7 PM Press Conference to announce Grady Little as the new Dodgers manager

he sucks. nice move.
Zero hour, Michael. It's the end of the line. I'm the firstborn. I'm sick of playing second fiddle. I'm always third in line for everything. I'm tired of finishing fourth. Being the fifth wheel. There are six things I'm mad about, and I'm taking over.

Rumored deal about to go down:

Former Phils draft pick Adam Eaton (Padres) goes to the Rangers for a minor league catcher.

They're coming in at different times though, I'd hate to put them all in one post, that would take away from my mad update skillz.

Juan Pierre is a Cub today for 3 prospects

The Braves are trying to get Edgar Renteria from Boston for 3B Andy Marte. The Sox then want to flip Marte to the Rays for Julio Lugo.

Braves asked about Adam Everett and were denied. Same with Craig Monroe.


Yankees asking everyone and their momma for a CF. They asked Houston about Taveras and were laughed at.

QuotePeter Gammons is saying the Dodgers are close to acquiring Alfonso Soriano for Jonathan Broxton.  I suppose Soriano could take over at third base; he's yet to play a Major League game in the outfield.  Broxton would fit well in either the starting rotation or the 'pen.  The hefty right-hander split time between the roles at Double A Jacksonville in 2005.  One of Broxton's specialties (besides the palmball) is limiting the home run, a trait that will come in handy in a ballpark that inflates homers by 19%.
I'm the Anti-Christ. You got me in a vendetta kind of mood.
