  1. I knew they were bad, but jesus. That's awful.
  2. Yankees are interested now. Probably pissed for losing out on Lee and Harden. Maybe this makes them more likely to make a bigger offer:
  3. That's what I like to hear. All that remains to be seen is if Hendry can get everything he can for them. Here's to hoping other teams overvalue Theriot's grit.
  4. Dan Haren>>John Lackey. Angels didn't really give up all that much. Nice deal for them.
  5. In theory it's a great idea. But I imagine we'd have to at least pick up a healthy portion of Fukudome's contract.
  6. From DeLuca: http://www.suntimes.com/sports/baseball/cubs/2528230,ted-lilly-trade-talks-cubs-072310.article
  7. The Royals named Wilson Betemit as their third baseman for the rest of the year. Gordon gets to rot in AAA.
  8. I know the Angels needed some offense from the hot corner, but I think they gave up a little too much.
  9. Traded by Chicago Cubs with Jamie Moyer and Drew Hall to Texas Rangers in exchange for Mitch Williams, Paul Kilgus, Steve Wilson, Curt Wilkerson, Luis Benitez and Pablo Delgado (December 5, 1988). Great trade
  10. Would be good for the Rays. Another slugger for the middle of their order and they have plenty of prospects so unloading a few wouldn't crush them.
  11. Maybe they shift Guillen to third and we trade them Theriot? They've shown interest in him already.
  12. Yeah, sucks to pitch well for a team that won't score runs. Hopefully for Strasburg, Dunn stays, Zimmerman keeps hitting and Harper breezes through the minors.
  13. Let's hope this is just the beginning. His OBP isn't ridiculously high, but I'm pleasantly surprised by his plate discipline at such a young age at the big league level. He's only gonna get better.
  14. Also, Flyers get owned. Gagne is still a good player. Solid deal for the Lightning.
  15. If you say so. Looks like the deal is $102 million over 17 years and only $1 million per year for the last seven. That makes for a cap hit of only $6 million a year. Kovalchuk gets his $100 million and the Devils get him at an affordable rate.
  16. It's not gonna be $150 mil. ESPN changed its report. It'll likely be 17 years, $100 million and front loaded. It'll lesson the cap hit and makes it so he won't be earning $7 million a year when he's 40. I'm excited. But now I wonder what Lou does to dump salary. I'm think he ships off Rolston, White and Zubrus for a bag of pucks. Rolston isn't good anymore and is overpaid. White is basically useless. And Zubrus is a solid defensive forward but is making too much.
  17. I wouldn't. It's kinda hard to sell high on a young pitcher who's having success and was a good prospect before making his big-league debut because he can continue to get better. His peripherals may be weird, but that doesn't mean you trade him.
  18. Yeah, but I don't think he'll be an All Star this year.
