    I thought this was an actual rumor

    And I love alliterations, but I digress: I'd assume Fukudome might be a little easier to move now, especially since he's had a hot streak going. We'd obviously still have to pick up a good portion of his salary.

    It doesn't. That's why it happened. I liked Fontenot as a reserve, but I'm not too upset that he's gone. It's fun to see the Cajun Connection now playing for rivals.

    They already flushed him down the toilet.

    Agreed. After these recent blowouts, I can't even say we're playing for pride anymore. Let's just get ready for next year/the future. But they're gonna be nice and give Piniella what he asked for (to leave on his own terms). Hendry's just a stand-up guy. :roll:

    Rotoworld graded the deal:

    I could definitely see a waiver deal for Nady or Baker. I wonder, though, what the plans are for DeWitt. If they see him as the second baseman of the future, they'll likely look to deal Fontenot. However, if they see DeWitt as more of a utility type 2B/3B backup, they may choose to keep Fontenot. Agreed. Was just hoping it would happen today. I definitely think we'll see at least one of our other guys moved before the waiver deadline.

    The Pirates made out well today. They dumped Dotel and dead weight (Crosby, Church) for a decent catcher in Snyder and a couple of talented prospects. The Twins may have had the worst trade with the Capps deal, but the Dodgers had a bad deadline in terms of what they gave up for what they got.

    I'll miss Bobby Howry for looking like he was gonna kill everyone for the whereabouts of John Connor. But I won't miss him for his pitching.

    Not a bad trade. Not an awful one. But I was hoping for a little more. I have basically the same sentiment with everyone here. Also, disappointed no one else was dealt. I thought for sure at least Nady and one of Fontenot/Baker would be gone.

    I know. Posey, Strasburg, Garcia and Heyward would all be shoe-ins any other year. It's like the Marino QB draft class. Aren't as many options in the AL. Jackson and Boesch are the only ones coming to mind.

    Merge if needed. Johnson is MUCH better than Theriot.

    I thought the same thing.
  15. Post Count Padder
    12 runs over his last 1.1 innings. I feel for him.
  16. Post Count Padder
    Cheaper and six years younger. I think he improves to a better version of Fontenot. Not a huge upgrade, though.
  17. Post Count Padder
    Probably should be merged with Lilly trade thread. I'm getting kind of excited. I hope this isn't a letdown.
  18. Post Count Padder
    Maybe, maybe not. Austin Kearns was removed from the game tonight right before he was traded to the Yankees.
  19. Post Count Padder
    Ed Wade is as intelligent as a rotten melon. Astros fans have gotta be pissed. Within 48 hours they see two of their franchise's most beloved players shipped off for spare parts.
  20. Post Count Padder
    Olney is reporting the Dodgers and Cubs are closing in on a Lilly deal.
  21. Post Count Padder
    Stark says Yanks also inquired on Theriot.
  22. Post Count Padder
    Now, not really. But DeWitt is younger with more potential to improve.
  23. Post Count Padder
    Maybe Nady, though I don't know why they'd want the extra outfielder after getting Podsednik. I wish it were Theriot. Lilly and Theriot for DeWitt, Gordon and Ely wouldn't be a bad return at all.
