OK, I thought this was pretty cool. You can generate your own message on the Disneyland sign and download the result to your computer. I discovered it courtesy of the Business Filter blog on Boston.com

Not much apparent movement on the Santana talks, but there was a blockbuster trade. The Florida Marlins traded their two best known and highest paid players, Miguel Cabrera and Dontrelle Willis to the Detroit Tigers for six minor league prospects. The Tigers certainly made themselves better by adding Cabrera to the lineup, but it remains to be seen what Willis will bring to the table. After winning 22 games and fininshing second in the Cy Young Award voting in 2005, he has only won 22 games in the last two years combined and had a 5.17 ERA with the Marlins last year. Switching to the AL isn't going to make life easier for him, so we'll see how he adjusts.

The Marlins, on the other hand, traded away nearly half of their $30.5 million 2007 payroll. Although the Marlins picked up some promising young players, you have to wonder if anyone will show up at Dolphins Stadium to watch this team next year.
