deadline at 4 today

[therealsoxGM]

baseball tonight said the manny deal was 99.9% dead... there's still a chance manny might get traded then :thumbdown

[yankeessuck013]

lets post all deadline deals in this thread, unless they are so huuuuge they need a new thread

[bigpapi349]

i dont think anything big will happen today for any team. i think theres just going to be a couple minor deals

[whereisnomar]

There has to be at least one trade, and I bet there is going to be one with the Red Sox.

[yankeessuck013]

I agree with many close races this year there will be a lot of "buyers" out there on the market.

[bigpapi349]

possible big deals in MLB today------

 

Griffey to Cubs??

Soriano to Twins

Huff to Redsox or Whitesox

Baez to Whitesox or Mets

[ksushi]

I think the sox will do something to land huff.

[yankeessuck013]

i hope so, w/o giving up any top prospects

[yankeessuck013]

ok so the 4 PM deadline has passsed, all paperwork must be handed in now

 

all the announcement will be made within 2 hours from now

 

the only trade I have heard is villone to the marlins

[element1151]

Not big, but Mariners send Villone to the Marlins for 2 RHP (Prospects).

[yankeessuck013]

we couldn't do better than that to land villone?

[yankeessuck013]

here have been some deals just announced, like Lawton to CHC and Farnsworth to ATL

 

damn I would've loved to have farnsworth

[yankeessuck013]

No trades at all, this has got to be the worst trading deadline in history......

 

didnt theo say last week that we couldnt win with the team we had now

[RedSoxRooter]

I'm surprised there was no trade for a lefty or closer in the pen.

[ksushi]

yeah but at the same time, we can make the playoffs this year, we might not win it but we can make the playoffs and we will have a better shot next year. Next year i think the sox will have the best chance and you can't blow that by trading away top prospects I mean come on the devil rays wanted hanley ramierez and jon lester for aubrey huff, i mean i know huff is good, but hanley and lester? come on. I'm glad they didn't do anything like that.

Hansen's working out at the spring training facility in Ft. Myers, FL. There is speculation that he was so ML ready when drafted in June that he could be up by Sept. Maybe they know something we don't?

[ksushi]

Is hansen definetly signed? I thought that was still just rumor

[Soxfan1]

That was horrible. The mariners were the most active team.

[CrespoBlows]

I was hoping the Sox would add Villone, we really need another lefty in that bullpen. Here's hoping for another Mike Myers waiver wire deal.

[riverside sluggers]

Lenny Dinardo, a lefty, should come back to Red Sox in place of Papelbon when he is sent back to Pawtucket

[CrespoBlows]

Lenny Dinardo, a lefty, should come back to Red Sox in place of Papelbon when he is sent back to Pawtucket

 

I think that Jose Cruz Jr. will be called up, but Dinardo is a viable option.

[riverside sluggers]

True, I'd like to see for Tuesday: Jose Cruz joins team with Lenny Dinardo being called back up to Sox, while Papelbon and Gonzalez sent back down to Triple A
