Odds & Ends: Moore, Schmidt, Atkins
On this date back in 2003, Johnny Damon hit a single, a double, and a triple in a 14-run first inning against the Marlins. The Red Sox set a league record by scoring ten runs before making an out.
On to the linkage...
- Matthew Pouliot of Circling The Bases says that Dayton Moore's moves over the last season and a half are enough to warrant his dismissal. He notes they have a more than qualified replacement already in-house in senior advisor Mike Arbuckle.
- Ben Bolch of The LA Times notes that Jason Schmidt threw 104 pitches over 7.2 shutout in a rehab start yesterday. We know the Dodgers are looking for pitching, but a healthy and reasonably effective Schmidt could lessen that urgency.
- Tracy Ringolsby writes that Garrett Atkins' recent hot streak creates "more of a possibility of another team having interest in acquiring him." Atkins is hitting .340-.415-.553 in June.
- The Rangers have been getting good production from unexpected sources like Jason Jennings, says Ken Sherrington of The Dallas Morning News.
- Rockies outfielder Carlos Gonzalez says he's happy to be in Colorado, according to Susan Slusser of The SF Chronicle.
- Joe Cowley tweets this Ozzie Guillen quote: "The people that run baseball teams now are soft." I wonder what Kenny Williams thinks about that.
- Marc Carig writes that the Rockies had begun combing through the Yankees' farm system in advance of a potential Huston Street trade back in May.

Jason who?
We've been waiting for him longer than Godot.

Street for McAllister and Montero....or enjoy the wild card race
Posted by: theJonathan | June 27, 2009 at 02:00 PM
Bahaha Montero for Street...cute.
Posted by: thegamev1 | June 27, 2009 at 03:05 PM
Montero? Lol, he is one of the best hitting prospects in baseball.
Posted by: B3NG4L | June 27, 2009 at 03:35 PM
Not sure who you were talking to, but I was laughing at the thought of trading him for Street. I would write a personal hate letter to Brian Cashman if that happened.
Posted by: thegamev1 | June 27, 2009 at 03:50 PM
Dayton, do you have any room for a slack-jawed, booger eating moron like me? I seem to have worn out my welcome in Atlanta and need a new stall to call home.
Senilithy and incontenence are my calling card. I would immediately want to trade Greinke for Corky Miller and the ghost of Keith Lockhart.
Posted by: Nosepicker Eeyore Cox | June 27, 2009 at 05:05 PM
I call BS on this. There is no way Jason Schmidt is alive let alone threw 7.2 innings or 104 pitches. You guys need to check your source.

Not 100% here, but I'm sure the Ozzie quote was more a positive statement made in the direction of Lou Pinella as opposed to criticizing GMs or owners. If anything, other managers might be able to take offense. Must be a slow week if this is the Ozzie quote that people are hoping will become something to write about.
