Yankees get Jerry Hairston Jr.
Yahoo's live blog reports that the Yankees gave up..........Austin Jackson. I shit you not. There is absolutely no way that is accurate though, as the writer finds it hard to believe and is working to get accurate information. But if it was, ROFL Yankees. |

ESPNews said there might be a deal announced soon sending Roy Halladay to the Angels. Details are getting confirmed. Joe Saunders and 3 others going to Toronto.

Like the Martinez trade but Red Sox just traded LaRoche for Kotchman, what the fuck? I wonder if they got something else going

Yeah, still not sure if it's true. They've said nothing about it on MLB Network, one would think they would have mentioned it was close by now...even if it wasn't 100%.

Ken Davidoff of Newsday (via Twitter) says the Reds will receive minor league catcher Chase Weems.
...how the FUCK that other guy reported the Yanks were giving up Austin Jackson for fucking Jerry Hairston Jr. is beyond me. |

Seriously have no idea who you're talking about. Juan Francisco is only 22 and he's not ready for the majors yet. The only other 3B is Encarnacion but it can't be him because he's fucking terrible.

Jerry FUCKING Hairston?! That's what I yelled when I heard this movie coming home after leaving the movie theatre. Mind you I had the top down to my car so I probably got a few looks.
We ask for a bullpen arm. We get a better version of Cody Ransom. Bad move IMO. I hope we gave up next to nothing. Oh, and mind you that Shelly Duncan got called up. Probably gonna get back on the bus now. |

What the fuck...Jon Heyman reports Jake Peavy to the White Sox. Peavy might be out for the year FFS. I thought DL'ed players couldn't be traded.

It's official, no Halladay deal happened. Jays and Angels got close but nothing could be agreed upon.

I guess the Sox and Jays had a Halladay deal going but it fell through right at the end. It was Bucholz and change for him, and the Jays asked for Bard to call it a deal. The Sox said no Bard, and the Jays just gave up I guess.
I had a feeling Bard was going to be the deal breaker. I would have loved to get Halladay, but Theo probably made the right choice. |

I think Encanacion is solid. Not as good as Rolen, but by the time the reds are contenders, Rolen will be long retired. I just dont get the adding a vet at this point. I dunno.

Encarnacion will never be anything. He's an occasionally decent hitter, a god awful fielder, and as brittle at 26 as Rolen is at 35. Words cannot begin to describe how happy I am that not only the Reds are rid of that trainwreck, but they actually got someone decent in return.
I'm much more bummed about losing Hairston than I am about Edwin. |

Deflating loss last night. 2-2 tie in the 8th, Sean Green loads the bases with no outs, he induces a double play getting the force at home and at first...then promptly throws a wild pitch, making it 3-2 Diamondbacks and ultimately it was the deciding run.

Interesting thing in the Os/Red Sox game
The Sox scored 14 runs on 17 hits in just 5 innings..you'd think the Starter for the Red Sox (Clay Buchholz) would be able to get a win out of that but he got pulled after 4+ IP giving up 7 runs of his own, but still up 14-7. |
