It's not too late for for trades that go through waivers, though. And it's possible that non-waiver trades have gone through but haven't been announced yet.

True, forgot about that.

I wonder how soon they'll have Bay practicing for the wall. Manny played it damn well, even though all you usually see are blunders.

I'm sure it's been answered before, but why are trades allowed after the trade deadline? I'm confused as shit.

Players have to pass through waivers in order to be moved.

^^ Along with that, any team can claim that player, you have 48 hours to work out a trade. If more than one team claims the player, the lowest ranking team gets priority. I think thats all the rules

Yeah pretty much the worst team like say the Nationals would have first priority in the waiver rankings and the Cubs would be last....

Quote :
"Jimmy Rollins...go f**k yourself.
I'm so pissed, there's not even letters big enough on this blog site to give it justice.

Jimmy Rollins called us frontrunners.

Frontrunners.

He was asked today on the "Best Damn Sports Show" what it was like playing in Philadelphia, if it was sometimes tough. He and Howard were on there and both answered "yeah, it can be tough". Now Rollins could have stopped right there and I wouldn't have cared.

But he didn't. He went on to say "I'll probably get some flak for this, but they're frontrunners. When things are going good they're with you, when they're not they're against you". Even the hosts of the show said to Rollins "yeah, but it's like that everywhere". But ohhhhh noooooo, Rollins disagreed. He said "Ryan (Howard) grew up in St. Louis. It seems like no matter what they come out and support their team".

First of all, let's discuss the definition of "frontrunner". A "frontrunner", Jimmy Rollins you traitorous, turncoat, disloyal, mother'f'er, is a fan who roots for you when you are doing good, and then ROOTS FOR SOMEBODY ELSE WHEN YOU ARE DOING BAD.

Or, is a fan, who when his team is doing good, will stand up for his team against the jibes, barbs, or common idiocy from fans of other teams...but when the team is going bad, will join the party and pile on with the fan from the other team, rather than have the guts to still stick up for his team.

EVERY DAY, 365 DAYS A YEAR, 7 DAYS A WEEK, 24 HOURS A DAY, NO MATTER WHERE, WHEN, OR UNDER WHAT CIRCUMSTANCES, I STAND UP FOR MY TEAMS...YOU MISERABLE, UNGRATEFUL, UNAPPRECIATIVE, STUPID ASSHOLE!!!!! I DO IT EVEN WHEN I HAVE NO UNEARTHLY BUSINESS DOING IT, BUT I DO IT ANYWAY!

And you want to know why Jimmy Rollins? Because these are MY teams. These are MY players. And I will defend them because I want to see them do well and I want them to win. And NO jackass mother'f'er fan from another team is going to criticize my teams and my players with impunity and get away with it. I won't stand for it.

I have the exclusive right to criticize my teams and my players because I have the vested interest and because I GIVE A DAMN!! I CARE!!! I'm not some apathetic pile of shit fan from another city who could give a flying 'f' if their teams wins or loses. They show up when their team is winning. And they totally disappear if they are not.

No, that's not me. Everyday I'm on the frontlines doing, for the most part, the thankless job of defending my teams against the slime and crud from New York, and Dallas, and Pittsburgh, and New England, and whatever other frontrunning c*cks*cker fan their is in this county. But do I get appreciated for that? Do I get a thank you? NO. I get called a frontrunner.

You know what Rollins? Considering you've had an absolutely ATROCIOUS year, and have DONE NOTHING to help this team win, the fans have cut you a whole bunch of slack. You haven't been even CLOSE to the level you should be. More or less the fans have given you a free pass. So WHO ARE YOU TO CRITICIZE US? I'm sorry I care. I'm sorry I want to see you play up to your potential. I'm sorry I want to see you do well. I guess I'm just a horrible person. If you want to play for St. Louis, then get the fuck out of here. Get your bags packed, and get the FUCK OUT. I don't think an athlete in this city has EVER insulted me the way you have. Not even McNabb. And believe me, that's saying something.

So Rollins, TAKE YOUR LOUSY .260 AVERAGE, YOUR LOUSY 8 HOMERUNS AND 40 RBIs, AND GET THE FUCK OUT OF HERE YOU SON OF A BITCH!!!!!

Ohhhhhhhhh man. You thought it was bad before? I NOW MAKE IT MY SOLE MISSION IN LIFE TO SEE YOU OFF THIS TEAM AND TO BOO YOU UNMERCIFULLY FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE!!! YOU UNGRATEFUL FUCK!!!! FUCK YOU AND YOUR NOT RUNNING OUT POPS AND GROUNDBALLS. FUCK YOU AND YOUR LOUSY ATTITUDE. FUCK YOU...PERIOD!!!

Jimmy, may you suffer a career ending injury...and that is not a joke, I mean that from the bottom of my heart. You suck. Your an ass. And I hate your guts.

that is one of the best things i've ever read. and what made it so much better is that I read it aloud in my head in a dirtbag Philly fan's voice.

is there anybody out there whose team is not in the playoff race that is NOT rooting for the Devil Rays?

I mean, how can you not cheer for them (unless you're a Yankee fan, I guess)

mlb.tv FINALLY gave the option to choose which TV feed you can watch for premium users.

Gone are the days of me having to mute Tommy Hutton and the crappy ass Marlins pbp guy when the Mets play them.

Oh and I can listen to Hawk call all non-network White Sox games now!!!

David Price is finally getting called up by the Rays. Might be one of the top pitchers in baseball in a very short time.

I saw that. That is huge for the rays. I think he has a 2.10 ERA in AAA? He looks like he might be sick.

Hopefully not another Andrew Miller.

Give Andrew Miller a little more time to develop, he has shown good signs this year. He will be in the Marlins rotation soon enough.

Miller's thrown 180 innings in MLB and his WHIP is still a silly 1.64 this year. If he doesn't get it together soon I don't see his value in the MLB level.
