Note to the Pirates: you don’t need an overpriced, overrated, overaged Matt Morris.

Note to the Dodgers: You obviously noticed that Wilson Betemit’s batting .231. Too bad a smart intern didn’t also point out he’s walking one out of every six plate appearances, sporting a .243 ISO, or that his driver’s license says he’s 26.

Note to the Yankees: Well done. (Except Adam Dunn would look really nice playing first base.)

Note to “expert” “analysts”: there is NEVER as much trade deadline action as you think there’s going to be. Stop overhyping it and you’ll stop being disappointed.

Note to Terry Francona: I dare you to split 9th inning opportunities between Papelbon and Gagne and call it a “bullpen by committee”. I double dog dare you.

Note to the Rangers: Sure, you fleeced the Braves for a plethora of young talent. But you’ve been dumping at the trade deadline for so many years, we expect you to be good at it. Find some pitching.

Note to the DRays: Thanks for pandering to my fantasy team’s needs and keeping Al Reyes as a closer. Now, could you please play Jonny Gomes full time and drop Greg Norton by the side of the road?

Note to the Padres: Having the world’s best bench is like golfing with the world’s best caddie. Try finding a second baseman.
