ghost of miles Posted November 5, 2009 Report Share Posted November 5, 2009 Will the Yanks try returning Phil Hughes or Joba Chamberlain to the starting rotation next year? And what will they do if Pettitte elects to retire? Then there's the Damon/Matsui conundrum, mentioned above... Sorry, those are rather Yankee-centric. Here's a more general one (though it could end up applying to the Yankees as well, esp. if Pettitte doesn't come back)--what pitchers of note besides John Lackey will potentially be on the free-agent market?

PHILLYQ Posted November 6, 2009 Report Share Posted November 6, 2009 The White Sox traded for Mark Teahen, which may help them quite a bit. I'd also look to Mark Bannister to be dealt by the Royals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrick Posted November 6, 2009 Report Share Posted November 6, 2009 The White Sox traded for Mark Teahen, which may help them quite a bit. I'd also look to Mark Bannister to be dealt by the Royals. I thought it was Brian Bannister. Pretty good starter, might actually do well on a talented team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
papsrus Posted November 6, 2009 Report Share Posted November 6, 2009 Rays dealt Aki Iwamura to the Pirates on Tuesday for young reliever Jesse Chavez. They say the kid's got a lot of upside. Rays had some depth at 2B and their pen is definitely a weak area, so probably a good move. I'm guessing they cleared some salary room with the move as well.

Tim McG Posted November 6, 2009 Report Share Posted November 6, 2009 OK, ladies and gents......step up to the stove. You rock, Brooks My Gigantes signed Freddy Sanchez to a two year deal. I just hope his knee stays healthy. Lincecum cited for marijuana possession Media hysteria. No big. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chalupa Posted November 6, 2009 Report Share Posted November 6, 2009 The TFKATWFC(Team Formerly Known As The World Fuckin' Champions) just sent out a tweet saying that they had picked up Cliff Lee's option for 2010. Gee, didn't see that one coming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthew Posted November 7, 2009 Report Share Posted November 7, 2009 See where Mannyworld re-upped for another year for a cool $20,000,000.... like anyone else was going to pay that kind of ca$h. Ken Griffey is about to make up his mind whether he wants to come back with the Mariners or not. It would be great if he came back, but I think the smart decision is to call it a career, what for the Hall of Fame call up, and just enjoy being one of the greatest players ever; without a doubt, the Kingdom Griffey was the greatest player I ever saw, even better than Bonds.

Dave James Posted November 11, 2009 Report Share Posted November 11, 2009 (edited) Seattle just announced the signing of Ken Griffey, Jr. for 2010. Also, good news for Dan if he's still lurking or for any other Red Sox fan. Jason Veritek, a.k.a. the most useless catcher on the planet, just notified the Sox that he's exercising his $3 million player option for the upcoming season. He hit all of .209 last year and threw out just 10 of 118 baserunners. No wonder Theo Epstein says they're expecting him to have a good year in 2010. Up over and out.

Dave James Posted November 12, 2009 Report Share Posted November 12, 2009 In Seattle, Junior walks on water. He is almost single handedly responsible for the very existence of Safeco Field. I think the M's could keep him on their active roster until he was eligible for Medicare and the fans up there would be fine with it. Up over and out.

Matthew Posted November 12, 2009 Report Share Posted November 12, 2009 Griffey was a major presence for Seattle, both on and off the field. Stats didn't look that great, but he got some very key hits in games, and his plain having fun with the Mariners made the clubhouse go from toxic in 2008, to being great in 2009. I would have preferred that he retire, but I'm not complaining about having him there for one more year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matthew Posted November 15, 2009 Report Share Posted November 15, 2009 Nice tour of the new Minneapolis stadium. Some aspects I don't like, and why can't these new stadiums get the bleacher seats right? Seems like a lot of these new places have obstructed views.
