IlliniKrush Posted July 16, 2003 Share Posted July 16, 2003 I guess this could happen in the next day or so for a few prospects. Could Rivera be one of them? I wonder what they will get. I would assume Weather takes over closing duties Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IlliniKrush Posted July 16, 2003 Author Share Posted July 16, 2003 Jul 16 Various news outlets are reporting that the Yankees and Mets are extremely close to a deal involving closer Armando Benitez. The New York Daily News says that the Mets will receive minor league pitching prospects Jason Anderson, Anderson Garcia, and Ryan Bicondoa. The Daily News also claims that commissioner Bud Selig told the two sides on Tuesday to delay any announcements in order to not detract attention from the All-Star Game. Instead, according to the Daily News, the trade will become official on Wednesday. "It's not done, but it's very serious and very close," a source told ESPN.com. "It's not done, but it might get done [Wednesday], it might get done Friday; you don't always know how things like this go." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CubKilla Posted July 16, 2003 Share Posted July 16, 2003 I guess that means we're stuck with Botch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bighurt52235 Posted July 16, 2003 Share Posted July 16, 2003 Rivera, as in Mariano? Or Juan Rivera? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bighurt52235 Posted July 16, 2003 Share Posted July 16, 2003 Ahh, yes. Thames is the one they traded to Cleveland. I got them confused. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mathew Posted July 16, 2003 Share Posted July 16, 2003 I guess that means we're stuck with Botch Benitez is quite similar to Botch, though better(because Benitez actually strikes people out) but they both throw a hard dead straight fastball. If Boch threw hard anymore they would be very alike. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
