Blue Ridge is at it again, making their third trade of the week, dealing Dustin McGowan and a draft pick to Sardine City for catcher Chris Ianetta and infielder Freddy Sanchez. The rumor mill says that Blue Ridge is far from done yet with several offers in the works.
Not all rumors are trade rumors though. The word on the street is that Newark Sugar Bears owner Butch Garretson may retire after this season. Word is that Garretson has lost the joy of running a championship franchise after more than 10 years. While the resignation letter is not in the mail yet, it's looking like Garretson is serious about stepping down. However, like his hero Brett Favre, can he really stay retired for long or will the thrill of competition and shutting down naysayers lure him back?
Things have gotten very tight in the middle of the pack where 7 games separates 5th and 10th place. The Falcons have gotten very hot, winning four straight and working back onto the fringe of contention. The Sardine City Straphangers have also been winning, sweeping Hillsborough and crawling to within 2 games of the 6th place Hitmen. Hillsborough has lost 6 straight. D.C. and Tampa have both lost three straight and look somewhat lost recently.
