If the Jays can't move Rios for the right price (right pitcher) there's no need moving him. Let him blossom. There are other pitchers and other years and other ways to get what's needed. Besides, who knows, perhaps Towers rebounds or Jansen steps up and produces. I think JP is right in holding on to an asset like Rios. Adam Lind is most likely capable of replacing Rios in the outfield, but Rios is just as 'most likely' to wow everyone again next season.

I can't see Towers rebounding. Still, I'd keep Rios.

If I were the Jays I'd sign Tomo Ohka. He's underrated as hell.

Oh, and the RJ deal is official now.

I watched Toma Ohka and Tony Armas Jr play as Expos, both have some great stuff. Alas, inconsistency and in Armas' case injuries plague them.

Armas might not be a bad gamble, though he can never put it together. He's still only 28 though, so he has a shot at turning it around.

The votes are in. The class of 2007 for the Baseball Hall of Fame are Cal Ripken Jr., and Tony Gwynn.

Ripkin and Gwynn were shoe-ins.

I'm pretty shocked McGwire didn't get more votes than that. I didn't think he'd get in but wow, only like 23 percent.

Blue Jays signed RHP John Thomson, who had been with the Braves, to a one-year contract.

He's believed to be guaranteed $500,000. It's safe to assume there are also some incentives involved. Thomson finished with ERAs of 4.47 and 4.82 while being limited to 32 starts over the last two seasons, but at 33, he's young enough to settle back in as a third or fourth starter. At $500,000, he's a great pickup for a Blue Jays team short on starting pitching.

Not bad.

Oh yeah, and:

Rockies signed catcher Javy Lopez to a one-year, $750,000 contract.

The contract isn't guaranteed, so the Rockies would owe him just a fraction of the salary if they cut him in spring training. If Lopez makes the team, his salary will be boosted to $1 million and he'll have a chance to make $600,000 in incentives. Lopez was brutal during his time with the Red Sox, but his .265/.314/.412 line in 279 at-bats with the Orioles last season suggests he still has a little something left. While he's currently third on the Rockies' depth chart at catcher, there is the chance that a good spring could earn him the start on Opening Day.

The tumor that was removed from Yankees broadcaster Bobby Murcer's brain during surgery last month was found to be malignant.

Awful news. Murcer, who spent 17 years in the majors before retiring in 1983, is scheduled to travel back to Houston this week to consult with doctors. "I'm not having to battle this alone, but am fortified with the most loving family, an abundance of wonderful friends and fans and the very best class of physicians," Murcer said in a statement. "I'm gaining confidence that with God and my faith leading the way, we will as a team put up an incredible fight. Please continue to send up prayers. That's all I can really ask of you at this time."

According to ESPN's Peter Gammons, Mark Mulder will be guaranteed $13 million by the Cardinals over the next two years.

Gammons also reports that if he makes 30 starts in 2007 and 2008, incentives can make the deal worth three years and $45 million. However, there's almost no way he's starting 30 games this season. He's hoping to return in May or June, but both the Indians and Rangers seemed to be thinking July.

Giants announced the retirement of RHP Tim Worrell.

John Thomson said he picked the Jays over the Mets in part because of Paul Lo Duca's presence in New York.

"As far as just looking at Paul Lo Duca across the field, I'm not really into how he acts behind the plate," Thomson said on a conference call. "I know a bit about Gregg Zaun and I know he wants to win and he's not going to let anything get in his way to do that, and I like that." Lo Duca has seemingly been well liked whereever he's played, but it's easy to see why his opponents wouldn't like him. Still, to choose maybe a third-place team in the AL East over a first-place team in the NL East might not been the best career move for the 33-year-old.

The Mets are close to signing left-hander Scott Schoeneweis to a three-year deal, ESPN.com reports.

Free agent Esteban Yan has agreed to terms with the Hanshin Tigers of Japan on a one-year contract.

Before the Orioles could sign him to a three-year deal? Yan, 31, had a 5.54 ERA in 37 1/3 innings with the Angels and Reds last season. He finished the year in the Royals' minor league system.

The Cubs haven't made any progress recently in talks with free agent Cliff Floyd.

