He can play first base, third base, left, and right field. Useful for when Tex wants to DH, A-Rod needs a day off, pinch hitting, Melky/Swisher get cold, or Damons knees get sore. I think it's actually a pretty good trade, we gave up nothing really and Hinske does have a little power in his bat.

Sucks if your a Pirates fan though. Even the players are pissed off at all the moves lol.

Are baseball Umps getting worse every year. Here is a quote taken from Jeter after he was called out while trying to steal 3rd base. There is a great video on yankees.com showing that he was never tagged.

Quote:

"I was just baffled by the explanation," Jeter said. "I was told I was out, because the ball beat me, and he didn't have to tag me. I was unaware they had changed the rules." ~ Derek Jeter

The Blue Jays are starting to take trade offers for Doc Halladay. He has a no trade clause but has agreed to look at possible trades that are in the best interest of the team.

He can go anywhere except to the Yankees as far as I'm concerned.

I don't think the Yankees are going to trade for him. It will cost way too much of the farm that Cashman is trying to rebuild.

I don't think the Mets have enough in the farm to even offer.

I dunno, the Yankees haven't gotten much out of Wang and he's hurt again. Chamberlain hasn't been great as of late and they want to keep Hughes in the pen, so there really isn't anyone to fill the gap. They might make a move for him. I could see the Red Sox willing to pony up a nice offer as well as Smoltz is quite the question mark in their rotation. The Mets I doubt could offer anything worthwhile for him.

It'll be interesting to see how it goes, but i'm banking on the Bluebirds keeping him.
