Crazy Uncle Milton's Shot Blasting Sploogefest Emporium

[Kermit, B.]

God damn it, i was kidding.

According to Ken Rosenthal of FOXSports.com, the Cubs have discussed the framework of a three-team deal involving Milton Bradley.
The idea is described as a longshot, but here's how it would play out: Bradley will go to the Blue Jays. Lyle Overbay will head to the Mets. And Luis Castillo will land with the Cubs. The teams involved have only discussed the deal's framework, and not in direct fashion, according to Rosenthal's sources. It makes some sense, but feels a bit far-fetched to be taken too seriously.

Sweet.  The next obvious step is to pick up Juan Pierre and win the 2003 NLCS.

In that case, it's a good thing Holly is still in town too.

If it means Josh Beckett and Miguel Cabrera are coming, I say pull the trigger.

They're only coming if you're fluffing them.

Oh, he's fluffing them alright.  He'll be fluffing them so good they'll think they're made of feathers.  Sweaty, rock-hard, full-on feathers.

Makes sense to rush to a decision.

"Phil Rogers of the Chicago Tribune reports that the Cubs are trying hard to trade Milton Bradley within the next 36 hours.
Rogers finds it hard to believe that anybody will take him, but according to several reports, the Rangers have emerged as a potential landing spot for the troubled outfielder. Rogers also notes the Rays, who have been linked in discussions for Bradley since he was made available.

That doesn't even make sense.  Phil Rogers knows how to tweet and I don't?

Think he's making it up? I do

[Simmer]

My sources were telling me the same -- Milton to Toronto, Castillo to Chicago, Overbay to New York.  They also tell me the deal is bullshit, and has little chance of happening.

Luis Castillo, huh? What, Steve Garvey isn't available?

He's on a fishing boat with Michael Floorwax.

And I thought I was the only one who watched Cheap Seats.  One more person and we can start a Boob Tube thread.

Count me in.  Do You Care, Vinny Romeo?

[MAD]

Wait.  Simmer has "sources" now?

[Simmer]

My source is the fountain of knowledge (no, not Phil Rogers), the internet.  I just wish Gil would 'close the deal' already.

My sources say other things

Translation: "Milton's trade value is at an all-time low and I'm going to start the PR Express now on the "2009 was an aberration" track before I get killed for trading him for some shithead while at the same time eating 50% of his salary."
