The Padres are about to trade for Cub's Todd Walker to be the 3rd baseman against right-handers. We can stop hearing about the Lowell trade rumors then

http://www.sportsline.com/mlb/story/9579681

 

ESPN's Jayson Stark says the Mets could be close to getting Oliver Perez and Roberto Hernandez from the Pirates. No word yet on what would go back. The Mets wouldn't want to give up Lastings Milledge for those two, but it's hard to see how they could do it without surrendering Aaron Heilman.

 

Hernandez is a great pickup for the Mets, Oliver Perez... has lost a lot of value

Damn they gave up Xavier Nady whose been having just a great year in New York

The Royals/Rockies trade was a very good one for both teams, IMO. Bautista throws pretty hard (he's actually Pedro's cousin) and despite his struggles, i've always liked Affeldt. Good for Shealy that he's out of Colorado and can be a full time player somewhere. Should fit pretty well in KC.

Yeah, getting highly touted prospects like Shealy and Gathright. This team will definately be a huge contender in like 4 or 5 years.

I kind of wanted Shealy to stay, but Im hopeful for Affeldt.

 

Also MLB.com says the Rangers got Stairs from the Royals for Joselo Diaz, who had pitched in 28 games for Triple-A Oklahoma with a 3.28 ERA and four saves.

The Pirates basically traded Sean Casey, Craig Wilson, Oliver Perez, Kip Wells, and Roberto Hernandez for Xavier Nady ... great job Littlefield.

Don't forget Shawn Chacon! Pittsburgh is lucky, I'm sure Cashman was just getting request after request for him...but the Pirates were the victors.

You're right man I don't know how I forgot Chacon! I was amazed we didn't have to throw some prospects in with that deal.

very, very minor deal, but Neifi Perez has been dealt to the Tigers as a short term replacement for Polanco.

 

from mlbtraderumors.com

 

"The Cubs unloaded Neifi Perez on the Tigers today, and it was no surprise Neifi got through waivers. What team would want to be on the hook for $2.5MM for him next year? Ditching Neifi at this point at least partially rights the wrong of signing him to an extension in the first place for Jim Hendry. The Cubs' "everything man" will be making outs atop of Detroit's lineup now. Even more impressive is that Hendry snagged a 22 year-old catching prospect, Chris Robinson, in the deal."

Also' date=' Shawn Green has waived his no trade clause, so he can be traded to the Mets if he clears waivers, which he may have already done.[/quote']

It's official (almost). I can't link yet but it's Green and cash for a minor leaguer
