OK, I'm not giving up on the season just yet, but I am willing to entertain REASONABLE offers for my 3 C players: Butler, Buehrle, and Polanco. I also would deal Ziegler or Dice-K cheaply and any of my lame OFs could be had. In short, I'm ready to start talking, but this ain't a fire sale.

Any interest in Kerry Wood?

Wait a second, you mean to say that a closer for a horrible team, who has a losing record, an era of over 5.5 and almost just blew his third straight save, is on the trading block?

That would be correct!

Any interest in Butler?

Anyone interested in Ervin Santana or Gio Gonzalez ??

Looks like Greg got the better end of the Bailey/Reimold for Guillen/Beltre deal for this year and next... Beltre to have surgery.

DeRosa traded to St Louis.........

Let's see here...Crippled Crows trades for Hamilton, he gets DL'd, they trade for Beltre, he gets DL'd...Lee, who would you like next?

Trade......... Barely Legal trades Vargas, Lugo, Iwanmura ( DL ), Purcey ( ML ) to Culito Monsters for Buehrle, Polanco

Yeah the DeRosa rumors were swirling forever so I knew it was going to happen sooner or later. I was just hoping it would be for someone more useful than middle relief.

Pending league approval, the Culito Monsters send Buehrle and Polanco to Barely Legal for Lugo, Vargas, Purcey and Iwamura. Not rebuilding, readjusting. Now entertaining offers for Butler.....

If there is any interest in Zumaya, let me know.

rumor has Konerko going to SF... Also Wells and Rios on the block in Toronto.... When will Abreau trade talk open up ????? Lee, you could be in some trouble.

Is that some wishful thing on the heels of your team dropping as fast as TBD's in the second half of 2008? I still have hope though on Konerko as he has the ability to veto any trade. Plus Bedard and Beltre's injuries have probably dropped their possibility of being traded a bit as well.
