Trade Deadline Updates, Open Thread

PrintUPDATE: 4:43 EST: The Red Sox got a second deal done just before the deadline. Ken Rosenthal is reporting Jarrod Saltalamacchia is now a member of the Sox.
UPDATE: 4:40 EST: Chan Ho Park has been designated for assignment to make room for Kerry Wood, according to Pete Caldera.
UPDATE: 4:34 EST: Here is the Yankees lineup for tonight's game, which was first reported by Ben Shpigel: 1. Jeter, 2. Berkman (dh), 3. Teixeira, 4. Rodriguez, 5. Cano, 6. Swisher, 7. Granderson, 8. Cervelli, 9. Gardner
UPDATE 4:23 EST by jscape: Berkman was just on MLB Network, and he said he'll be hitting second tonight. Jeter-Berkman-Tex-Arod-Cano-Swisher-Granderson-Posada-Gardner looks nice against RHP.
UPDATE: 4:14 EST: Yankees favorite Kyle Farnsworth has been traded along with Rick Ankiel to the Braves, according to Danny Knobler. The Red Sox didn't stay completely pat, they traded Ramon Ramirez to the Giants, reports Gordon Edes.
UPDATE: 3:46 EST: PTBNL or cash for Wood. Quick analysis: Wood's numbers look worse than they should. Has a high walk rate (5/9 ip), but not totally out of whack with his norms (4.3/9), but a ridiculously high hit rate (9.5/9), but seems to be suffering from bad luck. Still a good K rate (8.1/9), and a very low LD rate (15%) with a somewhat high .319 BABIP and rather good GB rate (43%, higher than his career norm). He should be due for some regression (in a good way). His stuff is still there: averaging 95 MPH on his fastball.
UPDATE: 3:42 EST: White CC and Juan Miranda are taken off the 25 man roster to make room for Berkman and Kearns, according to Ben Shipgel.
UPDATE: 3:31 EST: Olney has more: the Indians will be eating a lot of Wood's contract. Joel Sherman tweets that the deal is done, pending approval. Wood has about $3.8 million left on this years contract and an $11 million club option for next season, tweets Sherman. Wood is 1-4 with a 6.30 ERA on the season. Wood has 8 saves, 18 strikeouts, and 11 walks on the season. 21 hits allowed in 20 innings for the hard throwing righty, who has appeared in 23 games.
UPDATE 3:23 EST by Travis: Yanks close to getting Kerry Wood, according to Buster Olney.
UPDATE: 2:15 EST: The Red Sox rumors have picked up. Ken Rosenthal has the names of relievers that the Sox are interested in, while Gordon Edes has the names of relievers that the Sox want to trade. Meanwhile, the Dodgers and Cubs have agreed on a deal that sends Ted Lilly and Ryan Theriot to the Dodgers for Blake DeWitt and prospects. Many outlets have reported this. Joel Sherman reports that the Yankees are targeting a utility infielder. Adam Dunn is in the Nationals lineup for tonights game.
UPDATE: 1:34 EST: The Berkman deal is now official, so the Yankees can't be Lee'd by the Astros! Here's the press release for Berkman, and here's the release for Kearns. When we find out who's been demoted, I'll update it.
UPDATE: 1:04 EST by jscape: I'm keeping Brandon's Open Thread at the top of the page, but be sure to take a look at my work on Lance Berkman at Yankee Stadium.
UPDATE: 12:38 EST: Jayson Stark reports that the Cubs and Dodgers are close to a deal that would send Ted Lilly and Ryan Theriot to the Dodgers. Meanwhile, the Ludwick to Padres, Westbrook to Cardinals deal is done according to Bob Nightengale.
UPDATE: 12:30 EST: Jon Heyman says that the Giants are in "serious talks" for either Scott Downs or Jason Frasor. Meanwhile, the market for Manny Ramirez is heating up, Tim Brown of Yahoo tweets.
UPDATE: 11:58 EST: Tom Krasovic reports the Westbrook to Cardinals deal is a three team trade that would send Ryan Ludwick to the Padres.
UPDATE: 11:36 EST: Missed this one yesterday, the Yankees can activate Lance Berkman at 1:30 PM EST, according to Joel Sherman. The Rays acquired Chad Qualls for a player to be named later according to Jon Heyman. The Cardinals are close to a deal for Jake Westbrook, tweets Paul Hoynes.
This will be your open thread for the trade deadline today. Also, I will update this from now until 5:00ish EST with any trades or moves that affect the Yankees. After that you might get an hour of no updates, but then the game thread will go up at the usual time for a 7:00 game.
While I will be updating this frequently, if you want up to the minute news, check out MLB Daily Dish (where I'm an editor!) and the Yankees rumors page at SB Nation New York (where Ed runs the show!)

IDK
Have not seen much of him since then, but I have heard a few analysts mention he would be better served staying in the N.L.
Since the face been revealed the game got real
probably
he doesn’t throw all that hard and likes to use the fastball a lot, so that usually means they won’t do well.
I dunno, I think he’s a vet and knows what he’s doing so he’d be a find and effective.

