If Ubaldo starts in Denver, no way is there a completed deal.

RT @GordonEdes: Red Sox haven't abandoned hopes of getting Jimenez, according to M-L source. "Crazy," the source said.

If he starts, he can go to the Red Sox, but not Cleveland??
Hamilton just reported it was "close to official" for the Indians.

RED FLAG WARNING.

7:13pm: Jimenez is currently out in the bullpen and warming up to pitch against the Padres according to Renck (on Twitter), so the deal may not be done yet. He could still pitch for Colorado before a trade is finalized, but teams traditionally won't risk injury in this situation.

Joel Sherman of The New York Post reports (on Twitter) that four days ago the Yankees asked the Rockies if they could perform a physical on Jimenez if the two sides came to an agreement on a trade. Colorado refused, to the Yankees backed out.

Very doubtful a deal would be in place and Ubaldo would start.

Colorado telecast says Ubaldo will start the game for the Rockies.

They said a rumor had swept the Rockies clubhouse 30 minutes ago that Ubaldo was officially traded.

So even they are clueless.

So why did the Indians pull their guys?

Maybe the Rockies backed off.

Or else the deal will be finalized during the game and Ubaldo will be pulled out then, ala Pence last night.

Pomeranz signed last August so would have to be a player to be named later in the deal, can't be traded until one yr anniversary of signing

So IF the deal went down as described, what happens if Pomeranz gets a serious injury before he can be traded?
