Dejan Kovacevic of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette says the Pirates clubhouse is buzzing over the possiblity that Adam LaRoche will soon be traded. However, LaRoche is taking batting practice and is expected to play today.

LaRoche not in the lineup that was just posted.

I wonder if it's a team smart enough to not play him against LHP

My money is on the Giants.

With their offense since the allstar break....I'd have to agree.

He would be the right price for them, or the Mets perhaps (but less likely).

11:00am: John Perrotto says LaRoche has been traded.

If its the Giants I am praying for 2B - Nick Noonan. But that might be pushing it. My Pirates always settle for less,

Post-Gazette is reporting the Red Sox are the suitors.

[AussieDodger]

Red Sox it is.

Damn, I wonder what the return is? Probably another Pitcher. Gawd. Like Hansen really worked out for the Bucs.
