Baseball. Blogging. Whenever.Wednesday, January 28, 2009Heilman to the Mariners and then the CubsThe offseason does crazy things to people. Hope springs eternal and that's great and all, but there's a fine line between hope and delusion. Example: last summer the Mets probably couldn't have paid anyone to take Aaron Heilman off their hands, yet this winter, not one, but two teams have traded for him.This isn't just a Heilman thing. It happens a lot. Some Joe Palooka is almost run out of town on a rail in August, and the next winter some GM thinks, "ya know, if I can get a Palooka and somehow sign a couple of live arms, we might just be able to do something." Of course no one has ever explained to me what a "live arm" is. Regression to the mean notwithstanding, I don't know why such thinking prevails every year. Whatever the case, thinking that someone looks better through the hazy shade of winter is close enough to a similar phenomenon that I'm going to dub it "snow goggling."

And the thought that the M’s would move Lopez to first to accommodate Cedeno is a nightmare. As an A’s fan, they’ve made me very happy knowing there is a soft landing if Beane’s maneuverings don’t work out. The worst we can finish is 3rd in the division. Posted 01/28 at 07:06 PM

Maybe this season, but Jack Z seems like a guy on the cutting edge of the game. The Mariners look like they will be turning their ship around in the near future. Posted 01/28 at 07:47 PM

I’m frankly surprised the Orioles didn’t end up with Ronny Cedeno considering they desperately need a shortstop. There have been so many Roberts to Cubs rumors that a Roberts for Pie, Cedeno, and another player would have made some sense earlier this off season. Oh well.
