Dayn Perry's chat isn't half bad, which really surprised me :thumbsup1:

http://www.baseballprospectus.com/chat/chat.php?chatId=486

Here's some nuggets:

John (DC): Are my Orioles going to pull the trigger on a trade and keep rebuilding or has their .500 play convinced Angelos that a Wieters-for-Griffey swap is all we need to put us over the top?

Dayn Perry: I think they'll wisely keep rebuilding. Not even Angelos is deluded enough to foul this up. Right?

Mike (Minnesota): Who will be the best out of these three: Jacoby Ellsbury, Carlos Gomez, Adam Jones?

Dayn Perry: Jones. More power.

Mike (Utica,NY): Since your a cardinals fan, would you trade Rasmus for Sabathia or Bedard?

Dayn Perry: Sabathia, yes, Bedard, no.

jlarsen (DRays Bay): Tampa Bay Rays- 46-31, Can you believe it???

Dayn Perry: I'm not shocked that they're a good team, but I am surprised somewhat by the extent of their success. They're a thoroughly enjoyable team to watch, and I'm pulling for them in the AL. The AL East badly needed an interloper, and now they have it. Tampa's turned into a first-rate organization.

jschmeagol (weifang, china): Hey Dayn, enjoy the Mockbuster series. Are there any that would make sense for the Yankees (going either way of course)?

Dayn Perry: I think the problem for the Yankees is that their main bargaining chips (Hughes, Tabata, Kennedy) are on the low end of their value at the moment. That makes it difficult to, a, deal for a big-name guy and, b, get a fair deal. I think Teixeira would be a great fit for the Yankees (seriously, Giambi needs to DH in the worst way), but they don't have enough upward-trending (or at least stabilized) young talent to get it done.

RahulN (GA): If the Braves aren't close at the deadline, what about Teixeira for Kemp/Loney and someone like Elbert? I know Tex is only controlled for the rest of this year but if Coletti is really desperate for offense you never know what he might do..

Dayn Perry: I can't imagine that the Dodgers would do that, but that assumes Colletti is aware that Loney and Kemp aren't the problem.
