No News is News

There's nothing to report on the trade front at the moment but if you're like me, you're still checking every hour on the hour. Maybe all the GMs are enjoying a quiet day at home with their families before gearing up for the next 48 hours. (yeah, right) The Dbacks seem to be tentatively entering the Teixeira sweepstakes, but the Braves still appear to have the edge. The Chicago press seems certain that Jermaine Dye is heading to Boston, although that deal seemed closer to fruition a couple days ago than it does today. The Yankees are denying that Johnny Damon is available but they aren't denying an interest in Rangers reliever Eric Gagne. They're not alone as the Mets and Red Sox are interested in him too. I'll try to stay on top of things through the evening but things are awfully quiet at the moment.
