  into HBO’S JOHN FROM CINCINNATI, I have yet to decide whether I love the show or loathe it. One thing I do know I still am clueless as to what exactly’s going on and the real deal with the mysterious John. Speaking of clueless, over the weekend at the TCA Press Tour, Fox President Peter Liguori failed to acknowledge that last

  Gotham Baseball's Mark Healey has a new post up with some good trade rumors: The Mets are talking to the Rangers about Brad Wilkerson, not Eric Gagne.  This makes sense, as Wilkerson has hit lefties well this year and can play right field. The Mets are also talking to the Reds; could've been about Ken Griffey Jr. or David Weathers.
