Is that the name of the new field they are working on? I should have known it was gonna be named after a big company . How much longer until Best Buy Field or Walmart stadium?

But, yeah the Twins are lookin good line up wise.

I wonder how this will affect the Twins if they give this 10 year contract to Mauer. That's kinda risky.

Don't forget to throw Thome in that Twins lineup as a spot DH with Kubal. Very formidable lineup.

O-Dawg will fit in perfectly in front of Mauer. Twins should easily repeat as division champs this year.

Definitely. I expect those RBI numbers to jump a lil higher for Mauer and Morneau with Span and O Dog setting the table in front of them.

I just looked it up and you are right. My bad, I didn't know that.

I just know that many teams name their stadiums after companies. At least the Twins have a reason to call their field that. My bad and yeah, Thome is gonna be a good addition.

Padres sign Yorvit Torrealba.

M's re-sign Erik Bedard.

And the world still waits where Johnny Damon is gonna play this season....

Mets interested in lefty Japanese reliever Hisanori Takahashi.

He has a decent screwball from what I've read...and they definitely do need a second lefty in the bullpen this year.

Would be pretty epic if Takahashi as well as fellow newcomer Ryota Igarashi are both really good out of the bullpen. Best Japanese duo since Kai En Tai.

I still really hope we can sign Damon at maybe the deadline. I think by then he will be ours. Clemens wasn't really on a team the last time the Yankees picked him up was he? The Yankees picked him up mid season if I recall. I think the same thing will happen with Damon at least I hope.

I just can't see Damon waiting until mid-season, some team will offer him something cheap before camp and he'll accept it. I mean I guess he could wait around and hope a contender suffers some injuries, but that's normally just something that pitchers do (Clemens, Pedro, and now it looks like Smoltz will do that)

I don't know with Boras as his Agent he might have to say "Go Fuck Yourself" to Scott. I really can't see any Boras client signing something "Cheap" Either way I think we might get him. If he does sign on the cheap we may be able to get him by trade by not using that many players to get him depending on who the team is. If it's a team who has a real chance at getting to the playoffs then I don't want him for the amount of talent he'll cost.

Brian Giles, Dodgers
Jim Edmonds, Brewers
B.H. Kim, Giants
Paul Lo Duca, Rockies

Can't see Giles making the roster in LA. There's no room, especially with Reed Johnson there now. And Giles was beyond bad last year. He's gotta be done.

Kim had 2 good seasons and nothing else. I don't think he has a chance.

Lo Duca at 38 probably doesn't have it in him. And even if he does the Rockies already have Iannetta and Olivo who's a pretty decent backup.

Edmonds was bad in 08 but he was the best of the group in his prime and he might be able to get a spot on name rep. And Milwaukee's CF spot is pretty underwhelming and they are loaded with right handed hitters.

When did the Dodgers pick up Reed? It must have been really recently cause I don't even remember reading that. And according to MLB Giles is still a free agent. Though you imply that he's on the team.

Is there a rumor that the Dodgers will pick up Giles?

Is there a rumor that the Dodgers will pick up Giles?
They signed Johnson last week. And Giles was signed to a minor league contract with an invitation to spring training

Yankees bring back Marcus Thames to a minor league deal to up $900K if he makes the team. We had extra money since we officially signed Randy Winn to $1.1 mil. today.

Nice little signing.

Does anyone think Damon is willing to take a pay-cut? Or do you thnk he still believes there's a buyer out there for him at his asking price? -What's his character like.

He'll take a cut if that's what it takes to get paid at all to begin with. He obviously wants his asking price, but if nobody pays it he's obviously going to take what he can get rather than 0 dollars.

His character, ha, I dunno. He said he'd never play for the Yankees and all that jazz here in Boston, and then he went there for the extra bucks.
I don't think he's a slime, or a bad dude like some guys in baseball probably are. I think he's just a meathead that's easily controlled.

After Johnny Damon hosted RAW, I'd doubt nobody would hire him.

Bobby Abreu got paid $5 mil. from the Angels cause he's scared of the wall in the outfield. Got double this pay this season cause of what he did at the plate.

I've heard the Tigers might have some interest. Ordonez and Ajax are slated to head up right and center field. Some other guy is in left. Ask our Splaya, our resident Tigers fan. Also gotta wonder if Damon can do long ball damage at U.S. Cellular.

Johnny Rocket is getting old, can't throw, can't field. He's better off getting a gig as a DH if there's any spots left. Time's running out, he'll either make his own deal out of desperation, or maybe hang 'em up.

Maybe he got dumber after launching himself at one of the walls at Fenway Park a few years ago and forgot about "hating" the Yankees

They have Guillen in Left Field for the White Sox. But, guess what they don't have a DH.

I don't think Damon is gonna hang them up. At least not for long. Remember what happened the last time Clemens played for the Yankees? I believe he wasn't playing for a team either. But we signed him mid season. I believe the Yankees or at least someone will give him a contract by mid season.

From what I am hearing around here, we are going to throw Guillen in left field. I would rather they sign Damon, and DH Guillen.

I've said this from day one, I will miss Curtis Granderson the player and the outfielder. I will not miss Curtis Granderson the player

Was reading a while back about how apparently Damon and Boras are still asking for 2 years from Detroit. Pretty amazing how much they think Damon is worth. I think Damon will sign soon for a small 1 year contract. He doesn't really have a choice. Boras is saying there is still a ton of interest in him (lol).

Also, Damon and Boras tactics with Detroit are apparently Damon brings Detroit to the favorites of the AL Central. He said he went to Boston and brought them a WS, went to NY and brought them a WS and could do the same for Detroit.

I think Damon is just a little delusional about his worth.

Mets close to inking Mike Jacobs to a minor league deal. I'll always have somewhat of a soft spot for him since I was there live when he made his first ever big league appearance by hitting a pinch-hit 3 run HR. Pretty sure AssMan said he was at that game too.
