Talking Baseball
The July meeting of the OLLI Baseball SIG will be held at 3 p.m. on Tuesday, July 11 at the Northside Cafe on the corner of St. Paul and N. 48th Streets.

Which teams will make the big trades at the July deadline? Here's an article from Tom Verducci of "Sports Illustrated" that bemoans the lack of action in modern day baseball.
