Good on the Mariners locking up Felix Hernandez. I think they're just one big bat away.
I still hope for Giancarlo.

trading Felix for Lars Anderson, Daniel Bard, Michael Bowden, and Jed Lowerie.

Hold on one moment:
Seattle putting Felix deal on hold due to elbow "issue" discovered during an MRI.
My friend who is a Cleveland fan is very excited.Damn, the Indians get Bourn.
Good move, and I wish he wasn't coming to the AL Central. Indians will have a completely new look outfield in 2013: Bourn, Stubbs, and Swisher. Solid. There are weaknesses there, of course, but that's still the best looking Cleveland outfield in years.
I think Carlos Santana is primed to break out one of these years.
Didn't they just got that top prospect from Arizona in the Choo trade?
Except not really. Because nothing was ever officially announced by any side. There has been no official statement from agency nor team. So there's no "on hold" about it.
They still don't have any starting pitching whatsoever, so they'll likely still suck, but the lineup looks to be pretty good:

Except yes really. Bottom Line, the M's are concerned with his elbow so the deal that hasn't been announced officially has been unofficially put on hold.
And now, after not being on hold (since it was never confirmed by anyone in the know), the deal has been announced. For the first time by either side on the negotiation.
Yeah, and once his contract will be over, he'll almost be old enough to sign a ten year deal with the Yankees!
Since 2009, there have been two (or three) more perfect games than Joey Votto pop-ups.

I like your style, tourist! I know personally that when A-Rod is too overwhelmed to count his money that he spends large amounts of time staring fondly at his 2009 World Series ring. That ten year contract of A-Rod's was Boss George's way of making sure that they would remember him long after he died. I suppose when Felix gets overwhelmed counting his money, he can at least stare fondly at his Cy Young trophy.
