Yankees sign Kosuke Fukudome to a minor league deal. He'll be with the Nomad Yankees for now.
Nice pick-up. If things don't pan out with Gardner, we can always go to him. |

Mets game just went to commercial completely out of the blue. Apparently the power went out at Turner Field.

Chipper Jones with his 49th career HR against the Mets.
Still not entirely sure why the Mets are actually going to HONOR him when he plays his last game in NY. |

Good game by Morales and win by the Red Sox against the Rays.
Since Blue Jays lost, Red Sox back out of the cellar and now just 1.5 games behind the Os and Indians for the 2nd Wild Card spot. |

I like what I see out of this Josh Edgin kid. The Mets have needed a second lefty forth the longest time and he seems to have a serious arm. ERA sitting at 13.50 after his big league debut but it's misleading. Don't even really blame him.

Martin Prado is starting at Shortstop for the Braves at least for right now. Just this year, Prado has played innings at 1st, 2nd, SS, 3rd, and LF. 2nd is the only position of those five he hasn't started a game at at least once this year as well. Crazy.

Jays need bullpen AND starter help..... AAA & AA guys are not cutting the mustard......very close to blowing it to Cleveland after and 8-run inning in the third......

You're right umps, it was a trap. But Prado still got TAGGED just standing around. You can't just override that. Ugh.

Dickey with a shitty game for the 3rd time in his last 4 starts.
And the offense still gets him off the hook. THE STREAK LIVES |

Cubs should consider keeping Dempster unless they get blown away with an offer. He's having a magical season right now and he's a legit CY Young candidate.

Bob Geren showed today why he's no longer a manager. Why he thought it would be a good idea to bring in Parnell for a 5 out save is beyond me.

They risk the possibility of the longer they keep him, teams might start dropping out which would impact what the Cubs can demand in the long run. His value is at its highest right now so it makes sense to try to trade him as soon as possible for something really good in return.
People on ESPN's message boards already proclaiming he's going to the Yankees after seeing the teams revealed so far in the list even though other teams have better farm systems. |

And Prado is starting at 2B today. Seriously, I will be upset if we lose him to FA next year. I'm guessing he is our long term 3B plan, but we will see.

Prado is versatile, but not all that great. He's good, yes, but he's not indispensible.

I want to see Prado play all 9 positions in a single game at some point. Should totally do that if their Game 162 ends up being meaningless.

And I'll steal this from a Braves article today: Prado is a .980 career fielder -- .994 at first base, .982 at second and .963 at third. He's a .983 outfielder, after one-plus year out there and while juggling the other spots. |

Seriously I'd love to see it. Prado starts in left, then goes center, right, 1st, 2nd, short, catching, and then he pitches the 8th inning. 3rd base is saved for the 9th so that they can give Chipper a sendoff before Prado takes over or something.

Aaaaaand I no longer want the Mets to be buyers. It's just not worth it. The entire team has just melted down.
They really don't have anything to sell. But mortgaging any piece of the future just isn't worth it at this point. Ah well, I've been waiting for this to come all year really. It was fun while it lasted. Looking forward to seeing Wheeler and Harvey soon. |
