The Chicago Cubs made a little noise last week with the two-year, $7.5 million deal for John Grabow and send Aaron Heilman to Arizona for a pair of prospects. Then Friday afternoon, the Cubs added five players to their major league roster ... three expected and two, well a little surprising. John Gaub , Welington Castillo and Blake Parker along with Rafael Dolis and James Adduci were protected from...
A few links to start the day... The NY Post's Bart Hubbuch reports that the rumored three-way deal involving Milton Bradley, Kevin Millwood and Luis Castillo "isn't happening because the Rangers aren't interested in giving up Millwood so easily." He also mentions that the Mets aren't expected to make any majors moves until the Winter Meetings in two weeks. Paul Sullivan at The Chicago Tribune...
The Mets entered last off-season with the goal of trading Luis Castillo and when their efforts failed to move him, they entered the season with him as their starting 2B. But a year later in which Castillo put up stellar table setter numbers, played the entire season healthy and is only owed 12MM over two more years the team seemed optimistic about their chances of moving him. Clearly the Mets are trying...
According to Bart Hubbuch of the New York Post, the three-way deal that would have sent Luis Castillo to the Cubs and Kevin Millwood to the Mets isn’t happening because the Rangers aren’t interested in giving up Millwood so easily. …i’m not sure sure i was keen on bringing in Millwood to begin with…outside of 2009, [...]
In the spirit of trying new things and accommodating my bizarre schedule, I'm going to shuffle the deck a little bit this morning and solely post the latest rumors/news trickling down from the top right now, then fill in the gaps with some actual analysis around the middle of the morning: ● Team officials from both the Rangers and the Cubs vehemently denied early-day reports that a three-way...
- Muskat blogged that the Blue Jays contacted the Cubs about Roy Halladay. ...there's a catch. He's owed $15.75 million in 2010, and the Blue Jays want some of the Cubs' top prospects. No. 1, the team can't take on Halladay's salary. The Blue Jays apparently have a wish list and Milton Bradley is not on it. A player like highly regarded shortstop Starlin Castro most likely is, and the Cubs don't want...
The Cubs will do almost anything to move Milton Bradley. Yay. One rumor has him to going back to Texas with Rangers pitcher Kevin Millwood moving to the Mets and the Mets sending the Cubs second baseman Luis Castillo, who...
Kind of a weird topic, right? But I have my reasoning. News broke Friday of a potential three-way deal that would send Milton Bradley back to Texas from the Cubs. Chicago would receive second baseman Luis Castillo from the Mets as their reward for shedding the malcontent, with Kevin Millwood heading to the Big Apple to complete the trade. This has been debunked by several sources, such as MLB Trade...
According to Adam Rubin, in a report for the Daily News, the Mets off-season shopping list is as follows: Catcher to replace Brian Schneider. Power upgrade in left field. Second baseman if Luis Castillo can be traded. Rotation help. Eighth-inning reliever. Second lefthander in the bullpen to pair with Pedro Feliciano. Yes, I like the simple idea of getting 20 home runs [...]
In a post to Amazin’ Avenue, Wendy Adair doesn’t feel that trading Luis Castillo ishould be a high priority for the Mets this off-season. Wendy points out that Castillo had a great offensive season and was one of the few players to avoid the disabled list, and given that plus the Mets need for pitching and [...]
Here is an ode to the totally out of control hot stove. Feel free to add any to my not-that-funny comments. My Anonymous Source(s)... ...is actually Scott Boras and he's behind on his payments ! ...guarantee that Matt Halladay will be a Met in 2010. ...claim that Omar Minaya broke a handshake agreement with Ramon Castro because Ramon gave him the dreaded "dead fish" handshake. ...are familiar...
John Delcos wonders what it will take to get Roy Halladay. Drew Costello at MetsFansForever did a complete analysis of the Mets infield (geez, it took me a month to do the same!) Andrew Vazzano at TheRopolitans offers the good and bad of trading Luis Castillo and signing Orlando Hudson. MetsPolice can’t get a press pass to Bisons [...]
Once the Braves acquired Mark Teixeira before the 2007 trade deadline, they started thinking of themselves as a World Series contender. They were 4.5 games behind the division-leading Mets and 3.0 games behind the Phillies, but there was still a sense of excitement when GM John Schuerholz made the move. "We've got the team to win the World Series," Brian McCann told the AP. Tim Hudson and...
One of the rumors floating around is that the Mets and Dodgers are talking about swapping Luis Castillo and Juan Pierre. But how can that help the Mets, who need a slugger? There’s at least one scenario where it can make sense … As MetsToday reader isuzudude points out, we discussed a Castillo – Pierre trade [...]
Tie Dyed of Mets Merized Online wonders if people should also blame swine flu and the recession on Omar Minaya and Luis Castillo. John, from Metstradamus, provides a You Tube tribute to Benny Agbayani, who had been playing for Bobby Valentine in Japan the last few seasons, and who announced his retirement yesterday. The MetsCitiBlog recalls “a [...]
