The Trade Rumor Winds Are A Blowin'
From the S.I. Advance:
A person who spoke to Cashman recently confirmed Cashman is pursuing a significant deal.
"It sounded like he was close on some stuff," the person said. "He's working it."
Preston Wilson? Barry Zito? Jacque Jones? Mark Redman? Roger Clemens? Brian Giles? Jose Mesa? J.T. Snow? Bob Wickman? Ken Griffey Jr.? Aubrey Huff? Adam Dunn? Mike Sweeney? Lyle Overbay? Eric Byrnes? Guillermo Mota? Wily Mo Pena? SpongeBob SquarePants?
I just have a feeling that, this trade, if it happens, is going to be like the Justice Deal of 2000. It will be something that none of us saw coming.
Let's hope it helps as much as the Justice trade did back then.

Steve- lets be honest...from one Islander to another....when was the last time the Staten Island Advance was awarded for their keen investigative reporting?

Hey, I'm a former!
Well, I think it's a wire story too, FWIW.

Wasn't Womack rumored to be going to the Padres?

Steve- Once an islander...ALWAYS an Islander.
don't deny your roots....is Rottenville in the house?

Padres deal has reportedly fallen by the wayside. SD doesn't think womack is worth it for the short time he'll be subbing for Loretta.
Methinks there will be no significant trade by the Yankees. This is the team we'll have down the stretch. Would be nice to pickup a reliable middle reliever though.
