Random Notes (Don't forget to check out my fantasy rankings; below and in the archives section)
MLB
:-: The Orioles had an off day yesterday. They play the Yankees tonight. Bruce Chen starts. Yes I know, be excited. Luckily over the hill Randy Johnson starts for the Yankees.
:-: Javy Lopez is supposedly heading to the Red Sox. However, be weary, remember who owns the O's.
:-: Nick Markakis Watch: .297
:-: Quick Trade Deadline Wrap Up- Soriano wasn't traded to the Angels, Rangers or anyone else as the Nationals feel like they can get him resigned. Since they didn't trade him, they better sign him. The O's did not make any moves. As I predicted Tejada didn't get moved. Not surprising, but it is still hazy what exactly was offered for him. Surprising that the O's didn't move Rodrigo Lopez, LaTroy Hawkins, Jeff Conine, or Kevin Millar. No one was interested in Millar. No one wanted to pick up Conine with his option. Rodrigo got some interest, but the O's most likely balked. The Hawkins situation is confusing, because there had to be some teams interested in him, but I didn't hear much.
NBA
:-: USA basketball won an exhibition game against Puerto Rico last night. The US dominated the game, as they should of. 114-69.
Weather
:-: It is hot out.
