Looking at the NL West, where my San Francisco Giants play, the deals have been rolling in, but not so much for SF.
Coming in at 3rd place and 7.5 back, the Dodgers picked up pitchers Ted Lilly (3-8, 3.69 ERA) and Octavio Dotel (21 saves, 4.28 ERA), outfielder Scott Podsednik (hit .353 with 30 SBs [...]
