lol just said on ESPN A-Rod is a "True Yankee" now, shut the fuck up seriously. This true Yankee stuff is so retarded, he is the best player on the team.
Plus I'm pretty sure he's already hit a walk off home run against the Red Sox. I know for a fact he's at least hit a homer off of Papelbon in the top of the 9th at Fenway to put the Yankees a head. |

Also on ESPN they played both local announcers when A-Rod hit the homer back to back. Just made the Yankee's guy sound so much more ridiculous, he is like a cartoon or something. AN A-BOMB FOR A-ROD! THE NIGHT THAT TURNED INTO EARLY MORNING!

Woo the Reds score 10 runs in a game for the first time since May 13. And it came in a game with Lincecum pitching.

John Sterling is so much worse than Michael Kay.
A.J. Burnett may be the worst pie assassin in baseball. He barely got A-Rod's ear. |

So I walked away from baseball here in the last little bit as I have been realbusy and the Jays are killing my soul. So.
So... So I find out today they traded Rolen to Cincy? WTF? Why did Cincy want him? What did the Jays get? Was it Encarnationne (sp?) ... is that it?... was there more to the deal?? Don't quite get it. Does Cincy have a chance this year? Hmmm. And the Jays put Rios on waivers, he was claimed and the Jays poulled him off. OK. Um... They just went through a big deal of signing him to a 64+ million dollar 6 year deal and they are fishing him? .... any idea who claimed him? Rios is a bit of a headcase. Can be very unfocused, but I would still say he has a lot of upside. BAh. Whatever. JP is a goof, imho. |

I don't think so. They did it to see if there was interest for him. Like I said, all that investment in himand celebration just a year ago and already looking to move him? Makes little sense. Anywayz. Don't understand the Rolen move. Unless it was Rolen wanting to move. Neither team is going anywhere and Rolen is a way better defensive 3B not to mention he's hitting really good (albeit not with much power) this year. Odd moves by the Jays, from my perspective. |

No I think if they clear waivers then they can just trade them to whoever without the waiver process coming into play.
So say if they put Rios on waivers, he clears them, they are now free to trade him to whoever they want. With the waiver process I think another team can make a claim on a guy and screw up a potential trade or something - to be honest I'm not 100% sure (obviously) but I think it's something like that. Basically putting a player on waivers isn't a big deal, if the player clears them (most do) it just gives the team an option for trades for the rest of the month. |

But that's just it. The Jays made sucha big deal in his long term signing. Now they want to trade him off? He's not doing anything different this year than what got him the big contract. Except a bit of a lower batting avg.
Maybe they (Jays) finally see he's peaked and the potential isn't there anymore and they are hoping others haven't figured it out yet. Rios' yearly #'s have never been all that impressive but yet he's raved upon. I'm not calling him a scrub, I like him well enough, but people seem to think he's a 35/35 guy. Don't know why. Last 3 years, including this year.

I see the A's released Giambi.
Wonder if anyone else will pick him up for a playoff run. Is he still on the DL? LOL. Jays were considering him at the start of the year. Jays gotta do something about Overbay. He's not good enough production wise. |

Speaking of the Blue Jays, word going around is that the White Sox claimed Alex Rios.
Think they'll pick him up? |

Wonder what the trade would be? Their SS (Ramirez?) has that potential. Not like Scutaro will be a fixture past this year. Dunno what the WSOX would think about moving him.

So I went looking for some older news on the Rolen tradeto Cincy. The JAys also picked up 2 pitching prospects. That makes the deal make more sense,but I wonder just who these prospects are. - as in the chances of them actually ever doing anything.

Also if a team claims Rios they are also claiming his huge contract, so maybe the Jays regret their decision with that? |

Good thing Ramirez got ejected for hitting A-Rod in a 2-0 game in the 7th. Fantastic umpiring right there

He didn't even hit Texeria
Not that it matters now though, his minor league replacement walked in a run and now gave up a homer. DYN-O-MITE At least the Rangers lost |

Looking forward towards the offseason. Looks pretty bleak for the Mets tbh. Despite having a shitload coming off the payroll even when you account for the raises that guys like Santana and Wright are getting in their contracts, its being said there might only be around $20 million to spend and that they will need to have a smaller payroll than this year. Madoff is forcing the Wilpons to stay on a budget.
They are going to need a big bat. I was always against getting Holliday because his numbers would go way down outside of Coors, but he's been insane ever since he came back to the NL. Cards are hoping to re-sign him though. And with Damon/Matsui coming off the books, you can bet the Yankees will be a big player to sign him...especially if their offense falls short in the playoffs or something. Plus getting Holliday will cost the Mets a first rounder and I think they need all the draft picks they can get at this point. Gonna need a starting pitcher too, but most of the really good potential FA starters have options that will certainly be exercised (Beckett, Lee, etc.) Probably gonna come by the way of a trade if they can get anything. Not that they have much to trade. FIRE OMAR!
