The first one between today and tomorrow is obviously the Rangers getting Cristian Guzman according to TR Sullivan Rangers beat writer.
Lots of rumors out there, Padres talking to the Pirates about Paul Maholm. Yankees are looking into Berkman according to John Heyman.

God I hope anyone takes Berkman. I'd trade Carlos Lee for a cup full of right now.
Alyson Footer the Astros writer said Lee was "as untradable as untradable gets"![]()
Buster Olney says Berkman to the Yankees is VERY close.
TR Sullivan says the Rangers are putting out feelers for Rich Harden and Scott Feldman.

Are you talking about TR Sullivan? YOu just can't seem to get the man's name right, can you?![]()
Ill let Bump punch me in the face for messing up his dad's name so much today.
Damn Berkman to the Yankees to be DH and backup Johnson LOL. I'll always appreciate Berkman but it's time for him to go. Hopefully the Yankees take him. Astros are a ing joke.
Just heard on 105.3 the fan before the cowboy lovers insulted the city of san antonio again for the billionth time, that the Rangers have inquired about Ted Lilly...
Berkman deal is done, won't be official till tomorrow however.
Prospects better be decent. LOL Nobody wants Carlos
Nonprospects and salary relief.
flame away![]()
Nothing is better than Berkman at this point.
Uh, yeah, you paid New York to take Berkman.
Sorry I just don't subscribe to the thinking minor leaguers are better than All Stars.
Berkman isn't an All Star and at least minor league players will want to show up every game. He hasn't been decent for the past 2 years. It gets frustrating watching these over priced lazy players every day barely jog to first on a ground ball. Carlos Lee pretty much starts heading to the dugout once the ball is on the ground. It's pathetic.
I think throwing Berkman under the bus like that is a bit much, but whatever...
How many Astros game have you watched these past few years?
He's right about Berkman deserving alot of the blame, but still we should have gotten something back for him
loads.
Against the Cardinals and Rangers and many others just because I love baseball and have a passing interest.
Berkamn had knee surgery in spring training and hasn't been the same since that.
It would be akin to Duncan getting it in training camp and fans pissing on him all year because he didn't "bust ass" up the court on a 4 on 1 fast break.
I respectfully disagre on throwing berkman under the bus for all their problems. I think all their problems resulted from signing Carlos Lee but thats just me...
There is no argument there. I hated the signing from day 1. Carlos Lee is a piece of . No doubt.
He's a DH. It was said that offseason he's a DH he can't play the field anymore, paying that much for a DH is lunacy.
Had they not blown that money there they could've spread it out a bit more and contended a bit better.
Like getting a real third baseman and not guys like Pedro Feliz and blondie...
I personally think JA Happ is a damn good pitcher and will be a great addition...
Berkman is probably glad to go...... He has definitely not lived up to standards the last couple of years. Astros are done. ing joke.
Some quotes from Berkman
"He approached me two days ago with a list of probably eight teams that had expressed some interest. There were four yeas and four nays. There were some that were just no possibility," Berkman said.Earlier Friday, Berkman vetoed a trade to the White Sox, USA Today reported.
