Josh Beckett & Mike Lowell to the Red Sox for 3 minor league prospects.. Who saw this coming?
Today in the paper it said that the Mets landed Carlos Delgado.
Just saw on tv that the Phillies are traiding Jim Thome to the White Sox for Aaron something???

Wow lots of moves goin on.. what's next?

The Beckett and Lowell trade has been in the works for a week or so. The Delgado trade caught me off guard. Was hoping the Dodgers were in the lead on that one.

Oh well, the Dec. 3 meetings are around the corner so trades should really start heating up now.

The Marlins trades dont surprise me, they are basically having a fire sale. I guess it does surprise me that they moved Beckett before Burnett though. The Thome for Rowand deal doesnt make any sense for the White Sox if you ask me. I dont know why they would trade a young center fielder on a World Series team for a guy that is way over the hill and pretty much washed up.

The cubs are beefing up there relief staff. Just signed to free agents this week. Both for 11million for 3 year deals.

Billy Wagner signs with the Mets for $43 million..

BJ Ryan with the Blue Jays for 47...Hmmm...BJ to the BJ's. OK, not touching that with a 10 foot pole.

Who is BJ Ryan, and is he worth 47 mil???? All I know is he's a closer!

Met's landed LoDuca as of this morning..

The Braves just acquired Edgar Renteria from the Red Sox in exchange for Andy Marte. Marte was a good prospect at third base, probably the best in the Braves organization. We have Chipper, though.

Just found out about this today:

Rangers traded Soriano to the Nationals for Wilkerson. I think that's who the Nationals traded..

Raphael Furcal gets to drive drunk in LA now, instead of Atlanta.

He'll blend in better down there Racksie. I think they even have a DDLDD. Designated Driving Lane for Drunk Drivers...
