Busy Day Off the Diamond

Today was a big day in the mlb as the following moves happened:

The Pirates acquired Jason Michaels from the Indians for a player to be named later.
Michaels will be on he 25man roster today.

The Toronto Blue Jays have signed OF Brad Wilkerson and have traded for OF Kevin Mench.
Wilkerson was cut by the Mariners recently and Mench was traded from the Rangers for a player to be named later.

Derrick Turnbow accepted his assignment to AAA today as the Brewers' trade attempts fell through with the four teams interested.

BREAKING NEWS: The Padres have released Jim Edmonds. With the extra spot on the roster they called up Jody Gerut. I Belive that he will either retire or play for a NEEDY team for a SMALL amount of money.


Small Note: NY Post reports David Wells is interested in a 3rd stint with the yankees. Hank Steinbrenner is intruiged by this idea but he would like to see how the prospects turn out before even considering a signing of any kind.


That is todays news.
