Any predictions before the trade deadline?

Rasmus will be gone from St Louis, for a serviceable #4 starter, and McClellan will move back to the bullpen (he's been the #5 starter since Waino went down).

The Cubs will trade Starlin Castro for a bag of magic beans and a stalk to be named later.

Yup.

Baltimore will still continue to suck and will do something stupid like trade a decent (not that we have one) pitcher for an aging DH.

The Braves suck...there is your trade deadline.

I can not stand to watch Gonzalez or Heyward bat...it's turrible.

Here's the deal. Heyward has too much natural talent and is way too young to even think about trading him. But Gonzales and McClouth need to be served up on a platter to someone...anyone. I was yelling at the tube last night every time one of them came to bat. YOU SUCK!!!!!

The Braves need to bite the bullet, unload these two clowns and go get a big stick or two. That used to be the M.O. for Sheurholz (sp?) every year. See where they are at the break, then go get what they need.

I would be ok with keeping McClouth and getting rid of Gonzo and Dan look at me sporting a .196 average Uggla.

I believe Mr. Uggla is on a 16 game hitting streak...just saying.

Jobu still can't heet the curve ball. Uggla does look to be coming around and despite him being below the Mendoza line all year, his production hasn't been too bad. He could wind up with Dave Kingman type numbers. Probably before most of your times, but Kingman was a big 6'7" dude who took a mammoth swing every time. Averaged right at 28 homers a year...and 113 strikeouts a year. Career .236 hitter.

The Astros plan to trade their entire fucking team to Sea World in exchange for Shamu and two trained seals that can balance baseballs on their nose.

Oh yeah...

Had to use a crooked broom, because, you know...it was just the Astros.

Fuck you.

I don't have the energy for anything more creative. The Suckasstros done sucked all the life right out of me.

The Cardinals have traded center fielder Colby Rasmus and relievers P.J. Walters and Trever Miller to the Toronto Blue Jays in a multi-player package including starting pitcher Edwin Jackson, relievers Octavio Dotel and Marc Rzepczynski and outfielder Corey Patterson, according to sources familiar with the situation. An announcement could come early this afternoon.

The Astros announcer used to say...

OCT-tavio DOOOOOOOOOOtel!!

He sucks tho. That Astro smell won't wash off.

Here's a pic of the new Bluejay's OF, Colby Rasmus

Most awesome thing you have ever posted on here.

Snaggletiger · « **Reply #376 on:** July 27, 2011, 03:19:03 PM »

Damn, that's gonna' leave a mark. However, he is in Toronto now so he doesn't give a shitake.

Oh, and the Braves get off teh schnides on a bad call in the 97th inning. I went to bed after the top of the 42nd.

Tiger Wench · « **Reply #377 on:** July 27, 2011, 03:27:53 PM »

Not that it even matters, nor do I give a serious shit, but the Suckasstros got fucked on a bad call last night too. Pujols was credited with a 2 run homer even after a review plainly showed it bounced off the wall and should have been a double. They lost 3-1. Not that they would have won, but the Card bullpen SUCKS... there might have been a chance.

We are going to lose 100+ games this year. Bank it.

I'll agree with you, but I'm happy with the results. And you batted in the 9th with the tying run at the plate, what more do you want?

Careful. She'll answer you.
