Ron Belliard was just dealt from the Indians to the Cardinals for Hector Luna...who I'm pretty sure St. Louis got from Cleveland in the Rule 5 draft a couple of years ago...

The answer is yes, and of course, no...
From what I'm reading, the Rocks would trade Shealy to the Bucs for either Grabow or Capps, who're both having good years....
Neither of them overpowering mind you, but having good years...
But of course Meathead, aka Dave Littlefield, says that he won't trade either one of them...
He won't trade either of two fucking middle relievers for a potential long-term solution at first base....
I hope they change their mind by the deadline, but like I said before, I have absolutely no confidence in Littlefield anymore...

Gillick announced in his press conference that the Phils won't be in the mix until 2008. HE ACTUALLY SAID THIS! This is a team that missed the playoffs by one game in 2005. He said we just needed to win 5 more this year to get into the playoffs and now we're not even in the mix until 2008???
So, what that means is they won't spend a dime of the money they're saving on any free agents..

Tigers add Casey from Pirates
Associated Press
7/31/2006 11:24:49 AM
DETROIT (AP) - The Detroit Tigers acquired first baseman Sean Casey from the Pittsburgh Pirates on Monday for minor league pitcher Brian Rogers.
Casey, a career .304 hitter, gives the AL Central-leading Tigers the left-handed hitter they have lacked as they try to reach the post-season for the first time since 1987.
To make room for Casey, Detroit optioned first baseman Chris Shelton to triple-A Toledo. Shelton is hitting .277 with 16 home runs and 45 RBIs. Shelton had nine homers in the Tigers' first 13 games, but has only one homer in July and two since June 19.
The 32-year-old Casey is a three-time NL all-star and was hitting .296 with three home runs and 29 RBIs in 59 games. He was out for six weeks with two fractures in his lower back after being hurt April 14 and has not shown much power, with only 18 extra-base hits in 213 at-bats.
Casey grew up in Pittsburgh and is looking forward to playing for manager Jim Leyland, who began managing the Pirates when Casey was a youngster.
Casey was the Pirates' highest-paid player at $8.5 million US, with the Reds picking up $1 million of his salary. The Pirates traded left-hander Dave Williams to the Reds for Casey during the off-season but later chose not to attempt to sign Casey to a multi-year contract. Casey is signed through this season.
Casey missed the Pirates' last two games with a strained right rib cage muscle, but the injury is not expected to sideline him long.
The first baseman spent most of his career with the Reds, driving in 85 or more runs in four of his seven full seasons in Cincinnati. He was a such a popular player while in Cincinnati that he was given the nickname ``The Mayor.''
Casey is considered an above-average fielder. He has not committed an error in 491 total chances at first base this season and has posted a .995 fielding percentage at first base during his career.
Rogers was 3-2 with a 2.39 ERA in 37 appearances at double-A Erie this season. A 11th-round draft pick in 2003, he moved into the bullpen last season after previously being a starter.

Twins trade Kyle Lohse to the Reds for a minor leaguer...about time they unloaded that mistake...Comment

Good move for the Tigers. Giving up a minor leaguer no one else had been discussing in any trade scenarios with us to my knowledge.
Shelton was a house of fire at the beginning of the year.
Casey, if healthy, steps right in at first.Comment

IMO the Yankees won't pick up the option they have on the last year of Sheffield's contract.
But, you're probably wondering about this year? I guess alternate?Comment
