Many sources, including Tom Krasovic of Fan House, reported on the deal. It sends Jake Westbrook to the Cardinals, Ryan Ludwick and Nick Greenwood to the Padres, and Corey Kluber to the Indians. Kluber leads the Texas League in strikeouts and has given up a little less than a hit an inning. The only real complication during this deal was that Westbrook has to reduce his $2M trade bonus, thus needing Union approval.
I went today to see how setup for the U.S. Open of Surfing is going. They’ve been putting the village up for quite a while, but there is still a lot left to do before tomorrow at 7AM.
Of course, I also spent quite a while on the pier watching the surfers. Some may have been competitors, I don’t know.

Father of the bride: Bill Clinton emerged in Rhinebeck, New York, today ahead of his daughter’s highly anticipated wedding
Former President Bill Clinton gave his future son-in-law a public seal of approval today.
The 63-year-old spoke to fans as he arrived for lunch in Rhinebeck, New York, where his daughter’s lavish nuptials are expected to take place tomorrow.
When quizzed about his thoughts on Chelsea’s groom, investment banker Marc Mezvinsky, he said: ‘I like him very much. I really do. I admire him. Hillary feels the same way.’
Hilary, the secretary of state in President Barack Obama’s Cabinet, sat the trip out this morning, presumably to focus on last minute preparations ahead of the ceremony.
The popular Democrat looked relaxed in blue jeans and a black knit shirt as he walked with security a few blocks north from the picturesque village’s main intersection.
He also said his daughter, who was photographed looking exhausted in New York yesterday, is ‘doing well’.
Between 400 and 500 guests are expected to attend Saturday’s ceremony at the grand Astor Courts, an estate on the scenic east bank of the Hudson River.
Rumors had abounded for weeks leading up to Friday, including one that Rhinebeck was an elaborate decoy planned by the media-shy Chelsea, and that the wedding would be elsewhere.
Man of the people: The former president happily greeted fans
Prosecutors called him ‘a one-man crime wave’. After six years in prison, Ed was released in 2008 but remains on parole.
He fits the bill: Chelsea Clinton and Marc Mezvinsky are set to wed tomorrow
Divorced from Marc’s mother Marjorie, he is expected to attend the ceremony but not the reception. Relations between the prospective in-laws are said to be ‘cool’.
The no-expense-spared ceremony is expected to cost the Clintons a cool £3 million.
Around £400,000 has been spent on erecting the marquees on the 50-acre former estate, while a further £75,000 has been spent on the tables and crockery.
The bride has also ordered a £7,000, five-tier, gluten-free wedding cake.
Chelsea and Mezvinsky were friends as teenagers in Washington, and both attended Stanford University.
They now live in New York, where Mezvinsky works at G3 Capital, a Manhattan hedge fund, and Clinton is pursuing a graduate degree at Columbia University’s School of Public Health.
Mezvinsky worked previously at Goldman Sachs as an investment banker.
Bride-to-be: Chelsea Clinton looked as if wedding pressure had taken its toll and appeared exhausted as she caught a cab in New York yesterday
Last minute preparations: Chelsea’s big day is rumoured to have cost around £3million and has been described as the biggest wedding of the year
Chelsea has long sought a life away from the spotlight. She lives quietly in a Manhattan apartment and is described as casual, modest and friendly.
She has blossomed from the gawky corkscrew-curled 12-year-old who entered the White House in 1992 into an assured young woman who has a strong relationship with both parents, even in the storm of her father’s adultery with Monica Lewinsky.
Ferociously bright, Chelsea studied history at the Ivy League Stanford University before taking a masters in International Relations at Oxford — where she reinvented herself with a sleek makeover, being named by Tatler as one of the world’s most eligible females.
In 2003 she returned to New York to work for management consultancy McKinsey & Company, and later a small hedge fund run by one of her father’s major supporters.
She’s now studying for a master’s degree in Public Health at New York’s Columbia University.
Despite hitting the campaign trail for her mother’s Presidential bid in 2008, Chelsea has made it clear she has no intention of following in her parents’ political footsteps.
No expense spared: A small army of workmen have been on site all week to erect pavilions in the grounds where the wedding will take place

So far, the Yankees appear to be cleaning up with Lance Berkman, Austin Kearns and maybe Ted Lilly.
The Red Sox need some bullpen help desperately, now 6.5 behind the Rays in the AL Wild Card and 7.5 behind NY in the AL East.
The Chelsea Clinton’s wedding has been an interest point to many of us lately. Sure we are curious as to where it will take place and what the wedding will include from food, through flowers, the dress and the like.
Here is some of the scoop on the wedding planner and the location:
The wedding is to be planned by the Boston- area planner Bryan Rafanelli. You bet it will look amazing since Bryan is known for producing some of the most incredible events.
The location for this sought after wedding will expect to take place under a tent at the Astor Courts.
Astor Courts is a 3,500 estate in Rhinebeck New York. This home is a private residence that actually belongs to some of the Clinton’s family friends. If you like what you see you can put in an offer, since the house is currently on the market at Sotheby’s for $12 million. Let me know if you decide to buy it as I will be happy to offer my design expertise
