seawolf17 Old-Timey Member Posted July 31, 2006 Author Posted July 31, 2006 The Colorado Rockies have acquired left-hander Jeremy Affeldt and right-hander Denny Bautista from the Kansas City Royals for infielder Ryan Shealy and right-hander Scott Dohmann.

HahnSolo Old-Timey Member Posted July 31, 2006 Posted July 31, 2006 Red Sox standing pat? Somewhat surprising.And no news yet on Soriano?
Guest Yancy Street Gang Guests Posted July 31, 2006 Posted July 31, 2006 I can't imagine why the Nationals would keep Soriano. Are they just going to let him walk for a compensation pick? How foolish would that be?
Gwreck Old-Timey Member Posted July 31, 2006 Posted July 31, 2006 Russo blew a gasket when talking to Brian Cashman on WFAN re the Abreu/Lidle deal. Cashman was seconds away from hanging up on him.

Guest Rockin' Doc Guests Posted July 31, 2006 Posted July 31, 2006 Greg Maddux goes to the Dodgers for infielder Cesar Izturis.
Guest Rockin' Doc Guests Posted July 31, 2006 Posted July 31, 2006 Julio Lugo goes to the Dodgers for minor league third baseman Joel Guzman and minor league outfielder Sergio Pedroza. Lugo will play second base for the Dodgers while Kent is on the DL. Guzman is expected to be assigned to (AAA) Durham Bulls while Pedroza will likely be sent to (A) Visalia of the Tampa Bay system..
Guest Rockin' Doc Guests Posted July 31, 2006 Posted July 31, 2006 I went ot the store for an hour or so and all hell broke loose. I guess I was still in shock to learn that Duaner Sanchez was lost for the season and Xavier Nady was sacrificed for a replacement in the pen.NOt often I fall into the RMPL category, but it would definitely apply in this case.
metirish Old-Timey Member Posted July 31, 2006 Posted July 31, 2006 I know how you feel, and here's another thing,when Omar was on the FAN he said when asked if Sanchez is gone for the year.." we have to wait and see if he needs surgery,if not he could be back"...I swear he said something like that...anyone else hear it?

metirish Old-Timey Member Posted July 31, 2006 Posted July 31, 2006 Ok cool because I thought I read he had surgery....
Guest Edgy DC Guests Posted August 9, 2006 Posted August 9, 2006 The Reds-Nats deal is going from bad to worse for Cincinnati. Gary Majeski is on the DL and Reds GM Wayne Krivsky is insinuating that he was osld damaged goods.Krivsky wants Nationals to explain 'undisclosed' injuryASSOCIATED PRESSGM Wayne Krivsky sought an explanation yesterday for why the Reds were unaware that reliever Gary Majewski had a sore shoulder when they acquired him from Washington.The Reds didn't know that the right-hander had a cortisone injection in his shoulder before the All-Star break. Majewski was placed on the 15-day DL Monday after telling the team that his shoulder has bothered him since spring training.A medical test found no serious injury."I'm still trying to figure out what's what here," Krivsky said. "I'm glad we have Gary Majewski, and I'm glad he's not hurt seriously. I'm disappointed he's not active."Krivsky left a telephone message yesterday morning for Nationals GM Jim Bowden. Majewski and reliever Bill Bray were the keys in an eight-player deal on July 13 that sent outfielder Austin Kearns and SS Felipe Lopez to Washington."I did call him, and I have not heard back," Krivsky said before last night's game against St. Louis. "I just wanted to have a conversation."Bowden said he was surprised by the controversy."I don't think they feel that way," Bowden said before a game against Florida. "If they did, I know one thing: Wayne Krivsky would call me directly."And our organization is always forthright honest in any transaction we make. ... I think that's just a media report."Later last night, Bowden issued a statement saying he was "disappointed" by Krivsky's statement that he had tried to reach him about the trade."I never received either a call or a message from Wayne, but when I read his comments this evening, I called him and reminded him that the Cincinnati Reds had received all of the medical information they requested, both before and after the trade," Bowden's statement said. "It is also worth remembering that Gary pitched for us right up to the trade and has continued doing so for the Reds up until now."Earlier, Krivsky had sidestepped questions about whether the team might file a grievance over the deal. He wouldn't rule out future trade discussions with the former Reds GM."I don't like eliminating teams," Krivsky said. "Hopefully people feel when they deal with us, they're dealing straight up."For me, your credibility is paramount, not only with (the media) but with other teams and the fans and your ownership. You lose your credibility, you're done in this business."
MFS62 Old-Timey Member Posted August 9, 2006 Posted August 9, 2006 Edgy, that gave me a Victor Zambrano flashback.But after hearing that he was suffering sore arm prior to the deal, Mets fans were more vocal (publically, at least) than the Mets front office.Later
metirish Old-Timey Member Posted August 9, 2006 Posted August 9, 2006 So I suppose this is why the Reds picked up Ryan Franklin from the Phils the other day.

MFS62 Old-Timey Member Posted August 17, 2006 Posted August 17, 2006 metirish wrote:Red Sox aquire Eric Hinske from TorontoIrish, the article states that the Red Sox have no official comment on the deal. Neither do the Jays. I heard from friends in Toronto who have told me that as of early this morning, the Jays' GM said "No comment" when asked about the deal.So, we don't yet know if this was just a rumor or if there is a hold up over the player(s) involved or the amount of money the Jays will give Boston to take him.Later
metirish Old-Timey Member Posted August 17, 2006 Posted August 17, 2006 Well it says this...]because last night the Sox struck a waiver deal with the Toronto Blue Jays for Eric Hinske,
MFS62 Old-Timey Member Posted August 17, 2006 Posted August 17, 2006 That could just mean they put in a claim for him. This is not the period for irrevocable waivers. Under baseball rules, if they can't come to agreement, the Jays can pull him back off waivers.All I'm saying is wait and see.Later
metirish Old-Timey Member Posted August 17, 2006 Posted August 17, 2006 You're right 62,I shouldn't have posted that.
MFS62 Old-Timey Member Posted August 17, 2006 Posted August 17, 2006 Irish, looks like it is now official. (1;36 PM)You got the scoop, young reporter.http://sports.yahoo.com/mlb/news;_ylt=AjnhdrbXV8ufJS1D_v_NQl0RvLYF?slug=ap-bluejays-hinske&prov=ap&type=lgnsLater
