Astros have deal in place to trade Roy Oswalt

From ESPN.com:

Chris Sprow | ESPN The Mag | R.C. Editor: People keep asking in the comments whether, in light of the Lee trade, Amaro can gain some redemption in Philly. Well, getting Oswalt, some money kicked in, and not giving up Cosart, Singleton, May or Ramirez is a pretty decent start.

Chris Sprow | ESPN The Mag | R.C. Editor: Keith Law will be offering his customary (see: heartwarming) analysis on the trade within the next couple hours. He is typing and shaking his head in the direction of Ed Wade.

 

Trying to stay positive, but...


F***ING HELL WADE! OSWALT AND 11 MILLION F***ING DOLLARS AND YOU CAN'T GET A F***ING TOP 10 PROSPECT? WTF!?!?!?!?!?!?!

 

Did the Mailman fail to deliver?

 

Is Ed Wade's allegiance still with Philadelphia? Wow. They've got to trade Berkman now and Myers. Drayton, Wade and Smith are like the three stooges. Losing Hunsicker was the worst thing that ever happened to the Astros.

 

silly post.

 

As blah as this trade is. I'm not quite sure it makes this page...

You're entitled to your opinion, anyway it's OT, so I'm going to drop the subject.

 

My sources tell me that Ed Wade is still on the Phillies' payroll.

 

still hasn't changed it, yet updated it 2 minutes ago.

please let it never change.

 

WTF if Gose & Vilar are the only two other prospects we get in return, we need to roll some heads in management.

Agreed with the comment Hunsicker leaving was the worse thing to happen to the DisAstros. But I guess that's what you get when you have a delusional owner like McClain

 

At this rate, we'll trade Berkman for 10 wooden bats and a fungo.

 

How could Drayton approve such a deal??? I'm just so perplexed by this, we go from asking for Kemp, Loney, Singleton, etc etc, to THIS ? Why not just send him to St. Luis then so he can restructure his contract so you dont have to pick up the 11 mil tab instead at least?

 

more overrated among Houston sports fans:

Morey

or

Hunsicker


?????

 

if this is the deal i will never watch another astros game until drayton mclane sells the team.

 

"Now, you listen to me! I want trading reopened right now. Get those brokers back in here! Turn those machines back on! TURN THOSE MACHINES BACK ON!!"

 

Yeah, Wade would probably trade Berkman straight up for Trindon Holliday...oh wait he plays football. Who cares! He's fast, so fast!

 

awesome!! because they didn't trade for an 18 year old kid you never saw play and whose name you'd never heard before this morning!! :grin:

that's entertainment.
