2012 Non-Yankee Trade Rumors/Discussion Thread

[d32123]

Rumors about Blanton to Baltimore.

[BroadwayBomber55]

Saw on Twitter its pending a physical but the Phils are getting Tommy Joseph in return

I also read some reports that Nate Schierholtz is added in the deal to go to the Phillies for Hunter Pence.

Shierholtz, Joseph, Rosin. Doesn't seem like much of a return for Pence but who knows.

Is this the Lester/Upton rumor coming to fruition?

I think the rumor was Lee, not Lester, for Upton.

[LongtimeNYYFan]

I would laugh if they traded Lee to a non-contender.

Per ESPN, Phillies have pulled Lee off the trading block.

Joel Sherman ‏@Joelsherman1 N.Cafardo of Globe reporting #Redsox getting Breslow. Have 9 gms left v. #Yankees, want to load up on LHs maybe even start Morales v. NYY


Ken Rosenthal ‏@Ken_Rosenthal
Albers is other piece going from #RedSox to #Diamondbacks with Podesednik for Breslow.

I think the rumor was Lee, not Lester, for Upton.

It was a rumor (Lester/Upton) started by Jayson Stark throwing it out on the radio this morning as a guess.

Turrible.

robneyer ‏@robneyer
Harold Reynolds just said on TV that Gaby Sanchez is "24, 25, at the max." Gaby Sanchez is almost 29.

.....lol Reynolds



robneyer ‏@robneyer
actually, that was too kind - Harold actually said Sanchez is 23 or 24, max.

Ken Rosenthal ‏@Ken_Rosenthal Source: #Reds get Broxton.

[MoVaughnEatsAlot]

I like Reynolds, he means well, but he is kind of an idiot.

[teknetic]

So Amaro essentially traded Cosart and Singleton for amounts to spare parts? Sweet.

[Yankee Tripper]

ESPN's Buster Olney reports that the Rangers have acquired right-hander Ryan Dempster from the Cubs.

Alex Speier ‏@alexspeier Lars Anderson was traded to the #indians

[flymick24]

boston PD better start prepping the city for riots

[StingrayJG]

Looks like the Breslow to boston deal is confirmed.

Albers & Podsednick going to SEA

I thought the pieces going back to SEA were still unconfirmed but looks like past posts got this right.

Breslow seems like a really good person.

[Jax Teller]

With the Dempster trade, Oswalt is moving to the pen

[teknetic]

Good signing, that.

Jeff PassanVerified ‏@JeffPassan

A sign that Bobby Valentine's influence isn't waning: He is a huge fan (and friend) of Craig Breslow, whom the Red Sox just acquired.

Hmm, I would have been in on that. This trade deadline was littered with buy-low guys (Hanley, McGehee, Gaby, Victorino) at some pretty good prices it seems.
