The Red Sox are desperately trying to find someone to take Mike Lowell and his suitcase of money. Word is that they have a deal lined up with Beltre, but want to move Lowell first.

At some point Castro is going to put it all together... unfortunately, it might be for the Red Sox.

90 seconds from shutting out the champs... and that... Niemi deserved better. Lets win this in OT.

ROH in Chicago tomorrow night... anyone going?

Deal is done. 4 years/36... with 5th year vesting option. I think this is a great move by the Mariners... making themselves stronger, and the best team in their division weaker. Ichiro and Figgins... thats one hell of a combo... too bad they really don't have anything else.

CJ! 2 Run Bomb in the bottom of the 8th to put our boys back on top.

Oz just said “If they give up on me, I give up on them.’’ Promises a lot of lineup changes on Friday. "What the [bleep] am I going to say? They horse[bleep]? Yes, they are.’’ via cowley twitter.

Our Ballpark Brother from Glendale... Win it for Jim!

Dodgers just got Jon Garland too. Go DODGERS!

Thome to the Dodgers Contreras to the Rockies

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Aug 31, 2009 -> 11:06 PM) Anyone who advocates releasing either one has zero clue about baseball or how business is done, or about showing any damn class/respect as an organization. Remember Carlton Fisk's last days with the Sox? I don't think it could get much worse than that. Not saying KW would do something like that... but our beloved Sox do have a history.

Well the deadline has passed so we should hear about the move shortly.

Sounds like he may be going away is a simple waiver claim.

He is gone... now the question is where... it has to be a place he is confident in the chance to win. I am still going with the Rangers.

Not a bad thought Thunder... I think both teams could use his veteran leadership... even if they get his K's with it.

Cowley's latest... About 30 minutes for Thome to decide if it's true ... tick, tick, tick ....

My money is on the Texas Rangers. Seems like a Nolan Ryan type of move.

Here are Cowleys Twitters from the last ten minutes. Rumors that Jim Thome was traded have just been shot down by Ozzie Guillen. (5 minutes ago) Hold the phone, Thome might be on the move, or at least thinking about waiving the no-trade clause. He's not commenting right now. (1 minute ago)

Rumors were swirling that Thome had been traded... but Ozzie just shot that down. according to Cowley's twitter.

Do it for Soxtalk.

Come On Kotsay!

so the only two first rounders unsigned with a couple minutes left are Strasburg and Crow (again).

IL High Schooler Ian Kroll signed with the A's... gets 925 K
