Hello all – hopefully everyone is having a great holiday season and your bowl picks are hitting at better than 55%. Not too much today, just a few notes in case you missed them over the past week or so. (and thanks to a tip from Billfer I think we got a workaround on the rotator)
– Carlos Quentin is headed to San Diego.
– JV will be the cover boy for MLB 2k12 – check out the image here.
– For those of us who thought the Tigers would be content to hand Turner the 5th starter slot, we were wrong. To begin, (for some reason,) the Braves may covet Delmon Young, and the Tigers are trying to leverage that into Jair Jurrjens. Further, the Tigers are in hot pursuit of Matt Garza according to multiple sources. (stay tuned on this story)
– Jackson (32), Avila (18) and Porcello (37) made Keith Law’s very narrow and very un-newsworthy list of top 50 players 25 and under (you need insider).
– Great post on Fangraphs yesterday discussing the FA pitchers who signed 1 year deals before spring training last year, and compared their seasons.
Happy New Year everyone!
