I think I'll wait until after the draft to evaluate the relative strength of each team's minors. I did go back and regrade the 2005 draft. I was looking for players that have made top prospect lists, project to be high draft pciks or established themselves in the majors. I don't know if Tom has a way to fin...

Petty went from half empty bullpen to one that is loaded with guys with closer ratings. AL save leader Bob Wickman and his .149 opp ave. with runners on base and a c(6) rating is available. Looking for help in CF to ameliorate the otherwise automatic out status that is Corey Patterson.

KC sends Endy Chavez to Elysian for 40k I know, it's a blockbuster.

Doug Frye

I am going to throw out there Endy Chavez, Gregg Dobbs, and John Flaherty for $40.

Ken Frye

Due to my activity in the C and FA. I now have available: Jorge De La Rosa, Trevor Miller and Miguel Cairo. Each of these can be had for the Waiver price of 40K. Why wait for the waivers when you can lock them up now. First offer will be accepted.

Eric

As post-auction tradition dictates, I am now compelled to update trade needs and try to get some action going again. I'm reasonably satisfied with how things turned out for Surprise. They ended up with my #1 target at 2B, two useful bench guys, and more money. However, there are s...

Attended the Texas vs Rice game last night at Minute Maid. Joe Savery of Rice squared off against Kyle McCulloch of Texas. McCulloch outpitched Savery but they both looked good. A few of the players I got to see included: Joe Savery Rice (GDP)- Threw real hard, although no speeds wer...
