  1. Link plz. And Coco - done.
  2. http://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2009/07/red-sox-to-acquire-victor-martinez.html More details coming, no return package specified yet.
  3. I wonder if the Gonzalez talks, in part, is Theo trying to be tricky and soften the Padres up for a possible Peavy trade this winter. Towers is a guy he has experience trading with, and the two know each other as well any GM pair right now. Theo could try and spin it so that by giving all of these guys to SD for Gonzalez (i.e. overpaying badly), Towers got a better-than-expected haul of that deal, and now can afford to sell Peavy, who's coming off an injury that lessens his trade value, for a realistic, even buyer-friendly price. Theo could be Billy Beane about it, in that he may just browbeat Towers into believing this, or it may just be a buddy thing of sorts. Out there theory, I know, but it crossed my mind and intrigued me.
  4. I don't know, the Diamondbacks are bleeding money right now.
  5. Because the odds of them getting Halladay look incredibly long at this point, the Martinez thing is supposedly dead and we would have had to overpay by a lot (Buchholz for Martinez? lulz) anyway to pull that off. If Theo doesn't do anything drastic this deadline, at least half the fanbase will be in hysterics. Its more a message to the public than anything.
  6. Surely they don't actually think they'll get Felix...
  7. Cleveland won't trade V-Mart and LaPorta (who they traded CC to get) for just Buchholz.
  8. That thread's from a while back... I posted because that was the thread where I was speculating about Ortiz being a user.
  9. Maybe they could squeeze out a depth SP as well.
  10. At least we have a trading history with the Padres/Kevin Towers. Hopefully that counts for something.
  11. Coherent =/= valid. Oh. So when people aren't spitting on Jackson's grave (i.e. someone who had nothing to do with you), then its okay to launch the unwarranted insults that clash so horribly with your own personal code of conduct? Got it, champ. And please tell me where 'one fail among many' somehow eclipses 'gary glitter says hello, douchebag' on the f***head scale.
  12. Reacting to speculation on your boy's steroid use by saying 'UR JUZT PISSD ABOWT 0RTEEZ!!' indeed makes you a trolling dipshit. As well as really whiny. You mean this thread? The one where you were randomly rude to and insulted two people who didn't even talk to you, let alone warrant it? Okay Trolly McHypocrite.
  13. Jacko is the resident Yankee fan forum troll. Every move the Yankees make is shrewdly intelligent, every move the Red Sox make is un-wise and risky. This is the first time since I've been here that HHM has posted, though I've seen him in archived threads.
  14. So did Ortiz. Rafael Palmeiro pointed a finger at Congress and emphatically denied using steroids. And proceeded to get blown out of the water 4 months later. Thomas making buddies with Mitchell doesn't mean anything to me. Palmeiro and Ortiz, among many others (hi Clemens) have said s*** among these exact same lines. Throw in Thomas's likely-unnaturally oversized head, and the fact that more and more unlikely candidates get busted all the time now, I don't buy Thomas for a second.
  15. It would surprise people if Thomas juiced? Yeah, his face isn't completely bloated and his head isn't the size of a small moon.
