And the Cubs first move is in:

quote:

The Cubs have acquired Justin Germano from the Red Sox in exchange for cash considerations,


He's headed to St Louis as an emergency starter "in case" Dempster gets moved.

Also, Casey Coleman has been scratched from his AAA start, and will be on stand by in case Germana doesnt make it to STL in time.

It appears the first domino has fallen.

There's no way Lee is the offer from LA.

If Epstein gets Lee for anything the Cubs have to offer, I'll change my official religion to Theo-logy.

No way LA gives him up.

I so badly want the A's to deal Colon and Balfour for a couple of bats. We're competitive a few years earlier than anticipated, and i hope they go for it

The Astros and Blue Jays have completed a ten-player trade, the teams announced.

The Astros send Brandon Lyon, J.A. Happ and David Carpenter to Toronto in the trade.

The Astros send Brandon Lyon, J.A. Happ and David Carpenter to Toronto in the trade.

“Once again we are adding depth to our minor league system with quality young players," GM Jeff Luhnow said in a team press release. "We really feel this will help us moving forward and are extremely excited about the players we’ve added to our organization.”

Cordero and Francisco don't have assurances of staying with the Astros beyond 2012. Cordero, 37, has a 5.77 ERA with 6.8 K/9 and 3.7 BB/9 in 34 1/3 innings this year. He signed a one-year deal with a base salary of $4.5MM before the season. Francisco, 30, earns $1.54MM this year and will be arbitration eligible again this coming offseason. He posted a .240/.296/.380 batting line in Toronto and battled a hamstring injury, so he could be considered a non-tender candidate.

Can someone do some research on the minor leaguers the Astros got in return?

I'm at work and don't have time. Give us a quick run down.

per Baseball Prospectus

quote:

14. Joe Musgrove, RHP: Musgrove, who was taken just 11 picks after Anderson, is a physical beast with plus velocity and an advanced breaking ball.

18. Asher Wojciechowski, RHP: This 2010 supplemental pick lost velocity under a pro workload.

19. Carlos Perez, C: Perez’s full-season debut disappointed, and his lack of physicality is a concern.
