Why it does seem like a long shot, I would have to imagine that Lou has got Jim on the phone 24/7 trying to get rid of jones/izturis/eyre. I mean all 3 are buried DEEP on the roster( :D ), with the BP taxed, how much longer can these three rot away on the bench when someone useful is at AAA? I say if you can get anybody to pay around half of any of their salaries and some crappy prospect do it and eat the cost. Whoever we call up will have a fresh new attitude that could only help this team that is already rolling. It may look bad on your part for the stupid contracts jim, but a good record this year would look a whole lot better! Get it done before the ASB!
