A little less conversation, a little more action

Well, it looks like the super exciting trade deadline has come and gone with no Oakland Athletic changing teams. Blanton-to-the-Dodgers rumors had cooled by this morning, and the lukewarm Mike Piazza talks didn't get off the ground.

One thing to remember is this was the non-waiver deadline. Players can still be traded until August 31, but they have to clear waivers. I think Piazza could clear waivers, as could Kennedy and maybe a few others.

I can't help but be a little disappointed. Maybe that's because when I play Out of the Park Baseball, I'm wheelin' and dealin' at the deadline like nobody's business. But I guess in real world of baseball, it helps to know when not to make a move.
