Piece of Meat

I'm just not sure of what I think of the trade of Scotty Hairston to the A's for 2 minor league pitchers and a player to be named later, supposedly another pitcher...it came 1 hour after the OT loss to the Dodgers yesterday...he was our leading hitter after AGonzo and leaves us with no coverage of the big lefty....it leaves us with Kooz (OMG!) or Headley...

Which brings me to the issue of the day...trading players like they are pieces of meat...if you, as a player, don't have a trade clause in your contract, you have to accept whatever the GM's of the MLB world do to you...most of the teams in the league trade players so frequently it is rare to see the same players on YOUR team for longer than 2 or 3 years...the Padres GM is not a favorite of mine as you know...

Are you bewildered by the White House's reaction to their diplomacy of Iran?

Tiger wins in DC...he is soooo good...

I'm not a tennis fan, but the Wimbledon matches seemed kinda cool...

The MLB All-Star teams were announced and the Pad's HBell and Agonzo were named...nice

Power-boated the Bay yesterday....

Enjoy the sun...
