No gad damn way...

Pittsburgh just TOTALLY redeemed themselves... Alderson is a STUD.
Was, was a stud. Pittsburgh will change his mechanics and screw him up the way they do to every pitcher.

so true...but here's hoping anyways.
 
The Pirates brought in a good haul considering their track record.

Alderson has a quicker line to the bigs now. As good as he is I didn't see him getting a spot in the Giants rotation for a few years. Best of luck to him.
 
Besides McCutchen, do the Pirates have anyone on their roster that someone has heard of??

Lastings Milledge is expected to be called-up. Milledge + McCutchen =
pimp.gif


in light of the fire sale, Pirates fans should be excited that the Milledge & McCutchen era is about to begin.
 
The Indians did not get "robbed", Carassco is nice starter, think Ricky Romero with a better fastball, Jason Donald is an everyday player, JasonKnapp is a highly rated prospect but he will never be healthy, him and Adam Miller can get matching slings for there future labrum tears.

The Giants got robbed.

The reason the people say the Indians got robbed is because the Phils didn't have to include JA Happ or Kyle Drabek. If they would havereceived one of them, no one would be crying "robbery". In that deal, I only see Carassco and maybe Donald panning out.

The Giants did indeed get robbed. They were the clear front runner for Sanchez, and it was no secret that the Pirates wanted to dump Sanchez' salarybefore the deadline. Getting Tim Alderson was a nice move by the Pirates.

That being said, the Giants got off to a bad start after the All Star break, and their second base situation was really bad, and they addressed it. They paida high price, but they addressed one of their holes. They didn't address their need for a power bat, I thought they were going to make a run at Adam Dunn.
 
The reason the Indians got robbed is because two of the players they acquired are going to be blocked.

Future catcher: Carlos Santana, not Lou Marson.

Future middle infield: Asdrubal Cabrera and Luis Valbuena, not one of them and Jason Donald.

[h1]Nats Expect To Be Quiet; Will Consider Deals[/h1]
By Ben Nicholson-Smith [July 29, 2009 at 3:55pm CST]

The Nats will likely consider dealing Joe Beimel, Willie Harris and Nick Johnson within the next two days, but Chico Harlan of the Washington Post says the team has incentive to keep Adam Dunn and hot-hitting Josh Willingham. Harlan hears that the Nats are asking a lot for either slugger and would happily keep both.

The market for Nick Johnson has worsened now that the Red Sox and Giants added first basemen. Earlier in the month, GM Mike Rizzo said he didn't anticipate a particularly active trade deadline.


if Josh Willingham, Adam Dunn, and Nick Johnson are all still members of the Washington Nationals after the trade deadline, i will be very angry.

JA Happ isn't good so that's irrelevant, plus Carassco is better.

Plus would you really give up an A prospect for Lee? I wouldn't.

Knapp needs to build his arm strength. Carsacco can look unhittable for 6 innings but then he has the
sick.gif
inning , if he works on that he could be a good ml pitcher.



edit: Francisco is prolly gonna take vics spot
