I like Almanzar.

I need a media guide to follow this team!

Assuming Kelly Johnson gets playing time in September, he will have played with all 5 AL East teams since 2012. 3 in the last month. Crazy.

Wonder if Almanzar goes on the 40 man roster this winter?

The team never seemed interested in Weeks. Will be interesting to see if DeJesus is called up to Boston, if not he is acquired for about a week of games.

Wow Dan's quick.

We win!

There goes the two open 40 man spots. Wonder if the team still adds Saunders/Berry now.

EDIT: Still one open spot with Weeks traded.
