The MLB trade deadline is today. The day started out pretty slow but has picked up a lot of steam over the past hour. Jake Peavy has been traded to the White Sox, Scott Rolen has been traded to the Cincinnati Reds, Jarrod Washburn has been traded to the Tigers and Victor Martinez has been traded to the Red Sox. With only 7 hours left, will we see Halladay moved as well?

Other than the Pittsburgh Pirates who has been trading away every player the own for prospect, the Boston Red Sox have been one of the most active teams this summer, making deals for Adam LaRoche and now Victor Martinez. They’ve also been trying to grab Halladay from the Blue Jays. If they can pull that off it would make the Red Sox the AL favorite, even though they aren’t winning their division. Victor Martinez is a great trade for them. He can play catcher and firstbase, plus DH if they need him too.

Jake Peavy to the White Sox is an interesting move considering he hasn’t pitched since early June and there is no clear time table on his return. Ankle injuries are tricky. The White Sox must hope he’ll back back in time to contribute down the stretch.

How is your team fairing today on the MLB trade deadline? Post a comment and let us know.

The National League came up just one run short again last night in the 2009 MLB All-Star game. This marks the 13th game in a row they have not been able to win. The NL had a chance to take the league in the bottom of the 7th inning when Colorado Rockie Brad Hawpe launched a shot to deep left center. The ball should have left the yard but Tampa Bay Rays outfielder Carl Crawford was there to rob the homerun with a leaping grab at the wall. This catch earned Crawford the 2009 MLB All-Star Game MVP Award.

Not since Ted Williams hit .406 in 1941 has any Major League Baseball player hit .400 or above. There have been several players to get close, but hitting over .400 for an entire season is a remarkable feat. A batter would need to get on an incredible hot streak and continue it for months. Today, I tried to “Stump Zeke” with the question: Since Ted Williams hit over .400 in 1941, who has come the closest?” Check the video below for his response.

So I’m watching the ESPN bottom line this morning as I’m getting ready for work and saw a mention of Albert Pujols jacking his 29th and 30th homerun of the season last night. That’s 30 homeruns and we haven’t even hit the midway point of the season. He’s on pace for about 62 homeruns, which would be an incredible feat since the steroid eruption a few years ago. No one has hit over 60 homeruns since Barry Bonds and Sammy Sosa did it in 2001.

Because Pujols is still so young (he’s only 29) and still in the prime of his career it’s hard to comprehend just how good he is. I challenge anyone to give me a player in history who has been a better hitter than Pujols through the first 9 seasons of their career. Pujols has gone 100 runs – 30 homeruns – 100 rbi or better in 7 of his first 8 full seasons, and the only season he didn’t reach that feat… he had 99 runs.

Through 78 games of his 9th season, Pujols has 349 total homeruns. Assuming he ends the 2009 season with 370 homeruns, he will have a legitimate shot at breaking Barry Bonds all-time homerun record before the age of 40! I never would have thought that was possible. Pujols has a career .334 batting average and is so consistent at the plate. He draws a lot of walks and strikes out at a much lower rate then other homerun hitters.

Alex Rodriguez generally gets crowned as the greatest baseball player today… but now that his name is tainted with steroids shouldn’t that honor go to Pujols? What’s your take on Albert Pujols? Do you think we’re witnessing one of the best players the game has ever seen?

Mark Reynolds of the Arizona Diamondbacks is off to a hot start in 2009. He’s batting .269 with 15 homeruns, 38 runs, 37 RBI and 12 stolen bags. Quite impressive for someone who set one of the worst MLB records to own last season. Today’s “Stump Zeke” sports trivia question is: What single season MLB record did Mark Reynolds set in 2008? Check the video for an answer.
