    Re: Thome Traded?

    LA was probably not the place to head for a ring. Two months ago I'da said good move, but they haven't been world beaters lately.

    LA = 14-13 in August. Not a good time to start slipping...

    Looking back a little further...since July, they've been playing a tick above .500 baseball.

    Re: Thome Traded?

    This is a good move for LA if they get to the series... Having Thome DH in New York will be pretty nice.

    Sox pull a very nice deal for Jose. Hynick actually has some talent.

    Kruk said that the Dodgers got him to make sure San Fran couldn't, but wouldn't they have first dibs?

    Hopefully he hits as well as he did last weekend in New York.

    God I hope the Twins don't win the wild card...Morneau friggin' loves the new Yankee Stadium.

    Re: Thome Traded?

    How do you get "dibs" when people go on waivers? First to claim?

    reverse order of record in your own league, then the next league.

    Re: Thome Traded?

    What is the purpose of the trading deadline when you can still trade afterwards? No team every puts in to stop a trade after the deadline anyways..

    Yup. He also said that Thome won't play 3B for LA because they have Casey Blake. No one ever accused Kruk of being smart.

    Garland just had to do the tunnel walk.

    At least I think that's what they just said on the MLB Network...
