    Right, a bunch of names have been bandied about, but nothing's been confirmed.

    I like the trade. Offense cant get any worse. They are just going to trade him again anyway. But I may actually go to a game or two this year. Gotta get a Matt Holliday jersey. Or pull out my Nick Swisher and get it altered.

    I wouldn't be surprised if this is actually part of a 3-way deal, with Oakland shipping Holliday elsewhere immediately.

    Well you are 1/2 right.

    Looks like Street might be turned to another team.

    Very possible. The Manny deal was initially reported as Jason Bay going to the Dodgers, with no mention of the Red Sox.

    While I have no problem of Smith and Gonzalez going, I'm not too happy with Street being included in this deal.

    On ESPN.com, Smith and Gonzalez said they received calls already, so I would guess they're just about confirmed.

    "I don't know how official everything is," Smith said, according to the San Francisco Chronicle. "All I know is I've been called, and I'm flying to Denver probably tomorrow."

    "They just called me a little while ago and told me the deal's in place," Gonzalez said, according to USA Today. "It surprised me, but that's how baseball works. You're always subject to be traded."


    They're probably confirmed, pending physicals.

    Yep. Gonzalez and Smith are confirmed, but no word yet on Street.

    This just cements the Mariners last place finish for the next few years.
