Sleeping Giants Wake Up and Crush the Dodgers 10-0
Posted on 3 Apr 2011 by Cal Lee.
Ted Lilly's pitching debut as a Dodger was rudely introduced by an unrelenting Giants offense crushing LA 10-0 this afternoon at Dodgers Stadium. The free-agent signing of Ted Lilly didn't exactly resonate shockwaves through the baseball community as this was their “big splash” off-season acquisition. Many MLB analysts saw this as a “get – me- over” signi...

White Sox Claim Manny Ramirez
Posted on 29 Aug 2010 by Dave Leonardis.
The Los Angeles Dodgers got a nibble after putting oft-injured, high-priced slugger Manny Ramirez on waivers earlier in the week. The Chicago White Sox were rewarded the rights to the mercurial left fielder on Friday. The White Sox and Dodgers have until 1:30 PM ET on Tuesday to work out a trade, pending Ramirez agreeing to waive his no-trade clause to go to Chicago. If Ramirez were to resist a...

Would I lie to you?
Posted on 20 Aug 2010 by Stephanie Geosits.
Even though he hasn't worn pinstripes for a while, Roger Clemens is still making headlines for his career as a New York Yankee, unfortunately not for his legendary performances on the mound. Clemens was recently indicted for making false statements to Congress during the hearings about performance enhancing drugs in baseball. Just mentioning his name leads to a handful of very heated debates...

Cubs find match for Lee
Posted on 18 Aug 2010 by Eddie Kim.
The Chicago Cubs have finally found a taker for Derrek Lee. Earlier in the year, reports surfaced that the Cubs have come to an agreement with the Los Angeles Angels to send the all-star to the west coast, but the first baseman had declined the trade. This time, the Cubs have agreed to send Lee to the Atlanta Braves and Lee approved, becoming fourth Cub to be traded in the past month. Lefty Ted...

Cubs deal Lilly, Theriot
Posted on 31 Jul 2010 by Eddie Kim.
The emergence of Starlin Castro as the shortstop has created a logjam at second base, so that was one area where the Cubs wanted to move some pieces around. Since the off-season, the Cubs have made their interest in trading Ryan Theriot perfectly clear. Despite being only $800,000 apart in arbitration, the Cubs refused to even negotiate with Theriot and went to arbitration for the first time si...

….But Is It Enough?
Posted on 31 Jul 2010 by Dave Leonardis.
The MLB trading deadline has officially passed and the Los Angeles Dodgers, much to the surprise of no one, were aggressive in adding a few more pieces to a team that is poised to make another late run(as soon as they stop going on losing streaks to division rivals). After acquiring speedy outfielder Scott Podsednik earlier in the week, the Dodgers made two more moves today. First, they receive...

Dodgers Acquire Podsednik
Posted on 29 Jul 2010 by Dave Leonardis.
We all knew the Dodgers were going to pull the trigger on a trade sometime this week before Saturday's deadline. It just seemed like that it would be a pitcher heading to L.A. given the team's struggles in the rotation and the bullpen. Instead, the Dodgers traded two prospects to Kansas City for speedy outfielder Scott Podsednik. The 34-year old was hitting .309 with 5 home runs, 44 RBI and 3...

The Yankees Ain’t Broke!
Posted on 28 Jul 2010 by Stephanie Geosits.
You know the old saying, and what I'm saying as the July 31 trade deadline approaches is that the Yankees don't need any fixing. With a two-game lead on Tampa in the East and the best record in baseball, even if the Bombers fall out of first in the division they will still be winning the wild card. Brian Cashman would be wise to sit tight. Yes, Tampa is very good and the injury to Andy Pettitte...

Is this it?
Posted on 25 Jul 2010 by Shane Liebler.
Well, a couple of days ago I was pretty upbeat about the Tigers prospects of winning despite their recent history of losing. As they prepare to feebly face a tough Toronto squad twice today, I'm not even sure they can hold onto third place in the AL Central. The Tigers are in trouble. The injuries to Magglio Ordonez and Carlos Guillen almost certainly guarantee that they are out of the trade de...

PHILLIES: TO TRADE OR NOT TO TRADE? BUY OR SELL?
Posted on 21 Jul 2010 by Christopher Rowe.
As the Major League Baseball trading deadline approaches, speculation abounds. Every video game player thinks that all trades are possible and that every GM can gauge their potential return on investment instantly through the magic of Playstation. Well, while that may not be true, every GM is burning the proverbial candle at both ends, trying to determine what deals are possible AND whether or ...

What 2009 Holds, pt 2
Posted on 6 Apr 2009 by Josh Lile.
When we last met the Astros pitching was solid. Not great, but solid. Everything is fine right? Well…. The Lineup The Astros are lucky they are in the NL Central. In the American League this lineup is laughed at. In the NL East the Mets and Phillies point fingers and laugh. In the NL Central though this lineup gives the Astros a legit shot. If Carlos Lee and Lance Berkman are healthy the ...
