[Birds08]

This could really set things up nicely for us.

"The Chicago White Sox are making a strong push to acquire Marlins third baseman Miguel Cabrera, industry sources said late this afternoon.

The hallways at the winter meetings were buzzing that the White Sox are close to making “a major announcement,” and team sources confirmed it has to do with Cabrera. "

Well now this from Rotoworld. Regardless, looks like he's headed to the Central. Hopefully LAA makes a push for Miggy now.

"MLB.com is reporting that the Tigers are set to acquire Miguel Cabrera and Dontrelle Willis from the Marlins for Cameron Maybin, Andrew Miller and four more prospects."

I really want to see this happen. If Cabrera and Santana can both be dealt tonight, then Bedard and Tejada will soon be saying their byes.

Yes - if Cabrera goes to the White Sox and Santana goes to the Red Sox, then the market for Bedard and Tejada should shape up quickly thereafter.

I think that we're going to see a huge deal from someone for Bedard. I wouldn't be shocked at all to see a 5 player deal with better players than the Sox are offering for Santana.

The Tigers and Marlins are hammering out the final details on an eight-player trade that would send third baseman Miguel Cabrera and left-handed starter Dontrelle Willis to Detroit for a left-hander Andrew Miller, outfielder Cameron Maybin and four other prospects.

I dont really believe there would be 6 prospects involved but wow, talk about conflicting reports.

He is definitely going to be somewhere tonight.

ESPN is reporting that Willis and Cabrera are going to Detroit most likely by tonight.

That is a huge deal they swept right in and got him......

Just saw it confirmed on Espn as well.

FAN is reporting it as done as well. Great for the O's. Miggy to the Angels any one?

Is it me or is this offseason just nuts already?

Mods, can't figure out how to change the heading, so may make sense to delete this thread.

I feel like SG, I have 100 posts on the Dodgers site already!

As my old roomate used to say, "close only counts in horseshoes, handgrenades and aids."

I won't believe anything until the ink is dry.

You would think that the Angels missing out on cabrera is good news for the O's but it makes you think why the deal didn't get done? Are the angels being that greedy about giving up their prospects?
