Burnett for K-Rod in a vacuum. Which side wins?

Back to business – since he can get crazy hot, I grabbed Thames to fill in for Beltran.

David Murphy, Gwynn, Fowler or Guillen a better option?

Depends on needs of course.

@Grey: There’s a ‘more info’ link in the grey box to the right of the vid screen. Saved you the trouble at this late hour:

AAA outfielder Josh Womack demonstrates his crazy bat skills at Long Beach Armada 2009 Training Camp. Womack’s ability to swing the bat around and catch it again are only surpassed the his sharp wit. After he realized camp had stopped down to watch him, pitcher Jose Lima yelled out “nice pants!” to which Womack replies “Nice face.” ZING! Should be a great season.

@matthole: Both offers are fair. I'd prefer the MI sides.

@matthole: Depends what you can get him for. @Steve: My senile grandfather? @matthole: I'd take A-Rod.

Hate to say it Garrett, but not playing in an AL park may be the final straw. You have 6 days left to show some proof of life.

@Grey: Fugu too. I hope it was chicken soup so clear it looked like water, along with a piece of white toast that had nothing on it.

From Rotowire:

Votto is with the team and staying at the team hotel in Toronto on Monday night, the Cincinnati Enquirer reports.
Spin:
The Reds haven’t made an official announcement, but the clear inference here is that Votto will return on Tuesday, playing in his hometown.

There was no report on what he ate for dinner.

@Tony Y: Valbuena @struggler: Too early to say, the Rays may trade for someone. @big o: Ha! @Steve: You can lose him.

@Grey: Is Ervin even worth owning anymore?

By: Steve

Steve — Tue, 23 Jun 2009 04:02:10 +0000

Ervin back to the DL.

Across 3 teams, that’s him, Beltran, Peavy, Aramis, Votto, Volquez and Ibanez – with Valverde and Iannetta just back.

That’s the thick end of a pretty good team.

@struggler: @BigFatHippo: @Grey: 5TH closer ??? hippos on vacay . 5th closer is the bartender telling him to get the hell out !!!

By: struggler

You don’t think Howell finishes out the year as a closer or just too early to make that call?

@Doug Ault: I live in OHIO doug, but thanks, i know where cincy is, my brother lives there, haha and toronto, straight up 75. If votto does play tomm i wanna be able to get him him so i need a roster spot open. DROP VALBUENA (CLE) or MCGHEE (MIL)?

By: Grey

Grey — Tue, 23 Jun 2009 03:36:19 +0000

@struggler: I'm not low on him, but Frasor's slightly better of a bet for saves. I'd own both though.