The Chicago Tribune reported three weeks ago that the two sides were close to deal, but the paper has had little to say on the subject since. If the season started today, the Cubs would likely go with an outfield with Matt Murton in left, Jacque Jones in center and Alfonso Soriano in right. Trading Jones remains a possibility, but they don't seem to see Soriano as an option in center, meaning they'd have to get a stopgap back with Felix Pie still not ready.

The Blue Jays have discussed a long-term deal with Lyle Overbay, who is eligible for arbitration for the second time.

Overbay is due for a raise to about $4.5 million-$5 million after making $2.525 million in his first season with Toronto. He'll be eligible for free agency after 2008. The Jays could try signing him for about $21 million for three years or $30 million for four.

The Cardinals are talking with free agent Preston Wilson, probably about a one-year deal.

Wilson hit .243/.300/.486 in 111 at-bats after joining the Cardinals last season and then .200 with two RBI in 35 at-bats in the playoffs. St. Louis could bring him back as a fourth outfielder. Giving him any of Chris Duncan's playing time against righties would be a bad idea.

The Pirates made their initial contract offer to free agent Brian Lawrence late Monday.

It's likely a one-year major league contract. The Mariners and Padres have also made offers to Lawrence, and it's only a matter of time before the Rockies do the same. Because he's expressed a preference for playing on the West Coast, the Pirates are long shots to sign him.

Really sucks about Murcer. I wish him the best. One of my favorite announcers. No Murcer OR Jim Kaat this year? Terrible. Looks like we'll be dealing with Singleton, Michael Kay and Leiter/Girardi/O'Neill. Michael Kay is such a tool. I love hearing him and Leiter argue all the time though.

Mulder could bounce back, though I doubt he does it this season. 2008 might be his year.

Retarded move by the Mets giving an old, slightly above average middle reliever a 3 year deal.

Cliff Floyd could be a great pickup for the Cubs, but that's if he stays healthy which is highly unlikely.

Preston Wilson is useless.

I wonder how much Lawrence will get. Whatever it is, it'll be too much.

I'd take a gamble on Lawrence. You could sign him on the cheap. In fact if a team had made a move in this direction a month ago, they'd have gotten him even cheaper.

I don't know, he's on the wrong side of 30, hasn't pitched in a year and couldn't post sub 4.00 ERAs in the best pitching park in the worst division in baseball when he was healthy. If he were a few years younger I'd say he'd be worth a gamble because he has good control and doesn't walk anybody.

Then again, I doubt he'd be anything more than a number 4 starter, so he might pan out for somebody.

I really don't pay a bit of attention to any of this steroid talk, especially with Bonds, until he is actually suspended. Sure, he most likely did it, but what is the point of speculating? Nothing matters until he is suspended.

Lol, I know this is somewhat sarcastic and is based on what I said in the past (when I alluded to the media purposely depicting Bonds the way they do because he is an ass hole, but when he actually did a full out live interview on ESPN that time he seemed a lot more legit...but whatever).

But the other time that I am referring to in my post earlier today is when those San Francisco Chronical reporters wrote that book on him. I mean, good for them, I've heard they did excellent reporting and stuff, but why the fuck should I care? They didn't have any real impact with that book. The only real impact comes when Bonds is officially tested and suspended, which I am sure he soon will be, but until then, I don't give a shit about this weekly speculation.

It's been rumored now. But according to Yanks. GM Brian Cashman, they are ready to make a run for Roger Clemens.

Here's the story.

I would be shocked if they didn't. If there is one team that is makes sense for Rocket to play for, it is the Yankees, and if he doesn't randomly fall off, he would instantly make them the favorites for the WS...in 1999, probably in 2007 too.

A TPWW poster put a different perspective on this last fall. He was pointing out how if the Mets never made that trade, the change in management that brough in Beltran, Delgado, Pedro, Lo Duca, etc. would not have been in place.

Dunno, think its a unique perspective.

Well that puts you in the minority. This man is most likely going to break the greatest record in all of sport. He's big news, what's going on with the circus of his life is equally big news. I'm sick of it, tons of people claim they're sick of it, yet enough people can still make money and ratings off this spectacle.

If he is guilty, he is going to be punished. Having a spasm everytime somebody leaks some information is a bit overkill. There is reason to be pissed off, but all we have in talking points to this point. Somebody get solid evidence, convict him, and take his records away. That is all that matters.
