Guardians pull off another trade, getting Anthony Reyes from the Cards. In what has been a losing season for Cleveland, they have brought back some good talent in trades

 

Departing-- SP C.C. Sabathia, 3B Casey Blake, RP Luis Perdomo

 

Acquiring-- OF/1B Matt LaPorta, RP Zach Jackson, RP Rob Bryson, additional PTBNL from Milwaukee, RP Jonathan Meloan, C Carlos Santana, SP Anthony Reyes

Is there anyone else that the Guardians might think about moving.

[Cocos Disciples]

Wow, Reyes' stock dropped pretty quickly

Reyes had his problems with management in StL. Duncan wanted him to pitch a certain way and he refused. He has a world of talent, and if he accepts coaching this time around, he could be an ace.

There was talk about Paul Byrd going to the Yankees but I dout that happens now.

Mark Shapiro is the smartest GM in the game

[Cocos Disciples]

Yeah the Guardians got the better deal in this one I'm gonna say.
