But Who Will Sign the Parker Bros.?

in White Sox Rumors

After a sleepy two weeks over the holidays, baseball kicked back into off-season action Monday.
-
Milton Bradley will reportedly sign with the Cubs despite the fact that they still reside in the National League.
I really wanted to include the Choi Hoon cartoon which featured Angry Milton waving the bucket of balls over his head in every cell, but I couldn't find it. A half-hour of internet searching yields results. Hoon's cartoons can be found here.
- Unlike the perpetually angry and injured Bradley, Pat Burrell will switch leagues to take on a DH role with the Rays. The two contracts combine for a total of 5/$46M (about $9M per annum), compared to the $11.5M Jermaine Dye is owed this season. Burrell and Bradley share a similar skill set with JD, the offensive minded (if a bit more OBP-driven) corner outfielder who would be better off at DH for one reason or another. It doesn't take much insight to figure out why the Sox were unable to unload Jermaine Dye for any value.
- Kenny Williams, "through a spokesman," officially shot down the seemingly ludicrous Floyd-for-Roberts rumor.
- Scott Gregor pisses on the Jon Garland To Return campfire.
But he does find time to bring up the names Freddy Garcia (maybe, because I think he'll be really cheap), Carl Pavano (No), and Paul Byrd (Yes, but that's only because [Starter Candidate 5] throws about as well as Terrelle Pryor) as possible bargain free agents for the not-quite-ready-for-prime-time Sox rotation.You can pretty much forget about another free agent, Jon Garland, as long as Ozzie’s in the dugout. They never got along before Garland was traded to the Angels last off-season, so that bridge has been torched.
- One name that I would rather bring in ahead of all of those options, Pedro Martinez, is the subject of some dubiously unsubstantiated rumors regarding the Sox, which I point to only because it's about time we had a rumor on the front page that I like. In reality, Pedro is contemplating offers from 4 teams, two in each league.

No way
I don’t see this happening.
Per Rosenthal:
Perhaps because of the cool market for his services, Orlando Cabrera is willing to play second base. The Yankees did not have interest.
"Jenks, who was never afraid to say "no" to a hamburger..."
he is 34 next season.
any team that was considering signing him for more than one season would have to at least consider that he’s going to be a 2b at the end of the contract. an adjustment in expectations from cabrera could yield a longer, albeit less lucrative, contract based upon this.
I don't know - with his blood feud with Renteria
I bet he doesn’t go to 2B until Edgar does, or is gone. Pride. Matters.

what do you think cabrera would be worth to a team with an incumbent SS who is as good or better than cabrera but a 2b who isn't and none in the pipeline?
at the very least, one would offer more years.
I'd agree about the years
Not sure anyone would give that high of a monetary contract to cabrera to play 2B, plus give up a high draft pick.

i might be willing to go four years.
assuming i’m not paying SS money. it’s the classic guaranteed cash dilemma. say, $22M for two or $35M for four? and if my first round pick is protected, i don’t really care about the pick.
Wow, that much?
I’m thinking he is going to get a one or two year deal from the Royals or Nats (both protected picks, I think)…for about $8 mil annually. I’d be surprised if he gets more $$ than that per year.

one would have to guess at roster construction
but i’d use getz at 2b and move alexei to center. so basically whatever you think the difference is between owens et al and alexei in center. of course, it’s probably more likely that alexei stayed at 2b and owens was in center. in the latter case, the better wouldn’t be as much.
you think Alexei can be average in CF?
anything to keep Owens out of CF though really.
Sober, I was appalled at the women. Drunk I was told I danced with them all.
Nope -
I think for a period he can make up for instinct with physical ability… but I think overall he would fall short. He’d never be a Rob M. or Griffrey of last season though.
Though I agree – anything to keep Jessie out of center… btw – Pods is available!

