But I was hoping that he would be closing for whichever team signed him.

My guess would be that Astros decide to waste some big cash and go after Soriano to close.

Astros traded Marlins for Lindstrom who will probably be their closer. Lindstrom throws heat (mid to upper 90's) and but with little movement according to ESPN's Law.

Lindstrom = Kyle Farnseworth with injury issues.

So, the Rays pretty much traded Iwamura for Soriano? Not too shabby.

Mets make a 4 year $65 MM offer for Jason Bay after Boston makes a 4 year $60 MM offer.

Hopefully, Bay leaves Boston and the Red Sox set their sights on Holliday removing him from St Louis.

Rumored Blockbuster of Phillies receiving Halladay with Mariners as third team (receiving Lee, presumably).

ESPN reporting Halladay to Phillies, Lee to Marniers, prospects to Blue Jays.

Fucking hell. I hate being a Cubs fan.

That's pretty huge. Wonder who the prospects are...
