Rumor: O’s-Reds trade done
ByKen Rosenthal says the rumored Ramon Hernandez for Ryan Freel deal has been agreed to, and is pending MLB approval because of the money changing hands. We’ll update with more as we get it. The Matt Wieters Era begins.
Hmmm now the O’s have a guy that can play 2b….Brian Roberts on the move
Confused as to why this trade would be posted as a headline on a Yanks blog, but whatever.
I hope this doesn’t mean Brian Roberts to the Yanks when they trade Cano rumors.
Maybe because the author of the thread is currently attend baseball’s Winter Meetings?
Its better than the 1000th post about CC wanting to stay on the west coast b/c they have better sushi or whatever reason comes up next.
tou-che
and personally i like baseball stuff and a yankee-centric site should still keep up to date on the comings and goings of the rest of the league
I hope this doesn’t mean Brian Roberts to the Yanks when they trade Cano rumors.
Sadly, I’m sure it will.
Although, here’s how we make it interesting: We can take bets on whether we’ll see more “Trade for Roberts and then deal Cano to the Dodgers for Kemp” rumors, or more “Trade for Roberts and move him to Short and Jeter to First” rumors.
Let’s set the line for Roberts/Cano/Kemp at minus-7.
those are pretty good odds……you running the line yourself?
0:-)
RAB is a very minorleague-aware blog, therefor this is a pretty big deal.
Glad to get Hernandez out of the AL. He hit the Yanks well (and nobody else, apparently).
Go away Kevin Millar !! Get that guy to the NL too
I could see Roberts being floated to Chicago in the Peavy-Chicago-Balt deal, they looked hard at him last year
what happened to the peavythread? i go to tpost and its dleted haha
Fatrencesa is the bigeest asshole there is I hope his show flops. he knows nothing
all he does his shout down his guest or caller God I wish i had better reception at work
Hey, if you guys see Sweeny Murti, give him a pat on the back. He’s currently engaged in a conversation of Mike Francesa and he sounds so stressed.
From MLBTR:
Surely they jest?!
Nope, actually Sweeny Murti the same exact point just moments ago on WFAN. It makes sense, if you’re the respective agents for A.J. Burnett, Derk Lowe and Ben Sheets, why wouldn’t you up the asking price for those guys if the Yanks are out on CC Sabathia. This reason – among many others – is why everyone who is suggesting the Yankees move on from Sabathia are fucking idiots; they don’t factor in the ramifications of such a decision; they are only factoring some idiotic, “Yankee pride”, or whatever the fuck they are crying about.
Wouldn’t mind ROBERTS to the Yanks, that way we good get rid of “Bad Attitude Cano” in a hurry. Don’t worry about 1st Base, Adrian Gonzalez will fill that spot nicely, IF we don’t get TEX? We gotta get Bobby A back, and quickly! Then just worry about the Pitching Staff. Thats where our problems lay. Even a couple of middle range starters ( Garland?) would be okay, we are not that far away from that next Pennant. Onw other thought: I sure would like the Yanks to finish that McLOUTH deal with Pirates, thats the final piece of this puzzle.
Ugh. Take that to LoHud.

This absolutely, positively, without a doubt has to be satire.
There is no possible way that any human being who actually agrees with any single line of thought contained in that monstrosity of stupidity could have typed that out in full English words and sentences, could have possessed the opposable thumbs necessary do complete said typing and computer manipulation, or could have managed to live to an age of viability and self-sustenance necessary as a prerequisite for the evolution of language itself without accidentally killing itself in some sad and pathetic way, like exposure.
Hence, Ockham’s Razor dictates that it’s a carefully crafted satire to poke fun and people actually dumb enough to think any of those things.
Well done, “Lloyd Johnson”. You are a super-genius, a giant among men. Jonathan Swift himself bows down at your feet. Your satirical ability is unmatched. You, sir, are the greatest writer ever.
