From what I hear the Giants do not have enough to get him. But it could happen since they got more for Victorino from the Dodgers than expected. Now the Phils got more from the Dodgers they may accept less from the Giants.

Pence is now a Giant. The Giants can thank the Dodgers for this. If the Dodgers did not give up their top prospect, Philly would have wanted more for Pence than the Giants could give.
There were rumblings yesterday that the Reds and Red Sox were discussing Jacoby Ellsbury. I doubt very much this will happen but if it does, IMO, the Reds would become NL favorites.
Good!! I wanted no part of him. Sure, he would be an upgrade, but he's having a solid year (mediocre otherwise) in what is a decided seller's market for starting pitching. IMO, fool's gold.
Give the Dodgers credit, there going for it. Ramy, MLB Network had a graphic about the Reds and they were last in something. I missed what it was. I think for lead off hits or something. Sorry, I cant describe to you what it was. The graphic was up because they were discussing getting a leadoff hitter.
As far as the Mets go, very, very dissapointed that they didnt try for a trade or something. I mean, 2 wks. ago, the Mets were right in the thick of things. They desperately needed/need bullpen help and have gotten nothing. There bullpen is a main reason why the Mets are lousy now. They are ALL terrible. Bastista (who was traded to the Braves, thank God), Parnell, Acosta, Rouch etc. Get rid of all of them.

I can see your point but you can never have too much pitching. I wouldnt mind if Dempster went to the Mets. You never know what your going to get, for the rest of the year or the playoffs. Its a gamble.
Saw on Twitter that the Marlins are close to sending Gaby Sanchez to Pirates for OF Gorkys Hernandez and a competitive-balance pick.
Sure wish the Rangers would acquire a big name to help bolster their bullpin or starting pitching....
You mean the Rangers sneak in and come out of nowhere to steal Dempster from the Dodgers and Yankees
We're giving up two Class-A players for this guy. I sure hope it doesn't turn out to be another bust like we had with rent a player Cliff Lee two years ago....
It will be. Dempster will NOT resign with the Rangers. He made it clear he only wants to play for the Dodgers.
He is better now than early. His win and loss record is due to playing for one of the worst teams over the last few years. His high ERA is also due to playing with bad teams and in a hitter friendly park.
With Texas he will be better because Texas will score more than enough runs for him to win and this will take a lot of pressure off him as well. More than enough to make up for the better offensive AL teams he will be facing.
