    i'm happy! Hoping for Singleton, but honestly I think whatever they got is as good as they could get in this market given Roy's contract. It seems like Wade worked it for as long as possible and put a lot of man hours in... I'll take whatever the results are at this point if he hammers something out

    Holy &*#&@%

    @Stephen_Goff: It's believed that Houston will receive left-hander J.A. Happ and Single-A first baseman Jonathan Singleton in the deal.

    Tip of the cap to Wade, well done sir!

    I saw that as well, and I may be being greedy, but only 2 pieces?

    Singleton is special but I have to assume a third piece has to be included.

    This deal would be more then fine too and Uncle D stepped up to the plate on this one.

    Going to sleep, hope the next level dream is as good as this one, good luck.

    No one to shed light on. All rumor and speculation at this point besides JA Happ, who seems like a lock.

    Gose - in the bourn mold: speedy OF with a questionable (so far) bat. Had 76 steals in A ball last year.

    Have to echo this...we don't know much yet. Can't go speculating.

    Have to ask this...how is it that you guys know so much about the minor league players? I'd love to have information on the prospects in baseball, but it seems they're never in the spotlight. Any good websites you guys look on to find out about Singletary, among others?
