Now that July 31st has past, everybody is beginning to evaluate the trades that were made. Here is a list of winners and losers from various sites:
- NBC Sports like the Red Sox, but not so much the Reds.
- ESPN likes the Cliff Lee deal, but not the Pirates‘ rebuilding efforts.
- SI likes the White Sox big trade, but not the Rangers‘ lack of moves.
- Fox Sports likes the Washburn deal, but not the Indians‘ unloading of superstars.
- Yahoo! Sports likes Kenny Williams, but not J.P. Ricciardi.
