They get LHP Scott Downs for Cory Rasmus. Downs is having a good year.

I didn't even know that Downs was still in the big leagues.  He must be in his mid/late 30s by now.  I remember seeing him pitch for Kentucky against UT several times in the mid 90s.

They're rumored to be in it for Jake Peavey as well.  I'd like to get him, but not if they have to give up Graham or Gilmartin.

Last I heard, the ChiSox are keeping Peavy and trying to build a rotation around him.  I don't want to give up Graham but I don't think the ceiling on Gilmartin is all that high.  Would gladly give him up for Peavy or Bud Norris.

All men dream: but not equally.
Those who Dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds
Wake in the day to find that it was vanity; but the
Dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they
May act their dream with open eyes, to make it Possible.
This I did.
