Thanks Chup. Gonna check this out in a minute.

[IOU]

Barrajas is out which fine by me.

Broxton as well, I'm hoping they know something others don't and we should still be good in the bullpen anyways.

Jamey Carroll, not so sure about letting go of him though. Players like him can be real hard to find.

Of course we got Kemp back, still waiting on Kershaw and the rest of the pick ups I need to go through and see what's what.

Not so sure about keeping Rivera and we need to keep Either.

[MrChupacabra]

Signing Harang and Capuano should help out your pitching staff, though you are losing Kuroda. And yeah, I'm looking forward to Jamey Carroll on the Twins, though we'll have to see how he holds up as an every day shortstop. He's a guaranteed upgrade over all of the garbage we had at short this past season though.

[RALPH LAUREN]

EASTWOOD u r supplying much lulz...

[Toywonder]

why did the diamondbacks sign jason kubel?

theres already three great outfielders in upton, young, and parra. parra won a gold glove last year in left and they want to replace him with kubel?
i dont get it.

selig 2 year extension...dude gets over 22 mil a year and a private jet

I saw the thread jumped 2 pages and I thought maybe something happened I hadn't heard about....buuuuuut no

[MrChupacabra]

Yankees making some moves.

The Mariners needed hitting, the Yankees needed pitching. The two teams addressed each other's needs in a blockbuster trade of young stars, as right-handers Michael Pineda and Jose Campos will go to the Bronx in exchange for catcher/DH Jesus Montero and righty Hector Noesi.

The Yankees have agreed to a one-year contract with Hiroki Kuroda, pending a physical, tweets Jack Curry of the YES Network (Twitter link). The deal will pay Kuroda $10MM, tweets ESPN's Buster Olney.

[pertplus1]

for real? they gave away montero? what the fuck

[Cunt_Eastwood]

Moneyball was probably the most entertaining beisbol ive seen since 08

[MrChupacabra]

Pineda and Campos sure as shit isn't "giving away" Montero. I personally think the Yankees got a great deal on that one.

[pertplus1]

yea, youre right. i was excited to see that dude on the yanks for a while though

[Cus D'Amato]

and let us not forget my j dog Kuroda

[IOU]

Can't believe they let Kuroda go.

[RALPH LAUREN]

KYLE KENDRICK SCOOPED A ONE YEAR DEAL HERE...
HE WAS A VERY UNDERRATED UTILITY PITCHER LAST YEAR CAPABLE OF STARTING OR RELIEVING...

[LUGR]

[MrChupacabra]

Twins sign Joel Zumaya, and there are some rumors kicking around that we're high up in the running for Oswalt, if the Rangers don't snag him.

I don't really know how I feel about Zumaya, given the fact that he hasn't pitched since June of 2010 and has an awful injury history. However, it is really a no risk type of signing at $800K if he doesn't hit any incentives. I'm sure he's not going to be the 100+ mph fireballer that he used to be, but if he can still hit mid to high 90s and works on his secondary pitches to make up for the loss of velocity, he could definitely be a good addition to our pen if he can stay healthy. Just like the majority of the Twins roster for 2012, there are a whole lot of "if's".

In terms of Oswalt, the rumor is that we've offered him somewhere in the ballpark of $17M for a 2 year contract. Definitely goes against all the talk of him wanting a 1 year deal, but who really knows how much weight any of the online rumors hold. Apparently he wants to pitch in Texas, but it all boils down to the Yu Darvish deal.

[RALPH LAUREN]

oswalt is an alligator wrestling redneck, im sure he wants to retire close to home/down south.
great pitcher, i still think he has gas in the tank.

Victor Martinez likely out for season

[RALPH LAUREN]

Joel Pineiro he got a minor league deal with us and will likely come up for middle relief. What's the book on him ? Also 49 year old Jamie Moyer getting a minor league deal with the Rockies. I'm salty about this, I thought for sure phils would keep him just for veteran presence n eventual pitching coach promotion within. Sherm stick got 1yr at 15mil. Raj talkin about long term deals around spring training. If they let him walk after the big Roy n cliff contracts I'll me UMAD as hell. Valdez, our Colombian refugee utility man got 1yr at a mil also. Great to see both guys back.

[MrChupacabra]

Victor Martinez more than likely out for the 2012 season after tearing his ACL. Bummer for the Tigers.

[IHATEU]

Ellsbury one year deal...WOW ONE FULL YEAR!
Saltalamacchia one year deal.. yea another good player inked for ONE fucking year...
Bailey the new closer?? yeaaaa thats gonna be good. fingers crossed on that guy.
Ryan Sweeney the other "gritty" player from Oakland trade... yawn
