Well, you said "almost" -- I didn't. The trade was a done deal. Period. Now, maybe it's part of a GM's job description to persuade a player...
So what are your thoughts on the agreed-upon trade of Burke for Jamie Moyer/Randy Winn that was vetoed by Moyer? That deal didn't fall apart...
Check this out -- the Devil Rays don't even think that Zobrist is a major league shortstop: So basically even our trade partners admit we gave...
Well done, sir!
Let's not forget that Purpura had a deal in place last year for Randy Winn and Jamie Moyer that was negated only because Moyer preferred losing to...
The sense of urgency is the best thing about this trade. By getting one guy, a fire is lit under the asses of three more -- Lane, Ensberg and...
Hey, did y'all see this in the Chron article about the deal? http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/sports/4041921.html Very interesting....
Totally agree as I mentioned in my earlier post. That's the great thing about this trade -- we might have already gotten the biggest bat...
I can't see Shane getting significant minutes at the 4. The reason an undersized Merion works at the 4 is that Merion is an athletic freak...
Exactly. What's not to like? That we didn't get Dontrelle Willis or Cabrera? :rolleyes:

Hey, if we get Rudy or Roy, I'm psyched. I don't care if that means we give up Head, Juwan, or even Swift. I know Gay is a bit of a risk, but...
Wow, I had no idea so many people would defend Dirk's lame dish to Dampier WITH THE FREAKING CHAMPIONSHIP ON THE LINE. 1. I don't believe for...
Larry Bird-caliber players don't give the ball up to Eric Dampier with the NBA championship on the line. That is all.
True, but we keep losing chances to gain ground. The way Cincy is playing, we should have been in the Wild Card lead a few days ago ... :(...
That's how he pronounces the name of this show, The Colbert Report. The "t" is silent in both words. His pronunciation of "report" is supposed...
Work on Philly's Fringe Fest while you're at it! ;) http://www.livearts-fringe.org/ Our Fringe Fest is pretty good. We used to see 2-3...
The importance of this cannot be understimated. Not to mention that Edmonds is playing very banged up. By the way, what happened to reason...
The ironic thing is that Justice didn't even write the Tombstone Article -- Ortiz did. And yet Justice still references the tombstone every five...
