Baseball Offseason Acquisitions/Trades

Braves sign Takashi Saito.................

:eh:

 

[northcutt_fan]

He was solid with the Dodgers before arm problems.

Cubbies traded Jake Fox, Aaron Miles & $$$ to the A's for three minor leaguers :scratch: ... Miles makes sense because he's terrible, but Fox was a solid player and a Cubbie favorite ...

 

[DTownTigers87]

Only 3 players accepted arbitration...

Rafael Soriano (Braves), Carl Pavano (Twins), and Rafael Betancourt (Rockies).

Brad Penny reaches a deal with the Cardinals...

Nats signed Pudge, and got Brian Bruney from the Yankees for a PTBNL...

Tigers re-sign SS Adam Everett. Trade CRAPPY pitcher Clay Rapada to the Rangers..

Ryne Sandberg is now the Manager for the Iowa Cubs in the PCL.

Tigers/Yankees/Dbacks Deal
Not certain if it will go down but here is the details..
Tigers get: Max Scherzer from the Dbacks, Austin Jackson and Phil Coke from the Yankees.
Yankees get: Curtis Granderson (Tigers) and one or two prospects from the Dbacks.
Dbacks get: Edwin Jackson (Tigers) and Ian Kennedy from the Yankees.

Tigers would be dumb to trade Granderson...

EDIT- 1:57 PM. EST
Nick Pietruszkiewicz:
From Buster: The sides are on the verge of wrapping up the Granderson deal.

The Yankmes are getting the better end of this deal all around.

Good grief cold someone tell the Dodgers that all the pitchers worth a damn are flying off the FA list? We are months away and I already see the season going down the crapper. I wish mcCourt would just face fact and sell the team.
