BTW, I'd just like to say thank you to whoever put the kibosh on that three-way trade between the Red Sox, White Sox and Rangers a couple of years ago. Remember that? It would've been A-Rod to my Sox, Ordonez to your Sox and Manny to the Rangers.
Everyone has two chances to get Barry Zito via trade:
1. Slim.
2. None.
I wouldn't be suprised if King George throws a mountain of cash his way in the offseason either.
