Wow. That would be something.

 

[bravesnumberone]

So the Marlins can be on these guys, but we can't. We're just trying to figure out if we can afford Wesley Wright.

Well to be fair the Marlins have a much bigger payroll. It is tough having a big budget team like them in our division.

It's incredibly sad that we've come to that.

Yeah, I wish we were the Marlins this year too.

TR Sullivan ‏@Sullivan_Ranger 1m
Orioles and Rangers talking about Neal Cotts.... Orioles looking for reliever who can get both sides out.

 

[bravesnumberone]

They're trying to better their team in hopes of making a run.

 

[nsacpi]

It's incredibly sad that we've come to that.

Maybe someday we will be lucky enough to have an owner like Jeff Loria.

Ken Rosenthal ‏@Ken_Rosenthal 1m
Sources: Teams on #Padres' Kennedy include #Royals, #Pirates, #Marlins - and others. Not certain to be moved.

Latest bit of chatter I can find is the Indians possibly shopping Asdrubal Cabrera with the Giants possibly being interested.

Stop complaining.

Guess that would signal the end of the Uggla era...

 

[Bama9507]

Ken Rosenthal just said the team in on everyone and trying to be the most creative is Frank Wren and the Braves, but are struggling to get anything to materialize.

Oh yeah? And you're ugly.

 

[CyYoung31]

Even including Johnson's slow start, we are getting basically the same production for less than half the cost. Not sure how that makes him better.

Oh, the same production? But, I thought Prado "sucked"?

Let's ignore the obvious reasons that Prado is better for now. I want that answered.

It's because we have no money left. We shot our wad getting Ervin.

 

[bravesnumberone]

Too bad sorry-ass Uggla won't give up his money.

Did you not factor in the huge difference in defense to go along with the superior offensive numbers?

 

[CrimsonCowboy]

Per MLBTR, talks between the Sox and O's in regards to Lester have fizzled and there no longer appears to be a match.
