2010 MLB Trade Deadline

How about the finish to the 2010 MLB Trade Deadline. There were so many moves to turn into key additions for some and major help and big improvements for teams. The Texas Rangers who are going to position themselves into a big playoff run acquiring Cliff Lee and Bengie Molina already they added more and picked up SS Cristian Guzman and 3B Jorge Cantu. These moves just made the Rangers a better built team and good for a playoff run too. Also the defending World Series Yankees acquired 1B Lance Berkman, OF Austin Kearns and pitcher Kerry Wood. This will also put the Yankees in a position where they could go to the World Series again and help them make a better team too. The Rays responded to by getting pitcher Chad Qualls from the Diamondbacks and this will make there pitching even deeper and better and the Red Sox acquired catcher Jarrod Salatalamacchia from the Rangers as they will probably put Martinez at 1B and Jarrod at catcher position and make them a better team. The White Sox pitching just got better as they traded for Edwin Jackson, a guy who could help the White Sox stay in 1st place and hopefully make a playoff run too. The Twins added Matt Capps to there improved pitching staff and a bullpen who already has Jon Rauch. The Braves acquired OF Rick Ankiel and Kyle Farnsworth to boost up more depth for there team and the Phillies made a great move getting pitcher Roy Oswalt as the Phillies who already have a rotation in with Cole Hamels and Roy Halladay just add in another great arm as this will boost there pitching staff a ton and make a run for 1st place. The Cardinals boosted there pitching staff more by acquiring Jake Westbrook as the add a rotation who already has Jamie Garcia,Adam Wainwright and Chris Carpenter and will boost the Cardinals too win the division and maybe even a run for the world series. The Padres boosted up there batting by adding Miguel Tejada and Ryan Ludwick to there roster as they could make a run in the playoffs and maybe a berth as NL champions. This was a very great and fun trade deadline and also the cubs aquired in Blake DeWitt and the Dodgers added more to there pitching staff with Ted Lilly and added Ryan Theriot form the Cubs as they could catch up in the west to the Padres.
