I bet that the Callaspo trade ensures that Moose gets a cup o' coffee in September, and he'll definitely be the starter on Opening Day in '11.

Would have rather traded Aviles instead of Callaspo. Aviles is a fluke, Callaspo isn't. Don't know much about these pitchers, maybe somebody can shed some light on it. At first glance, I don't really like it but when you have Moose coming up at 3B you need to get something. Figured Callaspo could end up being a good utility guy though.

What a waste of a trade. You're saying you can't get better than this bum?

Angel fan seems pissed to lose Sean. Had nice start against the Yanks

He did great his first year or so in the low minors, but the Angels strapped him (just age 21, I think) into a rocket ship and he sailed past Adv. A and AA all the way to AAA in less than a season, where he got shelled in a very hitter-friendly league (Pacific Coast League). Maybe he'll turn out to suck, but the Angels did him no favors.

edit: holy God, another left-handed pitcher? Just noticed that, Hah, ok throw him into the pile.

Callaspo being in a utility role is quite frightening cant imagen his Defense being any worse at other positions

Mark Cuban is apparently in negotiations with David Glass. He is reportedly offering $375,000,000 for the club. It is rumored that Sprint will be a minor shareholder and the Mavs will come with him to KC.

At least we know he would try


We get our MLB version of Dan Snyder

He can play third okay, but seems to suck at 2b. Still, he would be much more valuable in situational batting being he's a switch hitter as non-everyday player that you can plug in there when the time is right.

They're basically the same guy, other than I believe Aviles is under control for longer for no money.

I would splooge on my screen if this was true

Mark Cuban needs something to do in the summer. KC has shown they will embrace a sports team if they are good. Somebody needs to try to sell this to Cuban lol

I'm telling you, Aviles will be a career .268 or something hitter IMO. Callaspo will be a better hitter in his career, mark my words. They both suck at defense so what else is new. But I see your point.
