, good luck Dodgers. Suck it [expletive].

Haha, see, you say that....

 

Dodgers are gonna blink, if they really want Demp that badly.

I take it they didn't consider Eovaldi a prospect anymore because he was definitely in their top 3 otherwise.

Good luck in October with that rotation beyond Kershaw, Ned.

I once told the owner of the Grays I refused to be traded to certain teams and he laughed at my insolence and then shot me.

Yesterday I got a kick out of:

 

@OldHossRadborn

The only words I ever said to an opponent when standing on his base were the names of his children I'd fathered.

How did Richard Justice pass up the opportunity to go by the name "Dick Justice"?

Paul Sullivan ‏@PWSullivan

Great Chicagoans besides Demp: Jane Addams, Harold Washington, Frank Lloyd Wright, Studs Terkel, Ray Rayner, Mike Royko, Billy Corgan.

 

Sullivan is enjoying making fun of the Dempster going away party.

Down to the last hour.

Wow Span declined a trade to the Reds.

[hawkeyecub]

Harold Reynolds just claimed the favorite rumor he's heard is Demp + Garza for Upton.

 

Yeah, it's Harold Reynolds.

The Reds clog the bases too much, obviously.
