SF Chron is reporting A's are sending Fautino De Los Santos to Milwaukee in return for their backup catcher. FDLS was considered the primary prospect in the deal that sent Swisher to Chicago in 2007.

Way to get my hopes way up and then destroy them. Still hope we can move him for a bag of balls.

The Padres can make a decent reliever out of anyone, so the Street deal seems like a waste.

My source was Twitter. I saw that he got traded to the O's, so I posted it. I then went to do something and the deal was reported that it was off. Then I came here and you said it.

A simple click of that tweet would have shown it was a hoax. Unacceptable

Sorry. It was a mistake. Not a big deal. Who cares anyways. I saw it a few times on my feed. Thought it was legit. Found out it wasn't. It happens.

Eduardo Escobar is pretty much useless and a bench guy more than likely, and Pedro Hernandez is a mediocre lefty who might be a LOOGY or something. Honestly, you really got nothing.

Escobar was the White Sox's 4th best prospect at the beginning of the season and he's only 23. He'll never be anything more than a passable hitter from the middle infielder positions, but his defense is solid.
Anyway, Liriano sucks, and he was leaving anyway, so whatever.

The Pirates are going to lose, the Steelers are going to get a 3rd for Mike Wallace, Big Ben is going to rape a man, and today will end up the worst day of your life.

Eh, not really. And the White Sox have a godawful system as is, so that hardly matters.
