SI.com's Jon Heyman has confirmed that the Astros will not trade Hunter Pence at this year's deadline.
The Astros were known to be shopping the 28-year-old outfielder at one point, and even drew interest from the Braves and Pirates, but the Houston front office apparently didn't find any suitable offers. Pence is batting .308/.355/.472 with 11 home runs and 62 RBI in 95 games this season. He's earning $6.9 million.
Looks like he's staying put.
That won't be "confirmed" until Sunday.
This is ugly today. Denorfia must've been pissed that I yelled at him about his ugly uniform on Friday night.

he pitched like shit. brown dove for a ball and it hit off his wrist. wasn't a tough play. that opened the flood gates for 4 runs to score in the 2nd (play of the game to this point).
Some of us are starting to understand that Yankees mindset, just a little bit. Of course, our team still has only two championships.

Seems like it, especially with how they have been linked to bascially every player on the market.
I have quietly been amused at some of the talk around here.
Adams...get him
Bell....get him
Upton....get him
Pence...get him
Beltran...get him.
I want Pence. The rest I can take or leave; especially Upton, who I can just leave. But I'd like to see the Braves and Giants NOT get Beltran.
Bell doesn't do much for me. Bullpen guys get hot & cold all the time.

once they did the r6's contract last year, i said i thought that was a sign they'd be willing to start increasing their payroll more than they usually do. this is just another indicator of that.

his nickname should be the E-3 or the backwards K. His throw the other day was money.

someone brought up the albatross that is his contract. awful
:roll: :roll:
he's now 3rd on the team in slg %. exactly what I want from my cleanup hitter (not like the guys ahead of him are slugging at an impressive clip either)
your boys haven't seen a lineup as weak as the giants since, well, yesterday. I really don't know how my boys can be in first place. our #1 HR hitter has nine. yes, nine. :wtf:

haven't been able to follow game much...

great inning for lidge. not gonna get too carried away, but that would be huge if he can be effective
yeah? that is great news....what was his velocity at?
didn't notice that. was on some calls while I was watching. been watching most of the game on mute, which is actually nice.
big spot for crust here
watching a game on mute...blasting some pj....downing multiple beers = pretty quality pregame to an evening's festivities.

Adams
Beltran
Bell

You can't help yourself can u?
pence
beltran
thornton
willingham
loogy
bell
adams
melky
upton
quentin
ludwick and francoeur would be something like 1,324th and 1,325th on my list
of course it all depends on what they'd have to give up in each trade so this exercise is pretty much useless unless you're comparing trade packages

don't you have a TV show you should be watching?
