OH MAN WE NEVER POST ANYMORE!
Well, we here at PaRMLoT are all about bucking trends little by little, AKA, when I'm supposed to be finishing a chapter for work, I write lists about fake things that happened in baseball today (but not really).
Anyway, we've all heard that story about the baseball player who got traded for an expensive dinner or a handful of bats... well, guess what. THINGS LIKE THAT STILL HAPPEN. For instance, today--the date of the Major League Baseball trade deadline--the following trades happened:
22. Gary Matthews Jr. traded from the Angels to the Astros for a relatively sizeable hunk of cheese
21. Marco Scutaro traded from the Blue Jays to the Oriolies for four screws, a thumbtack, and a sheet of paper with a crudely drawn penis on it
20. Heath Bell traded from the Padres to the Mets for the Asian Jonathan Papelbon
