Today's phrase: Hot Stove. Use it in a sentence, you say? No problem. "The hot stove is roaring right now. There's lots of chatter about Roy Halladay and John Lackey."
Definition:
> Hot stove is most often used in reference to meetings and discussions around major league baseball in the off-season as if executives are huddled around a hot stove during these cold winter months to discuss trades and acquisitions of players.
> Feel free to use my example above around the water cooler or you could say something like, "What's going on around the hot stove? I heard Halladay and Lackey are on the move." Instant sports cred.
Chat it up and enjoy!

Everyone is trying to one up the Yanks. The Angels are the big losers so far, losing Guerrero, Lackey and Figgins, while the Mariners have improved, adding Figgins and Cliff Lee. Bay is now not returning to the Sawks and the additions of Lackey and Cameron have improved them a little. The Jays however are definitely in a rebuilding mode. Granderson helps the Yanks but the Sawks inch a little closer.
