Is Miami actually shopping Stanton or is this all wishful thinking on the part of Red Sox fans?

He's been rumored in trades forever because that's what Miami does, but they're not going to trade him while he's young, cheap, under team control through 2016, and they have a team they're trying to be competitive with. I doubt he's still playing for the Marlins in 2016, though.

Boston has a lot of assets in their farm system, but I think most of their prospects are overrated.

More Stanton chant: he just dingered, making him the first Marlin to reach 50 RBI before June.

I'm glad Stanton is finally healthy enough this year to get back to hitting all of the dingers

No I wouldn't expect a TV broadcast to copy the team's advance scouting report verbatim

I hope we find out that Jeter has a secret twitter account and the only thing he follows is Brazzers and BangBus.

That's not really that dramatic given that Adams is hurt and there is dh play available in four games.

There's also a probably not true rumor of Jon Jay being traded to the Twins

Trade Jon Jay to the Dodgers because the way Vin says "Jon Jay" is really awesome and he busts out Supreme Court Anecdotes.

I support this because then Mattingly will bench Kemp again.

It's the Cardinals, they may well convince NedCo to give them Kemp straight up.

Tedd_Not_Ed: Feb 16, 2014; I've seen games go perfect for 12 innings all for naught. I've seen no-hitters pitched on illicit drugs. Homer streaks lasting eight games and 20 run losses. I've seen pennants won and seasons collapse. All these memories will be lost in time. Like tears in the rain.

Time to die.

In case you missed it, the Red Sox went through four managers tonight
