Trade Deadline


Down to the wire here. Manny looks like he will go. I hope not to the Marlins for Jeremy Hermida and Josh Willingham. Hopefully Andrew Miller gets thrown in the mix or Cameron Maybin.
Yes he has been doing this for 10 years (as I was so informed last evening via text) but he hasn't been doing it this blatantly (5.45 seconds to first base on a groundball down the line to third), plus the Red Sox are struggling and when you aren't winning minor issues become problems.

Another Note
Ivan Rodriguez for Kyle Farnsworth is a better trade for the Tigers. Ivan Rodriguez is a non factor since he stopped using steroids. He doesn't throw out 47% of runners like his career numbers dictate. Why would you deal for him when you have Jose Molina who throws out everybody even though he doesn't hit at all.
Kyle Farnsworth, although a lunatic throws hard and could be devistating along the likes of Zumaya and Rodney. This is one of those trades that makes the Yankees look good to people that don't know shit about anything.
