Drew Pomeranz, Alex White, and Matt McBride
which is a pretty sick return, but still |

Yeah, I'd ask for one more player. Maybe Kipnis or Chisenhall. I know that'd be a stretch, but the Rockies are in no need to dump Jimenez. Hopefully the deal works out for you guys. I love how the Indians are having an out of nowhere fluke season that has been on a slide since May, and yet they're getting a bit desperate and trying to dump prospects for a starting pitcher.
I like that they're trying to improve, but they are not the best team in that division and I don't believe in them at all. |

would love to get Chisenhall too, but Pomeranz and White should be a nice start for building a pitching staff that doesn't suck

The Orioles have given up 12 runs and 10 hits in the first inning.

Yankees are halfway to the Rangers magical 30 runs vs the Os and its not even out of the 2nd inning.

Tommy Hunter is probably shaking in his spikes knowing he has to try to pitch against some of the best hitters in the game in a division featuring some of the best hitter's parks in the game.

Ubaldo is pitching right now. If he does get traded, this is highly irregular that he'd still make this start.

Well him starting suggests that the deal is not done, and the Rockies were said to have Esmil Rogers warming in the pen just in case. He's getting clocked right now, though.
UPDATE: Ubaldo is getting hugs in the dugout accoring to MLBTR. Looks like he may officially be an Indian. |

Baldy to the Indians, eh. With a little luck he could right that ship and put them back in contention.
Either the Yankees are going to get Kuroda on the cheap, or it's going to be a really quiet day in the Bronx. |

I really feel like the Indians are overreacting to what has been a fluke season. The only reason they're even talking about contention is due to the ChiSox and Twins being complete failures, and the ChiSox might pull out a division win if they keep playing halfway decent.

Super busy day all of a sudden. Cleveland gets a nice piece but I still feel they're mortgaging their future a bit for a year where it's not even clear they can win the division.
Red Sox got that starter I was talking about, though Rich Harden is pretty injury prone. Hopefully he can hold up for them. Furcal would be a great pickup for the Cardinals. Guys is amazingly dynamic when he's healthy. |

That's a solid haul, Agua. I hate that these crappy looking "snap backs" are becoming so popular. I think they look like shit yet they're selling like hot cakes.

Looks like the Ubaldo to the Indians trade is a done deal.
IDK...I'm rooting for the Indians in the AL Central and all that, but I just don't feel too confident about this deal...I mean, it's kinda strange that the Rockies would want to deal Jimenez...I hope an injury doesn't flare up in the near future, and that turns out to be the reason why Colorado got the sudden urge to trade him. |

So I guess the only guy, out of all those mentioned, who has yet to be traded is Heath Bell?
'Cause Kuroda won't waive his no-trade clause...so... |

Calm down, Skip. You should be sitting in a corner, naked and crying to yourself while in a feeldle position, much like I did when Jake Peavy was dealt.
Bell is still up for grabs, and I'm hearing reports from my buds that the Rangers are rumored to be finished dealing. Thinking Bell getting traded is becoming a long shot. |

I heard their park has a lot of structural issues. Matt Vasgersian did a radio interview and said that it was his favorite place to call a game and that he wishes the Royals would win more so he'd have more chances to do so.
Nice INF help fopr the BoSox. |

Probably because the 'Trop is a piece of shit facility and the Rays desperately need to move out of there.
I'm waiting for one here in San Diego. The weather in July is amazing, and PETCO is a beautiful place to watch a game. The HR derby would take a shit, though. I promised myself the minute MLB announce the All Star game is coming to San Diego, I will purchase season tix. |

I am a tiny bit worried for Cleveland though. According to what I heard, there could be something Medically wrong with Ubaldo right now. I read that the Yankees pulled out of the Trade 4 days ago when the Yankees asked Jimmenz for a Physical and the Rox refused the Yankees to get Ubaldo a physical. I think that was the main reason why he was pitching for the Rox at all last night. If he's really injured and there's something wrong with him. I am happy that we didn't trade for him.
