It's Day Four of the Winter Meetings, currently taking place in San Diego this year. The Yankees were mostly quiet yesterday. Everyone was still buzzing about the Cubs signing Jon Lester. Then the Dodgers came in like a boss. They traded Dee Gordon and Dan Haren to the Marlins for four young players. Then they traded one of those young players, Andrew Heaney, to the Angels for Howie Kendrick. They also traded for Jimmy Rollins, signed Brandon McCarthy to the exact four year, $48 million dollar deal he wanted, and as of 4:30AM are on the verge of trading Matt Kemp to the Padres. Rumor has it they are trying to trade the moon for the sun next.
Comments of the Day
We're still reeling over the sting of losing David Robertson.
This will make more sense once you get to the HMM section
Rob Refsnyder has jokes!
Siiiiiiiiiiiiiiigh.
Sources confirm: 2015 will be better than 2014.
I MARVEL'd at this post. 'Nuff said.
Romo money Romo problems
LTL thinks Carlos Beltran is going to get injured. It might be a safe bet.
Or.... FIER CAHSMAN, AMIRITE?
Cashman's got jokes
"If the mole were here..."
It was around this time we learned that the Dodgers signed Brandon McCarthy. Sigh.
I like the way Tanya thinks!
Jon Lester's got jokes. It's nice to be able to continue liking him.
What is a yout?
GIF of the Day
Miss you, D-Rob.
Honorable Mod Mention
We have two HMM awards today.
Matt Freedom reminds us, via embed tweet, that Jimmy Rollins had jokes during the '09 World Series. Oh wait, he was serious?
Andrew shows us that D-Rob loves us, even on his way out. Farewell, David Robertson. Best of luck in Chicago.
- Winter Meetings: Sooooooo...how about those Dodgers?
- What are Brian Cashman's top priorities now?
I figured this would be appropriate with David Robertson and Brandon McCarthy now gone. As always, please link us your Song of the Day.
Please use this as your Open Thread for discussing the Winter Meetings. What are you hoping to see from the Yankees today now that Brandon McCarthy is heading to LA? What are your thoughts on Wade Miley in Fenway Park? Is Max Scherzer signed before the Winter Meetings come to an end?
Someday, love will find you!
