Who comes up with these trade rumors?
I stumbled across mlb-trade-rumors.com's page of rumors sent in by readers this morning. Who comes up with this stuff? A-Rod to Boston for Ortiz and Manny? Puh-leez! Then there's:
June 29: Red Sox send Matt Clement and reliever Craig Hansen to the Orioles for Miguel Tejada. — VERY RELIABLE SOURCE!!! TRADE COULD HAPPEN VERY SOON.
How about this one:
June 27: Braves Trade CF Andruw Jones to Devil Rays for CF Joey Gathright
Umm, Gathright was traded to the Royals on June 20.
These funny Toronto rumors also caught my eye:
June 22: Alfonso Soriano wants out of Washington and Toronto needs a second baseman how about Russ Adams, Shea Hillenbrand and Frank Catalanotto for Soriano.
June 21: David Wells to Toronto for Greg Zahn.
That's enough nonsense for today!
