Orioles hire Showalter

The Baltimore Orioles hired Buck Showalter as there manager. This will be a new rebuilding system for the Orioles as they hope to get better and better by the end of the season. Showalter is a great choice for the Orioles and they will do better when the season ends and it will be a big improvement coming into this and next season for the Orioles.

Oswalt done deal

The Philadelphia Phillies acquired pitcher Roy Oswalt from the Houston Astros for pitcher J.A. Happ and 2 other prospect. This was as expected for the Phillies to acquire the vertan lefty as this deal will help keep the Phillies to be in the race of the NL East. This will help the Phillies pitching staff, who already have Roy Halladay in it and hopefully there offense can put some big numbers now and defiantly when they get back 2B Chase Utley as you can see this was the big move for the Phillies to get him.

Peralta to Tigers

The Cleveland Indians traded 3B Johnny Peralta to the Tigers for minor league pitcher Giovanni Soto. This move will put Peralta to the starting 3B position for the Tigers. This will put more offensive power for this lineup after losing Magglio Ordonez to an injury. This move will help the Tigers be in the very close race of the AL Central.

Podsednik to Dodgers

The Los Angeles Dodgers traded top catcher prospect Lucas May and minor league pitcher Elisual Pimentel to the Kansas City Royals. This is going to add even more depth to this great outfield of the Dodgers had. This was a great deal for the Dodgers who needed another OF to be in for Manny Ramirez. This will help the Dodgers offense more on base stealing and getting on base for the Dodgers. This key additon will help the Dodgers get back in the race of the NL West.

Garza throws NO-NO

Matt Garza threw the Rays first ever no hitter in franchise history as the Rays went and beat the Tigers 5-0. This was a great moment for the Rays to get a no hitter after being no hit 3 times in the past 2 years. I think this was unexpecting to happen and this game helped Garza lower his ERA down a lot now and this was already the 5th no-no this year!

T.O. to Beangals

The Cincinnati Beangals signed WR Terrel Owens to a 1 year 2M dollar contract. This is going to be interesting with Ocho and now T.O. I think the Beangals will miss the playoffs because now that the two of them are 30 and older it is easier to cover them. I think this will be a pretty good WR Duo and T.O. is expected to have a better season with the Beangals since the Bills had a terrible QB case on there roster, the Beangals have a much passing offense with Palmer at QB and the offense will be at it's best again for this upcoming season.

Haren back in California

Is the best move for the Angels? Do they need another great pitcher on there roster? Yes it could be because this move is going to add more pitching depth to there roster. They have Weaver,Santana and now here comes the best guy that was on the market, Dan Haren. I think this will help the Angels pitching staff more and maybe a chance to make the playoffs if they keep up with Josh Hamilton and the Rangers. This is a great move for the Angels even though they need big hiiting help right now, remeber they did get Alberto Callaspo form the Royals. This move will help the Angels to try to make a run for the AL West Divison Title.

Bulluck to Giants

Former Tennessee Titans LB Keith Bulluck was signed to a one year deal to the New York Giants. This was a great signing for the Giants since they lost LB's Danny Clark and Antonio Pierce. The Giants will have a better defense then last years 407 points allowed and this is a great addition for the Ginats cause they needed LB help and got depth from former pro bowler Bulluck.

Johnson hits for cycle, Callaspo to Angles?

How about this, Kelly Johnson just hit for a cycle as he went 4 for 4. It was the 3rd cycle of they year. I think this was great for Johnson who was struggling lately and I think this was a big opportunity for him in the loss to the Giants. Also the Kansas City Royals dealt 2B Alberto Callaspo to the Angles for right hander Sean O'Sullivan and minor leauge left hander Will Smith. This was a good trade since the Royals need pitching help now that Zack Greinke is now on the trade block and the Angels need a little more offense ever since Kendrey Moralas is out for season.

Piniella's last year

Cubs Manager Lou Piniella who is the 4th winningest manager active in MLB history. He said 2010 is his last season. Ryan Sandburg, a former Cub could be the interm manager for the Cubs as he has experienced 4 years in the minors. I think this will be a very good fit for the Cubs and he said that he was ready to go for the job next season. Another manager Fredi Gonzalez will be interviewed by the Cubs and will fight for the spot for the Cubs manger next season. These guys are solid but I was thinking the Cubs might have a shot at Joe Girardi I hope, if he stays with the Yankees too.

NL ends 13 year drought

The National League ended there drought from winning the All Star Game by winning on a 3 RBI double by Brian McCann(he was voted as MVP) to win it 3-1. Also in the HR Derby DH David Ortiz won it by hitting 11 HR's in the Final Round and surprisingly Hanley Ramirez made it to the finals too! Also the Braves aquired Blue Jays SS Alex Gonzalez and 2 prospects for SS Yunell Escobar and RP Jo-Jo Reyes.

LeBron to Miami, Spain wins World Cup

LeBron James made his decision and he will go to Miami. Cleavland traded him for 2 future 1st and 2ND round picks. James will join Wade and Bosch in Miami. They actually planed to do this so they could end up on the same team. I think this team will one of the most dominate team in the league and maybe even make the NBA Finals but need to get guys to step up. Also Spain one there first ever world cup against the Netherlands. The Chicago Bulls signed forward Carlos Boozer to a five year deal worth 80M. I think this will be a great addition for the Bulls and will help there team a lot more. The New York Knicks traded forward David Lee to the Golden State Warriors for forward Anthony Randolph. Also forward Joe Johnson re-signed with the Atlanta Hawks for a 6 year deal and the Celticts re-signed players Ray Allen and Paul Pierce. The Bulls traded Kirk Hinrich to the Washington Wizards and draft pick for draft pick and cash. Also the Suns re-signed forward Channing Fry and Orlando signed guard Chris Duhon to a 4 year deal. Jake Peavy on the White Sox is out for season with an injury. This will be a very tough loss for the White Sox too. Also pitcher Cliff Lee got traded to the Texas Rangers for 1B Justin Smoak and prospects. I think this is a great trade since the Mariners need offense and Rangers need pitching. I think in my opinion now that the Rangers will win the division for good.

Nowitzki stays with Mavs, Bly back in Detriot

The Mavs and Dirk Nowitzki agreed to a 80 million deal. Also CB Dre' Bly is back with the Detroit Lions. He signed a 2 year deal and was a pro bowl conerback with Detroit after the 03 and 04 seasons. This will help the Detroit secondary a lot more with this addition, remember they lost CB's Anthony Henry and Philip Buchanan to free agency this offseason.

Rangers get Molina in trade Jackson suspended 3 games

The Texas Rangers got catcher Bengie Molina from the Texas Rangers and gave the San Fransisco Giants pitcher Chris Ray. Also Chargers WR Vincent Jackson got suspended 2 games for violating the leauge's policy.
