What's a "heat beat"?

If I want to read an article w/ bad grammar, I'll read something on Bleacher Report

What's a "heat beat"?

I don't know how to explain it. It's a figure of speech or something. It's like I would do that instance if that came to be. (the trade)

At least my articles are true like this one. These are real rumors, not false rumors like bleacher report has.

Just a suggestion, don't us "according to person x" so much. It gets old. Find another way to say it.

It's called a heartbeat. "in a heartbeat"

:lmao::lmao::lmao::lmao::lmao:

How else can I say it? That's the only way, I know how to.

 

[Jntg4]

"person x reports..."
"person x's sources say..."

 

[waldo7239117]

"person x reports..."
"person x's sources say..."

I will try that but according to x sounds fine. But I will change it, I have no problem with that.

We know it sounds fine, but having it 50 times in an article is annoying.

Yea, I really cannot believe you're in college.

 

[waldo7239117]

OK I see, I will change it. Thanks for letting me know.

Bruce Levine mentions that the Yanks will go after Ted Lilly with the injury to Andy Pettite who was just placed on the 15 day DL today.

McAllister+another small prospect for Lilly? He hasn't been too great in AAA this year, but then again he is only 22 and just look at his numbers in 2009 and 2008. McAllister and Gary Sanchez (he's hitting .378/.455/.622 as a 17 year old in rookie ball right now and was the Yankees 7th best prospect before the year according to BA). McAllister was 5th.

 

[waldo7239117]

Also, Levine states that 4-6 teams have called the Cubs constantly about Ted Lilly. Teams that could be the ones that called: Twins, Mets, Yanks, Angels, White Sox and Red Sox. The last sentence is what teams I think have constantly called Jim Hendry.

 

[Got teeth? Keith doesn't.]

He's going to be going to a NY team most likely.

 

[waldo7239117]

Also, the Tigers and Rockies are among the teams showing interest in Theriot. This was in my blog but that was according to George Ofman, this one is according to Levine. Get it done JH.

I expect that too, they were going to overprice for Lee, maybe they will do the same for Lilly. :bowrofl::bowrofl: This is probably just hope.
