Baseball Trading Season
Yes, the winter meetings are finally underway and we just actually saw the first blockbuster trade of the off season. The Tigers got Cabrera and Dontrelle for some prospects. The trade talks between the Twins and the Boston Red Sox have heated up to a boiling point. It kind of brings me memories when we almost got A-Rod from the Texas Rangers for Manny. Santana however is a stellar pitcher and as you all know pitching and defense wins world championships not hitting. Another news worth piece is that Jacoby Ellsbury has just joined the dark side of the Borus Corporation so that means in 6 years he will be asking for a huge amount of money. I really hope that this move doesn’t put a damper on the Santana deal because word on the Boston streets is that Jacoby will be the centerpiece of any deal for Santana. The Twins are now thinking twice because they really dont want to deal with the evil Scott “I showed up the Red Sox during the World Series, by my ridiculous A-Rod announcement” Borus. The man we all love to hate but then again if I was a player I would sign with him because as we all know its about the MONEY!
