I don’t know if it means anything but Brett Gardner is listed as Reserve status on the S-WB Yankees. Does that mean he may be moving soon?

Could be. Could also be that he just got demoted and hadn’t made it back to the team yet. I will say that I have seen minor leaguers get moved to their squad’s reserve list a day or so before they get traded.

Who woulda thunk the Yankees would have any interest in players like Sexson and Vidro.

Maybe the M’s should rummage around in the bottom of the ball bags for any random flotsam and offer it to the Yanks.

“Hey, look, here’s Miguel Cairo! He’s just like Luis Sojo!”

“Ooh, look at the shiny pizza crust! Want it?”

stuff flying is so entertaining … the S-L has the Mets kicking the tires on just about every one on the M’s

Dumping Washburn and Batista in the same week? Lee P. Might be the only interim general manager to win GM of the year…

Really, if Pelekoudas wanted to make a big immediate impression even though struggling for a cohesive plan which might impress the bosses, the road map is pretty clear-just start undoing just about anything that bares the Bavasi brand…..

There’s WAY too much flying around right now to be sure of what exactly is going on, but the one certain is that it seems like a deal is either done, or very near to it.

I wouldn’t get freaked out about any of the reports that are flying around.

Well…if we only got Melky or Gardner out of the deal I would have pooped my pants. Pelekoudas is digging his own grave be demanding a top tier prospect. He has to be upsetting GM’s by asking for the sun and the moon for all everyone he tries to trade.

So are we really demanding some high prospect in addition to the Yanks covering Wash’s whole contract??

We’ll find SOME way to F this up..
