bigdog17k Posted November 25, 2009 Report Share Posted November 25, 2009 Eric Gagne and Ben Sheets are going to attempt comebacks. Also, as expected, the Cubs are very interested in Curtis Granderson. Sheets has always been pretty good though, I thought he was just rehabbing all of last season and that's why he couldn't play.

Phightins Posted November 25, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 25, 2009 Tim Lincecum may ask for $20MM+ in arbitration. For those of you who are not familiar with how the arbitration system works, just know that this is absolutely unheard of. When Ryan Howard asked for $10 million a few years ago, everybody thought that was astounding. But then again, it's not like there has ever been a pitcher with two Cy Young's before they even got to their first arbitration case. I am just trying to imagine where this goes from here, if he keeps this up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigdog17k Posted November 27, 2009 Report Share Posted November 27, 2009 This isn't really a rumor, but it seemed like the best place to post this. I found out today that my team traded for Mark Teahan, like where was I? It seemed like they didn't even talk about this, Teahan is a good versatile player. Glad he's on the Sox.

EastCoastNiner Posted November 27, 2009 Report Share Posted November 27, 2009 Well, it will be tough to beat a team with Josh Beckett, Roy Halladay, Jon Lester, and Dice-K Matsuzaka as a teams starting pitchers. Get Roy Halladay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is one of my favorites, it will be awful tough to see him in a Mets uniform.To think I was just about to make a joke post about our fabolous signings of Alex Cora and Chris Coste. Yay now I get to listen to more stories about the 33 year old rookie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phightins Posted December 1, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 1, 2009 Chris Coste is a really great guy, honestly one of my all time favorite Phillies as ridiculous as that may sound. I don't think he can play anymore, however, and Mets fans will realize this very soon if they have not already. He will be a hell of a manager someday, though. And I agree that the Cora signing is an absolute joke and it illustrates why I think Omar Minaya is a terrible general manager. This team has so many holes, and Minaya gives $2 million guaranteed to Alex Cora? When there are so many younger guys who could do exactly what Cora will do (and probably more) for a quarter of the price? Don't get it, but whatever, as a Phillies fan I am not complaining.

Phightins Posted December 1, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 1, 2009 The Tigers did not offer arbitration to Placido Polanco, which is kind of big since he is a type-A free agent. This means that if somebody other than the Tigers signs him, they do not need to give up their first round pick. I am guessing this makes him a hell of a lot more attractive to the Phillies now.

Warren2ThaG Posted December 3, 2009 Report Share Posted December 3, 2009 http://www.rotoworld.com/images/photos/MLB/CHC/MLB_Harden_small.jpg-------------Mariners with strong interest in RHP HardenTwo major league sources told FOXSports.com that the Mariners are showing strong interest in free agent right-hander Rich Harden.They'll have competition from the Red Sox, among others. According to the report, the market for Harden is expected to move rather quickly now that the Cubs didn't the 28-year-old arbitration. The Mariners could have a leg up considering that Harden is a native of British Columbia. Dec. 2 - 5:09 pm et---http://msn.foxsports.com/mlb/story/10357594 I'm so for it! heheheheh.

Morosi isn't sure of the Mariners' preference, however the market on Harden is expected to develop more quickly since he wasn't offered arbitration by the Cubs this week.

Teletopez Posted December 3, 2009 Report Share Posted December 3, 2009 Atlanta also signed Takashi Saito, so they seem to be set with a setup man and a closer, assuming Wagner is able to perform well in his roll. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cobb Posted December 3, 2009 Report Share Posted December 3, 2009 Seems like the Braves are really looking to makes some moves this offseason. Glad to see we've got out there and started filling some positions up. The one thing I'm worried about is the age. We now have two relieves over the age of 35 and we're going to be relying on them all season long. I just hope they can stay healthy all season long.

Well chances are they lose Soriano and Gonzalez so they had to get some cheaper options. Edited December 4, 2009 by Phightins Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
