We probably traded for Ubaldo Gimenez......their Triple A long reliever.

The hold up is probably who the second COL player is gonna be. We are giving them White, Pom, and McBride.

There better be a stud hitter involved. If not, we got raped. You don't trade your best 2 pitching prospects for a guy that has 6 wins and an era over 4. fucking bull shit....man i'm pissed right now!

Sweet, a .238 BA .301 OBP 62 RBI

.238 BA by the way is below the team average.....

Good play by Kipnis. Maybe that can spark this squad.

We need a fucking W. We made the trade, might as well jump back on the bandwagon for the postseason run!

There can't be a deal if Ubaldo is warming up to start tonight, which they just showed on TV. This makes no sense.

Laporta had a better chance to score on the ball hit to centerfield than he did there.

I'm sorry...I'm having a very hard time with this one. It's not like we're getting a pitcher that's been lights out this year. He's basically sucked.

then again, with the way they have been hitting, the next 2 batters probably strike out.

I agree. But outside Coors, he does have a sub 3 ERA. But yeah, he better be lights out for us.

We saw a glimpse of what White is capable of earlier this year and it was pretty damn good. Pomeranz has dominated this year and has shown every indication that he will be a number 1.
