Rumor Thread
UPDATE 2: This team steadfastly refuses to complete trades in a timely fashion.
UPDATE: Jarrod Washburn has been traded to the Yankees. Not yet sure on the return.
Go to town.
We're headed to the eighth inning, with Seattle down 8-3, but on the bigger news front, we're hearing buzz that Jarrod Washburn might not make it to tomorrow with the M's. A trade with the New York Yankees appears imminent. We're trying to peer into the dugout to see whether he's still there. We'll have an update after the game.
FSN's reporting a Washburn/Vidro for Cabrera/Igawa rumor.
Jayson Stark:
Even Ibanez may not be affordable, however. Seattle hasn’t asked interested teams for specific names yet. But the Mariners are one of many clubs saying that, because Ibanez projects as a Type A free agent, they would want the equivalent of a first-round pick and a sandwich pick for him.

If the Mariners manage to trade Washburn and Vidro
Well, I’ll buy a new ball cap.

I'd expect an emergency callup tomorrow.
Then Hyphen to be recalled later in the week.

Because I don't want anything to ruin this
I will assume that Igawa is “retiring” after this year and the M’s want him so they can send Morrow down.
FanShots are underrated.

Vidro isn't Matsui's replacement is he?

So many great minor characters like Weyoum and Dukat.

Best ST Alien character ever.
of all the alien characters Garak should have gotten his own movie…
But then they still have not done a Klingon movie but that is another topic.

I wouldn't call either of those two minor characters
given there was a three-season story arc around them…

DS9 was the best Stark Trek series ever created.
I believe this was because since it took place pn a stationary object, the story had to be character driven rather than plot driven like the rest. This made for much more interesting stories to people like me who prefer that style of storytelling.

Yankees fans
think they’re not going to use Washburn. They think the trade was just to dump Igawa.

I hope they use Washburn.
His regression to the mean will help tank the Yankees.

I look at his stats...
...and he seems like a bit of an OF Jose Lopez. 87 career OPS+ for Melky and 82 career OPS+ for Lopez. I wouldn’t be that surprised if Melky could be a league average hitter next year (the way that Lopez has been so far this year.) Melky’s also been pretty unlucky this year according to PrOPS.
