Eli's MLB Rumors:
After learning that shortstop Everth Cabrera has a broken hand, the Padres reacquired Chris Burke from the Seattle Mariners for a player to be named later. The Padres traded Chris Burke to the Mariners just three weeks ago, and is hitting just .237 in 38 at-bats with the Mariners Triple-A team. The Padres acquired Cabrera through the Rule 5 draft from the Rockies, and traded Burke after deciding that Cabrera had earned a spot on the 25-man roster.
Burke probably won't have much impact on the Padres.

Today we re-acquired INF Chris Burke from the Seattle Mariners for cash considerations.When we signed Chris over the winter, we thought he had a legitimate chance to contribute to the big league club, especially because we believed that he had been better than his numbers indicated in 2007 and 2008. Chris then came to camp and had a solid spring training, but we had signed David...

The Apple Cup: Well, I guess I won’t be grading the Apple Cup but rather the plan to move the Apple Cup to Qwest Field. Kevin wrote this post arguing why it should not be moved to Qwest. And he made several good points.
But in the end, Kevin overlooks the most important reason of all: money. In our depressed economy, moving the game to Qwest is a far more favorable option than...

Apparently, I can still post here!I'll post this quick, before Paul notices....The Rainiers season (and their current homestand) began a while ago, and STILL you lack a decent preview. I apologize, morsel readers.In my defense, I was going to use Chris Jakubauskas as the focal point of it, but he went and got himself a job in the M's starting rotation. To think it was...
