    Frank will overuse you, that's for sure.

    Soriano still a Nat. I can cling to hope.

    Hey fanboy, PM me.

    Fuck this fucking team. They're going to win just enough to save Dusty's fucking job.

    Though supposedly, the Astros and Twins have stepped up efforts to try and land him. All rumors from ESPN, of course.

    If that's true, maybe the Twins will just sit on their hands and waste the opportunity they have. That would have been the perfect fit for Carlos Lee, even moreso than Soriano.

    What the fuck? Dusty Baker actually got off his fat ass and got thrown out of a game?

    Anybody seen any airborne pigs?

    Why is Houston even trying? They're not that good and the Stros best offensive player is probably en route to the DL -- it looked like Berkman aggravated his hamstring injury.

    The lineup is suspect at best, the starting pitching really is just three deep at best and the bullpen makes this year's Reds squad look like the Nasty Boys 2.0.

    Do they think they can ink Soriano to a long-term deal? That's great if they can. Otherwise, they'll sacrifice prospects for a futile playoff run.

    Absolutely true. Twins were supposedly all hot and bothered for Soriano last year too.

    And doesn't Tim Purpura say he's out of money every time he makes another deal?

    Pat Burrell out of the lineup for the third straight game. And not hurt, to the best of my knowledge.

    STANTON traded, not Soriano. To the Giants for some kid who is TWENTY years younger.

    Too bad he said he would only accept a trade to the Yankees or Red Sox. Kind of cut off the Phillies' leverage there.
