Jenn Sterger's covering the Trade Deadline for SI.com, right? Think of how effective she'd be as an inside information gatherer...
I'll keep this updated as news does or doesn't roll in. Will this trade deadline be the snore-fest many have predicted, or, as Tennyson said, will "some work of noble note, may yet be done"?
• Flanagan on Teahen's power outage.
• Rob Neyer will be chatting at ESPN at 12 ET.
• Rosenthal's latest includes no new news on Dotel, but does mention that Troy Glaus could be on the block.
• Will Carroll had this to say about the Dotel-Davies trade, the one that some people have referred to as done (as in completed) while others feel its distant:
• AJC on the Dotel-Davies rumor. Davies stats here.
• According to the Seattle PI, the Dotel-Davies deal is done, only official announcement is being delayed until the Teixeira deal goes final.
• The Cleveland Plain Dealer isn't giving up the ghost that the Tribe still remains interested in Dotel. According to the PD, Detroit is also a player.
• One odd slightly interesting thing about Davies, he's actually named "Hiram Kyle Davies", but appears to be known exclusively as Kyle. I'm shocked that someone growing up in Georgia and employed in baseball would drop Hiram.

Jayon Stark reports that the Dotel-Davies trade is finalized, still just waiting on the Tex trade to go through.
