    this could just be my twisted perception, but it always seems like it starts with a late night deal. then the shit hits the fan for 24 hours or so.

    it's coming

    I agree that it always seems to happen at night, right as I am about to go to sleep. I check trade rumors on my phone, see a big deal, the procede to follow it for the next couple hours.

    Tonight the night? Gotta happen soon, doesn't sound like much is brewing though.

    might not be for a couple of days. the deadline on sunday kinda sucks. I like to have all this stuff going on during the week when I'm online more.

    Just saw the Braves-Pirates highlights on Sportscenter and that was a horrendous call by the ump.

    Probably the worst since the Galarraga call.

    Heard he is the 3rd base ump in front of the Pirates bench today. Should be fun.

    just saw it...what an abomination. could be worse than the galarraga call. the ball beat him by 3 feet! i thought clint hurdle's head was gonna explode.

    sadly, this only gonna make bud selig more thirsty for a more vast replay policy.

    just hope the Pirates don't miss the playoffs by a game. looks like a guy who had enough after 19 innings. brutal.

    give all the managers a challenge mechanisim. no balls/strikes, but safe vs. out. two a game would be more than enough. or one per game, that renews if you are correct.

    Why in the fuck would the Blue Jays trade for a rental Edwin Jackson?

    That makes a little more sense. I didn't get the rental at all. And yeah, I guess I shouldn't be terribly suprised but Alex whatever his last name is has been going a decent job up there it seems. Shit, he got rid of Rios and Wells and their contracts, that is a small miracle

    Sounds like Boras is running the show in the Beltran talks. That guy is unreal.

    They are looking, but I think they are just window-shopping. Need some serious bullpen help.

    They seem to be serious about Jimenez though.

    Can't stand him. Glad A-Rod got rid of him.

    This Jackson trade may involve Rasmus. This could begin to make things interesting.

    I don't mind him as much as most, aside from his Arod world series stunt. His job is to get his players paid and he does that better than anyone. Gotta respect that.
