I'm gonna combine this with the Jay Payton/Chad Bradford trade.

 

So, three trades to talk about...

 

 

Trade 1:

 

Boston gets Chad Bradford. Oakland gets Jay Payton.

 

 

Trade 2:

 

Washington gets Preston Wilson + $$$. Colorado gets Day and PTBNL.

 

 

Trade 3:

 

Oakland gets Witasick, Kennedy. Colorado gets Byrnes and Quintanilla.

Wow Eric Brynes, as much as I loved watching that guy play I am glad to see him leave. He always gave the White Sox trouble. I would love to have him instead of Timo.

 

Now he's on the Rockies...poor bastard. Nobody deserves that, especially a guy with actual talent.

Byrnes is the most overrated fielder in the game. Even more overrated than Jeter.

 

He gets painfully bad jumps, often breaking the wrong direction, but makes up for it with a diving stop that will somehow be #1 on Web Gems. A good fielder would never have to dive for the balls that Byrnes makes spectacular plays on.

He plays good against the sox. I don't have MLB extra innings or anything like that so I only watch him against the sox.

Weren't the Sox rumored to be involved in trade #2 to get Day?

That would have to be contingent on Boston getting another starter.

 

I can't really see the Pads giving up on Nevin. Who do they have in the wings?

 

 

Paul McAnulty- 7th overall prospect good power hitter, hits for AVG as well and solid with the glove as well. Won the SL homerun Derby today as well.

Boston outfielder Jay Payton has been traded to the Oakland A's for reliever Chad Bradford.

ESPN's Peter Gammons is now saying that Payton may be on his way to the Yankees, so we'll have to see. Payton was not happy with being a backup in Boston and was designated for assignment last Thursday. He hit .263 with five homers and 21 RBIs in 55 games for Boston. Jul. 13 - 6:27 pm et
