Catching Up on Transactions

by Geoff Young on December 11th, 2007

While we’re waiting for Kosuke Fukudome to decide what he wants to do with his life, we may as well catch up on some recent transactions, haiku style:

Nats and Yankees trade –
Clippard, Albaladejo,
anonymous arms

Cincy trades Buck Coats
to Blue Jays for Justin James –
who are these people?

Cards drop Taguchi –
they are So over that guy,
you wouldn’t believe

Padres sell Terrmel
to Japan’s Pacific League,
where he will fight ham

(Yes, I know, but don’t ruin the joke.)

Brewers sign Riske
to a big three-year contract –
seems kind of risky

(Ugh, they’re getting worse.)

Cincy waives Cantu –
I sure can understand why
they did that, can’t you?

(Seriously, this is terrible.)

Nationals sign Boone –
Aaron, the old third baseman,
is still in the league!

Bucs drop Castillo –
if Pittsburgh releases you,
try a new career

Cleveland gets Carroll
from Colorado Rockies –
I’m out of bad puns

Nats sign LoDuca –
he was real good in ‘01,
as was Kevin Brown

Pads sign Randy Wolf
to incentive-laden deal –
good for 15 starts?

Brewers sign Gagne –
now that he’s in Milwaukee,
are they beer goggles?
