Blue Jays get Troy Glaus and a prospect for Hudson and Batista.

Don't like it. At all for the Jays. Their dope ass defense is shattered now.

Mets get Chad Bradford. And are on the verge of signing Julian Tavarez. Bullpen is shaping up pretty damn nicely. All it really needs is a situational lefty.

Wagner
Heilman
Tavarez
Bradford (only against RHs)
Lefty (only against LHs)
Padilla
Zambrano

Done.

I'm going to hire you at a law firm for 50,000 a year. My rival firm is offering you 75,000. Which job do you take?

The Orioles are seriously weighing a proposal from the Red Sox of Manny Ramirez and Matt Clement for Miguel Tejada, ESPN's Peter Gammons reports.

*My take:

Red Sux would be DUMB to make this move. You don't trade 40 HR's every year plus a ton of RBI's for a guy that is very good but still not in Manny's league hitting wise (two years ago was a bit of an aberration). Manny is being Manny playing the field but Miggy's defense can be ghastly at SS. Plus they throw in the scrub Clement. Wow.... hard to see it happening though cuz I doubt the Zero's errr the O's want to trade within the division.

I heard another rumor for the Red Sux to trade Andy Marte in a deal for Coco Crisp. Without question the best name in my opinion.

I think Milton Bradley beats out Coco Crisp.

As for the Red Sox... they should definitely grab Coco Crisp.

Well i wouldn't be surprised if this deal does go through, considering Boston already lost Damon to NY.

In other news, Washington signed P Ramon Ortiz to a 1year deal. We're slowly but surely closing the gap of expected starters. I'd like to see at least two more starting pitchers added to the rotation

I'm not feeling a "righty" specialist. Seems weird to me. Even though Bradford seems like a really good guy from the book Moneyball. Cool throwing motion though.

I'd be concerned about the age on the Mets rotation. Glavine 39, Pedro 34, and Trachsel 35. Just as much as I'm concerned about my Yanks with Big Bust and Moose (will suck this year).

Kevin Millwood for 60 million..... yowzers, that's redunkulous. His ERA is gonna skyrocket in Texas. It's a launching pad there.

I hope Heilman is used for the 8th inning. I get this vibe, though, that Tavarez will be. And that would stink. Because Heilman is better.

There are a lot of tough ass righties in the NL. Plus, think about it. 8th inning with a tough righty coming up... Bradford coming in. Do you pinch hit knowing that Wagner is ready to come in for a longer save? I doubt it.

The Red Sox, Orioles, Mets, and Devil Rays are working on a four-way trade involving outfielder Manny Ramirez and shortstop Miguel Tejada. According to the New York Daily News reported the deal, which would result in Ramirez and reliever Danys Baez going to the Mets. The Red Sox would receive Tejada and outfielder Joey Gathright, the Orioles would get shortstop Julio Lugo and pitchers Matt Clement and Kris Benson, and the Devil Rays would net pitchers Jae Seo and Aaron Heilman, infielder Kazuo Matsui, and third baseman Andy Marte.
