Knapp, De Fratus, Savery, Flande, Way, May, Carrasco, Stutes, Worley, etc. etc.

Not saying they'll all work out (far from it), but most likely one or two of them will.

I don't know the structure of the org.

Giles = Queen of England
Monty = Prime Minister

Werth = Editor of "The Sun"

I'm pretty sure its the other way around. At least that was the impression I picked up when i worked there last summer

EDIT: From what I saw, Giles is very hands-off, he is still involved, but Monty I think is really running the show

I dont think Giles has much involvelment in the operations anymore. He's virtually powerless at this point. It's Monty's show.

The Phantom 5 own like 98% of the team, Monty has a small stake and is the de-facto voice of the group, right?

Doesn't adding Halladay's salary affect Monty's small share of the profit? Just sayin'. Them Wharton buys are usually greedy pricks.

Monty is the General Partner. He runs all operations. The Limited Partners have no authority re the day to day operations of the club (aside from the ability to remove the General Partner). I'm sure Monty consults them to the extent they want to be consulted, but I doubt they are involved on these issues as long as the cash is there in the operating budget.

This would be a tremendous time for Middleton or one of the other silent ones to speak up.

Rays, Red Sox Talking Blockbusters With Tribe
By Ben Nicholson-Smith [July 27 at 1:35pm CST]
The Rays and Red Sox are each discussing blockbuster deals with the Indians for both Cliff Lee and Victor Martinez, according to Joel Sherman of the New York Post. Here are the details and the rest of Sherman's rumors:

The Rays would deal Wade Davis, but the Red Sox are hesitant to deal Clay Buchholz.
The Phillies, Brewers and Rangers have interest in Lee and the Giants have interest in V-Mart.
One executive is "1,000%" confident the Indians will move Lee and Martinez to free up money.
An AL executive says the Phillies will acquire Lee, Roy Halladay or Jarrod Washburn by Friday afternoon.

I love the sound of the Rays and Sox, not the Dodgers, duking it out for Lee.

by **FTN** » Mon Jul 27, 2009 14:52:42

Drabek, Taylor, Carrasco and Marson for Washburn = best deal

by **Trent Steele** » Mon Jul 27, 2009 14:53:25

1:48pm: A high-ranking official involved in talks between the Jays and Phillies tells Heyman there's a 5% chance a deal happens. Neither side seems willing to change its proposal, but that could change before Friday.
