Great Day for Milwaukee

The Brew Crew from the cheesehead state made a big splash today by signing Randy Wolf and LaTroy Hawkins to bolster the pitching staff. Hawkins should provide some stability in terms of a late-inning, go-to guy to set up for Trevor Hoffman. Hawkins has always been underrated in terms of a set up guy, and [...]

Pudge a National

Pudge has agreed to a 2 year deal worth approximately 6 or 7 million. I actually love the sign. Pudge has had the reputation of going to young teams and really helping out the pitching staffs. He’s a real professional and one of the best defensive catchers ever. I think he’s got some baseball left, [...]

Shocker- Soriano accepts Arbitration

In a shocking twist of events, argubaly the best right handed reliever on the market decided to accept arbitration and will return to Atlanta. I for one did not see this coming as I thought for sure he could land a 3 year deal worth a good 19-24 million a year. Apparently Soriano and his [...]

Potential Granderson Deal Shot Down by Cubs

The Detroit Tigers have supposedly submitted an official trade offer to the Chicago Cubs. The deal was reportedly Curtis Granderson for Starlin Castro and two other top prospects. The Cubs have said “no thanks” to the trade as they won’t part with Starlin Castro for Granderson. My take: It would have been a bad deal. [...]

Mets Meeting with Lackey’s Camp Tonight

Reports are indicating that the New York Mets will be meeting with Lackey’s Reps tonight. It’s unclear at this point if the Mets are going to saddle up the money that will likely be needed to bring in the Ace, but I’m sure they’ll get a good feel for what the market is going to [...]

St. Louis Luring Penny

According to some sources, Brad Penny’s agent is deep in negotiations with the St. Louis Cardinals who are prepared to lose Joel Piniero this winter and are looking for another arm. San Francisco has recently made contact with Penny’s agent to discuss a return, so let the bidding wars begin.

Just Say No Jim!

There have been rumors of a trade between the Cubs and the Tigers. The Cubs would be sending 3rd base prospect Josh Vitters and Pitcher Andrew Cashner to the Tigers for Center Fielder Curtis Granderson and pitcher Edwin Jackson. Although Curtis Granderson is one of my favorite players, I hope that this deal does not [...]

Is Figgins Really the Best Choice for Seattle?

I’ll be frank. I think the Mariners dropped the ball again in terms of spending money on the free agent market. Everyone knew that Figgins was going to be overpaid, but I think he was overpaid by a team that frankly needs more than another speedster to compete in the AL West with the Angels [...]

Jermaine Dye headed down I55 South to St. Louis?

Jermaine Dye has been one of the more underrated players in the last 10-15 years. He consistently produces at the plate and does it without much flair for the dramatic. That’s why I think Jermaine Dye could end up as a St. Louis Cardinal this offseason WHEN, not IF they miss out on Matt Holliday. [...]

Soriano on Chicago White Sox Wishlist?

Rafael Soriano is arguably the best free agent reliever on the market this winter. Numerous teams are going to be calling seeing what kind of contract he’s looking for, and if he’d be okay setting up again. Numerous teams make sense for Soriano to land but the question is- which ones are going to pony [...]
