San Diego traded Phil Nevin for Sidney Ponson. The deal is pending upon approval by Nevin. The Padres also got Joe Randa from the Reds for 2 minor league pitchers.

I can see why the Padres got Randa. They needed help at third base and Randa is a good fit. But both Ponson and Nevin sucked ass this year. I am kinda surprise that the Orioles traded starting pitching away... they need help at starting pitching.

They need to get rid of Ponson to make room for Burnet, because Ponson has a HUGE contract, and the Fish will only trade Burnet with Mike Lowell, who has an even bigger contract. Basically a move to free up money and get a decent DH.

The Orioles needed to do something quick otherwise they're done. I cant believe they got swept by the Rays.

Good for Nevin, He helped the Pads not make a really bad deal.
