Sox P Brian Farmer exercises his option and will become a FA.
Generals fire MGR Armando Vigil.
Huskers fire GM Howard Powell & MGR Karl Phillips.
Atlanta fired GM Felix Dominguez.

[The Game]

Cincinnati fired GM Andy Miller.
Cardinals fired MGR Francisco Castro.
Chicago Sox trade RP Michael Urban to the Brooklyn Dodgers for SP Steve Stewart & a minor league P & RF.

[The Game]

Michael Urban demanded a trade and I like the LHP Steve Stewart along with a minor league SP & RF.
Owner Ben Hamilton wants an upgrade at SS. I like Ozzie Guillen and for now I am committed to him. It all depends on which FA's I sign. Also if 3B Joe Altott wins the job out of ST then Brian Gray will move to SS.I have every intention of giving Small a 2-3 yr extension. We'll review the Hometown player when FA's file.
Our budget dropped a bit.

Free agents file.

Of these hitters I plan on pursuing The Rock heavily. Mu'adh bin Kutaiba which should give my Owner the hometown guy as he is from nearby Crest Hill. If i fail on those 2 I will go after C Jon Burchette, SS Harry Hart, RF Larry Walker & SS Pedro Tapia.
