Breaking News!!
Huge news today in the world of baseball as moments ago the two teams championed by RSBS, the red-jacketed Cardinals and the blue-hatted Tigers announced a blockbuster trade.
The incidental aspects move around several minor leaguers and role-players but the entirely unexpected part includes the swapping of the two teams’ first basemen: Albert Pujols and Miguel Cabrera. Obviously we will have much more to say about this but you can get a general idea of our initial sentiments here.

I guess Albert Pujols wants to see if he can hit a blast into the glove on the staute of Al Kaline at Comerica instead of dismantling the Big Mac-land sign anymore in Busch Stadium.
I am surprised this trade doesn’t have a box of bats involved with it, or maybe uniforms… or some BBQ.
But could have been worse, you could have traded for Dontrelle Willis, Don Knotts and Dom DeLuise, of which two are deceased….Wonder which two?