I like the Westbrook trade
for all teams, Westbrook stabilizes the back end of the cards rotation and Ludwick gives the Padres a bat, even though Ludwick is one of the worst base runners I’ve ever seen every time I watch the cards he makes a terrible mistake. Not sure the prospects going to Cleveland but any little bit will help them rebuild.
Back after a week away
There’s been quite a flurry of activity over the past week, I do like the Berkman move since they’re getting him for cheap. Same with Kearns, he seems like a good bench guy.
Did you know Joe Morgan thinks Cano will win a batting title one day?
Just your opinion

Getting old
What nonsense that the Yankees are pulling out their wallets.
Did we get the most sought after player – NO NOT even close.
Lee – Texas
There will be over 15 players moving and we are just one of 8 teams thinking playoff run.
The Berkman deal was minimal money and the Old Yankees late 80’s would have paid more for Berkman. The Kearns deal cost peanuts. Or One night of Hotdogs at the stadium.
Phillies in 2.5 years acquired Lee, Halladay and Oswalt.
The Angels went for D Lee and every year make moves.
Its great to be in Pinstripes
You realize that the Yankess will likely get Lee at FA time this year
Oswalt was way to expensive and we really don’t need him. Berkman was a great deal. We only pay 3 million and give up Nova and the other guy Paradies (spelling). And really the Philles? They gave up half their farm system for all three and Lee isn’t even on the team. Halladay is fantastic but the Phils can’t score runs when he starts. And Lee declined the trade to ANA and the Angels season is likely over.
And yes it is great to be in pinstripes!

Upgrade Pen
Hughes will do that automatically. Yes they can add a lefty RP – but no major deal.
I believe I heard that the way the TV deals are worked out this year the Yanks can use a 3 man rotation throughout the playoffs and actually give guys 4-5 days rest.
If thats the case J Vasquez and Hughes will be live arms in the Pen

Getting Old
I was not joking – What I’m saying is there are plenty of teams making deals and not just the Yanks. Yes the Yanks have the highest payroll and we all know that and that is not going to change especially since MLB is overall in a healthy state. I truly believe the Pirates are worse for baseball when discussing the business of baseball.
Finally, what I’m say is the writers like Rosenthal need to get more interesting and write about something new. Blah Blah Blah -
Well what are they going to write about?
Its the trade deadline. Write about spring training for the Mets next season?

Kearns will bat against LH pitchers. You can sit Granderson if you must and play Kearns with no worries about defense, Gardner in CF.

Howard should probably be earning Burnett money
Burnett should be earning Andy money. Maybe.
Did you know Joe Morgan thinks Cano will win a batting title one day?
he is their franchise player
and while you can point to his deficiencies, the guy produces at a level with the best players in baseball.

I doubt he’s batting fourth. A-Rod will be in there.

Sometimes a change of scenery is all a player needs. I’ve always been a huge fan of Kerry Wood. Great stuff. If he doesn’t turn it around or gets hurt again, well then, they wouldn’t have given anything up.

He's only pitched 20 innings this season
I think you guys should all take a deep breath and see what kind of sample size he gets with the Yankees.
that's true.
I guess we’re just gonna have to cope with the idea that we got Wood, and deal with it.

But seriously, they got him for nothing so sure why not. If he sucks, just DFA him. He can’t be any worse than CHOP.

I'm a pretty big Kerry Wood fan
I have been since his 20 strikeout game back in 1998. I’d hoped that the Cubs would hold onto Wood after the 2008 season, but we’ve really been watching Carlos Marmol come into his own this season as the closer. Say what you want about Woody, but he’s a gamer and going to a contender should re-energize him.
RIP Ronnie James Dio (July 10, 1942 - May 16, 2010).
Re-energized Wood can do nothing but help the Yanks

They’re not giving up anything at all. If he’s bad, DFA him. If he’s good, well, then he’d really help.

It also helps that he was teammates with Girardi
I’m sure Joe put in a good word for Kerry. Kerry’s a real team player, but whether or not he’ll be effective is another story.

That’s what he said on MLBN.
It makes some sense to me, though I like Swish there. I think Swish has a little more power at this point, so it makes sense to move Nick down in the lineup.

As the main "Chan Ho Park Hater" of this site I would just like to tell all of you...
I told you so! None of you agree with me when back in spring training I said that not only would Park be nothin more than a mop-up man but would also be off the team before the end of July. In my opipiom this was the best move we made at the deadline. We could have just released him, not made any trade and I would have been more than satisfied. I am so glad that the embarassment of the franchise is finally gone and he won’t be missed at all. He was our version of Oliver Perez and the only difference was that Park was being payed much less. The diarrhea video was the only thing Park did this year that was anything close to productive.
The last thing at have to say about Park is that I guarantee that Thursdays embarassing performance is the last time we will ever see Chan Ho Park pitch in the majors. Maybe someone will give him a shot in Triple-A but no team in the majors would be smart in wasting a spot on the 25 or even 40 man rosters on Chan Ho Park. Thanks for the diarrhea Park but don’t let the door hit you in the ass on the way out.
I agree 100%
your opinion is now mine!
