Latest rumor too was Yanks interested in Corey Patterson. Talk was if they couldn't find an outfielder in a reasonable deal today they were going to call up AJax.

i think it's still too early for that kid, but you never know. it is the Yankees we're talking about, I'm sure they land somebody by tomorrow. They did do a deal yesterday
Acquired rhp Jason Hirsh from Colorado. Nothing earth shattering that's for sure.

Yanks get the spank from Wise ( and his.193 AVG) in the bottom of the 9th with walk off single? Whats up with that?

Your boys are supposed to be helping the Tigers out Tommy

[jk2171]

Yeah, and Cano blows a sure double play. Yanks made Floyd look real good last night. Think A-Rod was 0-4. Worse yet I have to hear it from my co-workers!

[atomic charvel guy]

home plate umpire's zone was a joke all night. both teams expressed their discontent.
yanks were tired, they didn't look happy that they tied the game with two outs in the 9th, they all wanted to get out of there. Mitre is going to day making last night even more lousy. today is not gonna be easy to win. i'm praying for a split of this series now.

[jk2171]

Yeah, and all the homer announcers here were saying is that they were happy with the zone as long as he calls it for both teams. There were a couple of times Texieria and Melky just looked at the ump when he rung them up. Crazy....

Soze Washburn to the Tigers... Papi tests positive for PED...Alllegedly

The plot thickens...Now i REALLY want Halladay but i fear the Yanks will be in the mix a bit thicker since they didn't score Washburn.... 2.5 hrs to deadline....

[Shawn Lutz]

Rangers are rumored to be in the Holladay mix

Washburn to Detroit...dunno what to think about that one

[jk2171]

Yeah, Washburn to the Tigers came out of left field. Boston close to VMartinez from Cleveland, but are giving up Bucholz for him. Wowza!

[jk2171]

Seattle wanted either Montero or Jackson from the Yankees. Yankees countered with lesser valuable prospects, and Seattle never called back lol

[Superfly]

Yeah, Washburn to the Tigers came out of left field. Boston close to VMartinez from Cleveland, but are giving up Bucholz for him. Wowza!

The report i read was Justin Masterson. I'd rather they take Bucholz

[Sinistas]

Masterson, Hagadone and Price for Martinez. I think it's a fantastic deal - Masterson didn't have much of a role in such a stacked bullpen.

JP Ricciardi pulled off a great deal with the Reds, IMO, but failed with Halladay.

[Shawn Lutz]

mang Clee-lind tribe dun take down the Tigers in the 13th...CLEVELAND? WTF?

Again Tommy, no help from the Yanks, Whitesox 1.5 behind. You have the BoSox same behnd you...

[jk2171]

Yankees making the damn White Sox look like the best team in baseball. Ugly, ugly, ugly.....

[jk2171]

Yankees get the one game you would think they'd have a hard time getting against Buhrle. Big week coming up...2 with the Blue Jays (one against Halladay), and the battle for 1st place with the Red Sox at the end of the week.
