    Bay supposedly still talking to other teams. No indication they are talking back however.

    And including Mike in this too - OK, kids, the Magical Mystery Tour was a bit more than 40 years ago. Their first album came out roughly 50 years ago (next year). Let's not rush these things.

    Untrue mystery team in on Victorino
    http://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2012/1...victorino.html

    The Indians and Red Sox remain in the mix, along with a third club. That third suitor isn't a true "mystery team," says Heyman -- it's just unknown to him.

    I'm really looking forward to the World Series between the Mystery Team and the Magical Team - should go at least 9 games!

    As a child of the 1960s, I assumed this referred to drugs and not baseball. We learn something new every day.
