Trades

Internally, I'm not the best person in the world in dealing with change. I could cite numerous examples, but we'll leave it at that.

So that's why it's freaky to see Manny Ramirez in a Dodger uniform, Ken Griffey Jr. in a White Sox uniform, Pudge in a Yankees uniform, and Jason Bay in a Red Sox uniform. Mark Teixeira in an Angels uniform is a little easier to take, as he just joined the Braves last year. The CC and Rich Harden trades were a little easier still, since I don't pay attention to the Indians or A's that much.

MLB, you are upsetting my consistently-ordered and neatly-arranged universe. Thankfully, for the health of not only my sanity but also the team, the O's did not trade Markakis or Roberts.

Totally weird to me, too...especially guys like Manny and Pudge who are SUCH icons of their former teams.
