The Polaroid Random Thoughts Baseball Thread

[FairWarning]

yeah I was kinda wondering if they could get to the point where they trade to RECEIVE some prospects.

its a sellers market this year.

And the Cubs will be selling. They may have drawn the attention of an AL team (Indians?) to take Soriano. Of course, the Cubs will have to pay 75-80%.

i've been surprised at how much Soriano has shown left in the offensive tank this year.....

after that last HR, I thought maybe he might get taken by some contender with $ (yanks, bosox)

He went to a bat that was 2 oz lighter,at the request of Sveum on May 13. He had no HR's until May 15.

Dafty, should be a big night in Miami! Beckett vs. Johnson! Once promising stud pitcher vs. the present promising stud pitcher! As much as I dislike Beckett and Sox, have to root against the Fish! It's just a hobby now that I enjoy!

Vlad just made the jump from single A to triple A.

Soon, my friends.

Vlad released by the Jays today. Said there was no room for him in the Bigs and granted his request to be cut loose.

so who will pick him up now? Baltimore? Yankees? Detroit? Indians?

getting close to Anthony Rizzo time, FW!!!!! Been Hot as FOCK, up to 22 HRS on the year now

and I think June 21st is when they can bring him up and not lose a year of service time...

he got hurt tonight though, but its said to not be serious

I bet Theo flips Lahair for a decent return

If you are going to cheer for the Blue Jays, it helps to be bipolar.
