A...The rumor is a trade with the A's for Dorfdarb. An average bullpen arm. Which is fine by me. Sometime's he's much better than average; he also has injury problems. (Presumably he keeps hurting his fingers as they scrape the pitching mound.)Earlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16528300608952663063noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10243036.post-1121100798821771382005-07-11T12:53:00.000-04:002005-07-11T12:53:00.000-04:00Theo apparently said that he already has a trade w...Theo apparently said that he already has a trade worked out for Payton but that he was waiting until the break to announce it...<BR/><BR/>My guess is that Payton goes back to San Diego (Theo tried to get them to take back Vazquez, so, at the very least, you know they were discussing options)...Maybe Theo is trying to re-acquire Dave Roberts as the speed guy with the team attitude to try to right this clubhouse.<BR/><BR/>It is funny how Francona's allowing the players to be themselves worked so well last year. This year, from the outside, it looks like the patients have taken over the asylum.<BR/><BR/>At least Francona reamed out Damon for his quotes on Schilling.<BR/><BR/>Any other thoughts on who is replacing Payton?GrieveRuleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08852411034145338626noreply@blogger.com
