Baseball and stuff

Ted Lilly on the DL + Matt Holliday is a Cardinal now + rumors of Milton Bradley going to the Tigers = one effed up week for the Cubs. It will be interesting to see if the Cubs add or subtract anything from this team to bulk up for their run at the NL Central. Rumors surrounding the addition of George Sherrill and/or Adam Dunn have been making the rounds. Of those two I would put more money on the Sherrill acquisition, but I doubt either of them happen.

The White Sox have been pretty bad lately. Leaving crap loads of guys on base. Bobby Jenks has blown two big saves in a row. Scott Linebrink is either injured and sucks or is just bad and sucks. Rumors are flying around that team as well. Ozzie has said that he thinks nothing will happen, but I don't think you can ever count out the Sox making a splash while Kenny Williams is GM. Names that have been floating around have been Roy Halladay, Dan Haren, Zack Duke, and Justin Duchscherer, but for some reason I doubt the Sox add anything of substance before the deadline.


With all that being said and with the MLB trade deadline getting ever so closer, I thought I would share these two gems with you guys:

Jerry Crasnick grades nine blockbuster trades in response to the "Roy Halladay Sweepstakes."

Sports Illustrated gives us 25 of the best deadline deals.
