More crazy rumor guy. And Oleg's girl.

"The Blue Jays want to move Roy Halladay this offseason and have contacted the Cubs about a potential trade, according to MLB.com's Carrie Muskat. However, it's unlcear if the Cubs have room for another $15.75MM in payroll. Plus, they'd have to be willing to part with top prospects, such as shortstop Starlin Castro, to obtain the Jays' ace."

You're jealous.

There couldn't possibly be less story here.
The Blue Jays are trying to trade their best player, so they're calling all the teams.
The Cubs have limited extra funds, so it's unlikely.

Nice reporting, CRG.

Oleg and the Muskrat is fairly interesting though.
I can't believe I even know these people. I'm ashamed of my internet life.

Hendry traded Muskrat to Oleg for a dimebag? Maybe Jimbo's best trade yet.

Vernon Wells and Roy Halladay for Milton Bradley, Starlin Castro, Jake Fox, and Josh Vitters. Make it happen, Jim

It's not worth it if they have to take on Wells' contract.

Granderson.  Castillo.  Wells. Halladay.   Why do I have this nagging feeling that Hendry is sitting in his dark office (with the shades drawn)  and is starting all of these rumors so he can read the boards and the blogs as his research?
If I had known that I was going to live this long I would have taken better care of myself.   (Plagerized from numerous other folks)

Who's DFA'd?  Muskat or the herb?
I think he's more of the appendix of Desipio.  Yeah, it's here and you're vaguely aware of it, but only if reminded.  The only time anyone notices it is when it ruptures (on Weebs in the video game thread).  Beyond that, though, it's basically useless and offers no redeeming value.

Grabow's contract leads me to believe Hendry already smoked all the weed.

I think it might have been the 3rd option, Oleg might not have been able
to tame the Muskbag.

Thanks, Pre.  At least SOMEBODY "gets it".

Donuts just got a boner. Jose Lopez, Felipe Lopez and possibly Luis Castillo? kaBOOM

"Geoff Baker of the Seattle Times believes the Mariners will try to deal second baseman Jose Lopez this offseason.
The M's value things like on-base percentage and defense, and Lopez isn't particularly strong in either fields. With infield prospect Dustin Ackley on the way, the club can trade Lopez now, while his value is highest, and find a one or two-year solution to fill the hole. The 25-year-old hit .272/.303/.463 this past season with 25 home runs, 42 doubles and 96 RBI.

What's the over/under on days until Sullivan writes an article making up a Milton Bradley trade that includes getting those 2 (J. Lopez and Castillo)? 1 or 2?
