Gulp- Can Joe Mauer be on the Blocks?

Sheets to Oakland

The Oakland Athletics signed former Brewers pitcher Ben Sheets to a one-year, $8 million contract. This is a surprising move by Billy Beane considering he likes to sign players on the cheap and this signing is anything but cheap. All things considered I really like this signing for them.

Players on the Market in 2010

The 2009-10 off-season has been a rather dry market. There have been very few heads popping headlines, other than the expected Roy Halladay trade, the re-signing of Matt Holliday and John Lackey joining Red Sox Nation.

How the Tides have Changed- Jason Bay’s Only Real Option Now

Jason Bay is supposedly “moving on” from the Boston Red Sox. Who does his agent think he is? Scott Boras? Come on. Why in the heck would Jason Bay WANT to leave 65 million on the table to play in a park that he would continue to dominate, playing on a team getting ready to [...]

Aroldis Chapmen- Offered Deal by Boston?

Reports are starting to surface that Aroldis Chapmen has been offered a 4 year 18.5 million dollar deal by the busy Boston Red Sox today. In wake of the John Lackey rumors, they haven’t forgotten about the Cuban sensation and are looking to lock him up as well- which would once again signal that they [...]

Lackey signs with Boston!

Reports are saying that John Lackey has indeed taken a physical for the Boston Red Sox and could be nearing a contract worth an estimated 80 million over 5 years. This could be a heck of a sign for Boston as it adds yet another power arm in an already good starting rotation and could [...]

Mike Lowell to Texas: Adrian Gonzalez On His Way to Boston?

Mike Lowell has supposedly been traded to the Texas Rangers for C/1B Max Ramirez late Wednesday night into Thursday morning. The Red Sox are supposedly picking up at least 90% of the salary which means the deal has to be approved by the commish’s office. This to me signals that Theo Epstein has something huge [...]
