Most Yank fans are happy with the turn of events in the Bronx today.Where is Boston getting all of this money to pay these guys? ()OK so I was out for most of the last few pages, but let me see if I'm caught up...Red Sox MIGHT have traded for Gagne, but we're waiting to hear if he'll take a backseat to Papelbomed (BTW, can't anyone else see both of these guys getting hurt before the end of the season?)Capella is currently playing the "Yanks should have traded away all of their youth" side of the Anti-Yankees debate?If they traded Melky or any of their youth, he'd be saying things like "same old Yankees", or "the system is unfair" (BTW, does anyone take him seriously when he isn't talking about the Rays?)Wilked has blown his load at least once today.Am I caught up?
Everyone is telling us it's not our year, then bashing us for looking towards the future. It's hysterical.We kept the kids. I'm very happy with that.

Baseball is about run differential, and the Sox are far and away #1 in this category. They score a lot, and don't give up many. Seems pretty simple to me...

Sorry, like i said earlier, I was trying to catch up.Yanks might miss it this year, but at least they didn't sell the ranch in hope for something that might happen. They stood pat and have one of the brightest pitching futures in the League (according to Baseball ProspectusEXACTLY what I said a page agoMost Yank fans are happy with the turn of events in the Bronx today.Where is Boston getting all of this money to pay these guys?

You don't have to convince me they didn't need to add to their bullpen but did need to add a bat to a so-so line-up, I already knew that. I'm sure JD Drew will be nails in September and October.How many runs do they need to score before the hitting is not shaky? Do they need to lead the AL in runs scored?Congratulations.

1100 AM in Cleveland is reporting that there is a possible twist to this Wickman deal and it could end up being a big trade that goes down to the deadline with league approval. They have a contigent deal in place with Cleveland and JS has jumped in and is in hot pursuit of Javier Vazquez.
The Braves are looking to trade Wickman to the Indians for Cliff Lee. Then JS trades Lee, Reyes, and Escobar to the White Sox for Vazquez.

If they traded Melky, you would have said "typical Yankees", no?

so then, how many runs do they need to score before they are no longer shaky with the bat? Do they need to be top 3?

Why would I have? I've said a hundred times on these boards I don't think Melky is that good.Try to make some sense here.

Hello? It just had to be submitted by 3pm CST. It still has to be approved which, sometimes, can take a while.

Just my perspective, I've been wrong before.There is still trading available...players just have to clear waivers. I think all of these players, except Escobar would clear waivers...just a thought

So what's wrong with Melky? Solid defensive OF, will get better with the bat. You've seen his offensive #'s since May and your retort was the season starts in April so your rational is, your only good if you have good months all year long?

No major position deals were struck for Boston. Ellsbury will prob be brought up once rosters expand... but he's certainly not a top end plug for that hole.

You'd have heard about it by now if it was submitted. There may be a few small deals that trickle through but nothing that big. This isn't like when the deadline was at midnight and it took until the morning to get all of the details out.Weapon of Mass Instruction said:
