July 31, 201015 yr QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jul 31, 2010 -> 01:05 PM) It's official, 3-team deal. Westbrook to STL, Ryan Ludwick to SD, prospects to CLE. The Cardinals just gave up a guy with an .827 OPS to get Jake Westbrook. They must really not like Ludwick.

They must really like Jon Jay, but I doubt he's gonna keep up his .396 BA or 1.051 OPS. A Cardinals fan friend of mine posted on FB: "Great, now we have four pitchers who can lose games 1-0 since we can't score any runs."
July 31, 201015 yr Looking like Ted Lilly and Ryan Theriot are going to the Dodgers for DeWitt and other pieces.
July 31, 201015 yr QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Jul 31, 2010 -> 01:14 PM) OH NO! The Riot's fanbase mourns! All females aged 15-22 from the North Suburbs??
July 31, 201015 yr QUOTE (WhiteSoxfan1986 @ Jul 31, 2010 -> 02:03 PM) Looking like Ted Lilly and Ryan Theriot are going to the Dodgers for DeWitt and other pieces. That's a solid deal for the Dodgers if they can afford it and the other pieces aren't much.
July 31, 201015 yr The cost to acquire Jake Westbrook? One AA-pitcher. (That's what the Tribe got for him.) And he agreed to reduce his trade bonus to help get it done.

July 31, 201015 yr QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 31, 2010 -> 02:29 PM) Who was the AA pitcher? Corey Kluber - a 4th round pick of the Pads in 2007. From MLBTR... Kluber, 24, has a 3.45 ERA in AA with 10.0 K/9 and 2.9 BB/9. The Padres selected the right-hander in the fourth round of the 2007 draft and have eased him through the minor leagues. In 122.2 innings this season, the 6'4" starter has allowed just 121 hits. Antonetti says the Indians like Kluber's four pitch mix and low-90s fastball. Edited July 31, 201015 yr by scenario
July 31, 201015 yr Yeah, I'd rather have done that deal with Westbrook. Cooper better think Jackson's a #1.
August 1, 201015 yr QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jul 31, 2010 -> 03:14 PM) LOL, Braves get Rick Ankiel & Kyle Farnsworth from KC For some useful pieces too. Dayton Moore got ex-Braves back. He must be happy.
August 1, 201015 yr QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 31, 2010 -> 09:38 PM) CarGo is absolutely amazing. I'm in love, man. You think I'm hard on KW right now? Let him give up a talent like Carlos like dumbass Billy Beane did and you'd have to put KW in the witness protection program. I'd dedicate my life to tracking him down.
August 1, 201015 yr In case no one else saw it, Carlos Gonzalez with a 460 ft walkoff homer to win the game and give him the cycle.

He very well could be a HOF caliber player if he stays in Colorado long-term

August 1, 201015 yr Ryan Howard helped off with a sprained ankle...if he's out for a long time, that really hurts them.

August 1, 201015 yr QUOTE (iamshack @ Aug 1, 2010 -> 07:40 PM) Ok Captain Obvious... Basically I didn't want to say that makes the Oswalt acquisition worthless this year, because you never know, he could go out and do a CC-with-the-Brewers type run and pitch them straight to the playoffs, but you know...that almost makes it all not matter.

Well, it could really kill them, being that they'd be without Howard and Utley for a big chunk of August...talk about a terrible time for a guy to get injured.. We'll have to wait and see how serious it is.
August 2, 201015 yr QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 2, 2010 -> 01:45 PM) Corey Hart signs a 3 year extension through 2013. Pretty good deal for Milwaukee. Even if Hart isn't this good over the next three years, having him at around $9 million per is pretty damn good.
