Hot Stove heating up and whatnot....


Some pretty crazy trade talks going on right now about the futures of some big name Rockies players...
Holliday, Atkins, Willie T. among others.

Holliday with supposed major interest from Philly, Oakland (!?! I thought they only got rid of good high-priced players) and St. Louis.

Atkins has pursuers in Minny and Cleveland. Chisox looking at Taveras.

It's a shame that it looks like there is no way that the current Rockies team will enter spring with the roster as it stands now.

I have no faith in O'Dowd doing the right thing with either Holliday or Atkins. Would love to be proven wrong but I can sense a 1st degree burn coming...

DT you must be loving the rumored possibility of Ass-Felt returning...

Every tid bit of Rockies news these days fall firmly in the depressing department. The only somewhat tantalizing rumor is getting the Flying Hawiann and top AAA pitchng prospect from Philly in return for Matty.

You suck O'Dowd.

All of that said, I'm licking my blogging chops at the prospect of bringing Assfelt back.

uggh. see ya holliday. i'm sure going to Oakland for a year wasn't what you had in mind when you were chatting with Boras the Devil this offseason.

being an A's fan, it would be cool if Matty tore it up in the AL...though something tells me that a right-handed slugger who has far better numbers at Coors, is going to make up that 24 or so odd games behind the Halos they were last year.

oh, and you suck O'Dowd. but that's a given.
