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.

Yep, for Joel Guzman. Lugo to play 2B at least until Kent is off the DL. Then they "figure it out."

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?

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.

Nats have money. Maybe they think they can re-sign him.

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..

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.

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?

No, that was correct.

According to Omar, he is "resting" and will be evaluated.

Omar went on to note that "if" he needs surgery, he "will be out for the year."

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' injury

ASSOCIATED PRESS


GM 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."

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.

Red Sox aquire Eric Hinske from Toronto


Irish, 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.

Well it says this...

]because last night the Sox struck a waiver deal with the Toronto Blue Jays for Eric Hinske,


Posted


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.
