Trade Talks
The trading deadline is coming up and there’s plenty of talk about wh is going and who is staying. I’ve heard rumours that Starlin Castro is going, Ryan Dempster and Soriano.
I highly doubt Starlin Castro is going anywhere. He’s the next face of the franchise and rightfully so. Although he’s undesciplined at times, he’s very consistent.
Ryan Dempster I think will head to Toronto. Kyle Drabek is on the shelf so the Blue Birds are looking for that quality pitcher. The fact that he’s Canadian helps too.
Alfonso Soriano is having a banner season and of course it’s coming a little too late. He’ll be traded to the American league.
Last night, the Cubs were shut out and finally, we can get back to some National League play.

I wouldn’t mind seein Dempster in a Tigers uniform, though I’m sure the price will be pretty high. Soriano wouldn’t be a bad pick-up either, but Detroit has plenty of outfielders, unless he can go back to playing second base.
