July 29, 201312 yr QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Jul 29, 2013 -> 10:49 AM) I think they would of mentioned that in the article though or in the article the source they had only knows the specifics of Crain going to Tampa so that is all they included
July 29, 201312 yr QUOTE (GoGoSox2k2 @ Jul 29, 2013 -> 10:51 AM) or in the article the source they had only knows the specifics of Crain going to Tampa so that is all they included I am going to guess that mystery team is Braves. No credible sources, just my hunch. They've had interest in Crain previously, tied to Peavy if deal is going to get bigger.
July 29, 201312 yr QUOTE (scs787 @ Jul 29, 2013 -> 10:53 AM) Wonder if they've given up on Beckham?....Tim Beckham that is. That's a great name that could be on the way out. Interesting.
July 29, 201312 yr I buy Crain may be close but don't buy it with the Rays. If we trade Crain I still see him packaged with Peavy to Boston, but this could also signal we're trading Peavy to someone else other than Boston, like STL with Alexi (please)

The mystery team would be acquiring Crain, Tampa Bay just facilitating it.

July 29, 201312 yr Jon Heyman @JonHeymanCBS 57s #chisox are in talks on a deal involving injured all-star reliever jesse crain and the rays, as espn chicago reported Jon Heyman confirmed! It's red alert people!
July 29, 201312 yr Merely a rumor. Phil Rogers reported this, he probably made it up Let's wait and see if bucket knows anything about it.

It's red alert people! agreed. Heyman is one of the most reliable in the industry in my eyes when it comes to these situations

July 29, 201312 yr QUOTE (Frank_Thomas35 @ Jul 29, 2013 -> 11:05 AM) On a side-note, how much do you think these players tip the clubhouse attendants? I wonder how much is cash too.
July 29, 201312 yr Author QUOTE (Jerksticks @ Jul 29, 2013 -> 11:07 AM) I wonder how much is cash too. It is all cash. It is a baseball tradition to drop some money on the clubhouse guys at the end of the year.
July 29, 201312 yr I'm going to take a stab at the 3rd team...Tigers There are a lot of people assuming the Rays are the ones getting Crain. I don't think that's necessarily true. Edited July 29, 201312 yr by flavum
July 29, 201312 yr The interesting thing to me is why they'd need a third team. I suppose another veteran is involved. It could be we take the vet and the third team the conditional prospects.
July 29, 201312 yr I think Pittsburgh is the mystery team, hopefully with Rios or De Aza going too. It's cash and mota of course.
