Yankees never really expressed interest.

Jerome from Manhattan is probably going to suffer a conniption tonight.

Good deal for the Brews, though LaPorta will crack the Indians OF right away. He's the real deal, IMO. They are taking their run. Good for them.

On the bright side (from a Mets point of view), they will have to choose between CC and Sheets this winter. Sheets could end up a Met, especially if Pedro and Ollie walk.

and spend his career here on the DL.

The McGimpy does most things upside down: eats, sleeps (an average of 23 hours per day), mates, and gives birth. Because of the McGimpy's upside down life, many of the McGimpy's internal organs (liver, stomach, spleen, pancreas) are in different positions from other mammals. McGimpy sometimes lets out a cry or hissing sound.

During the rare times the McGimpy goes down to the ground (such as to change trees for food), it moves very slowly.

Yup.

Shame we are still festering around a playoff spot and contention here, or I would like to see if the Rays have any interest in Wagner. Fleece them of a few prospects, not like their farm is hurting for them or anything.

metman

Why? You want the Yankees to overtake them?

I would deal Wagner regardless. Do closer by committee.

I wonder how long before the Brewer fans ***** and moan about CC if he is a .500 pitcher?

Great trade for the Brewers. Yes, they gave up a stud hitting prospect (expendable since they lacked a position for him) for a potential rental but they'll either sign Sabathia or get 2 draft picks, where with the way they've drafted recently might even be more valuable long-term.

metman

Should have traded Fielder before he becomes 400 lbs of paycheck.

Right after he signs the biggest contract for a pitcher in history and blames Prince Fielder for his giving up a Grand Slam to an AL pitcher (who swung with his eyes closed).

Yeah they get to choose between the Alou or Mo Vaughn of Pitchers....awesome.

Good, I hope they bury the Cubs (who I hate irrationally, for some reason) and Cardinals (who I hate for obvious reasons, including but not limited to La Russa and Pujols).

uphill struggle

Jul 8 Bart Hubbuch, of the New York Post, reports the New York Mets talked with the Cleveland Indians about acquiring Milwaukee Brewers SP CC Sabathia in exchange for four prospects. Mets general manager Omar Minaya eventually declined a potential deal because the team had not decided how aggressive they wanted to be before the trade deadline.

MrHat

I have no problem with Omar skipping out on CC. I think he's another Colon waiting to happen. I'm sure he'll have a couple more good years, but you cant carry around that weight forever. Besides, starting pitching has not really been the Mets problem this year