damn you vesting options!!!!
The Oakland Athletics and free agent first baseman and designated hitter Jason Giambi are on the verge of agreeing on a one-year deal with an option for 2010, sources told ESPN The Magazine’s Buster Olney.
The deal would pay Giambi, who started his major league career in Oakland, $5.25 million in 2009 with a $4 million base salary for the option year in 2010. The second year would also provide for a $1.25 million buyout.
Seems fair
why are you upset with the 2010 option?

the comeuppance on thome is quite steep this year.
of course, the very nature of vesting options is that you’re paying a good part of it for past performance so it probably helps blunt the blow to think of some of it as deferred compensation.
True
but it sure hurts when you are paying a large sum for a year that could be a very down year.

Sox Centerfield
Freddie Garcia is an option as long as he is married to Ozzie’s niece. Anyone in the room think Rocco Baldelli solves the Sox problems in center. He fits the profile: History of injuries, underachiever, etc. Probably can be picked up cheap.
Chip Ramsey
I like Baldelli
and I think he would be a great option. Not sure how cheap though. I wouldn’t mind Mulder getting a look for a year if his shoulder checked out.

German billionaire kills self, family saysStory Highlights
Adolf Merckle was No. 94 on Forbes list of world’s richest people
(CNN) — German billionaire Adolf Merckle, one of the richest men in the world, committed suicide Monday after his business empire got into trouble in the wake of the international financial crisis, Merckle’s family said Tuesday in a statement.
Merckle, 74, was hit by a train in the southwestern town of Ulm, police said.
His family said the economic crisis had “broken” Merckle.
He was number 94 on the Forbes list of the world’s richest people, with a net worth estimated at $9.2 billion.

Williams did admit to the Sun-Times in May that he inquired about Roberts and the asking price at that time was Alexei Ramirez, Josh Fields and either John Danks or Floyd. He obviously said no thanks.

Andy McPhail is out of his fucking mind.
I am going to laugh when Andy can’t trade him and gets nothing. Now, that is holding onto your pocket aces for too long!
So, if I am reading the two options correctly . . .
we can either a) keep dye or b) trade dye . . . is that you Phil Rogers?

I'da taken a flier on him. Not for $1.5MM, but WTF.
His first couple of games back he looked pretty good. Interesting that B-R has his stats compared to Jose Contreras (#10).

$1.5 mil guaranteed?
2:21pm: Crasnick says the Indians signed Pavano to a one-year deal. He gets $1.5MM guaranteed plus another $5.3MM in possible incentives, according to Troy Renck.

re: floyd-roberts
TUESDAY, 11:31am: Jon Heyman’s take on this does not seem to gel with the info the White Sox put out there about not talking to the Orioles:
The trade talks between the Orioles and White Sox regarding excellent leadoff hitter Brian Roberts stalled over Baltimore’s request for at least one player in addition to young starting pitcher Gavin Floyd. "They wanted Floyd plus,’’ one person familiar with the talks said.

Milton Bradley made a Mr. T board game.
This game is based on the mid-80’s cartoon of the same name, where Mr. T coached a gymnastics team made up of teens (who also used their gymnastics to fight crime).
Mr. T’s Gymnastics Team has to get to the airport before the clock runs out (and presumably the flight leaves). Each member of the team has three errands they have to complete – pick up their gym suit from the dry cleaners, say goodbye to the team mascot, stop by the police station to report a crime and so on. Along the way, players can land on spaces with red stars that inflict random punishments and rewards on them.
Only through clever use of the team bus and careful planning to get from errand to errand can the player beat the rest of the team to the plane.
from here

it's amazing what politicians can talk themselves into
Illinois Secretary of State Jesse White said this morning he has been made “the fall guy” by the U.S. Senate, which he said is using him as an excuse to not seat Roland Burris.
“They could have seated him without my signature; my signature is not required,” he told WGN-AM 720’s John Williams.
The Senate barrred Burris Tuesday, saying he lacked proper credentials because his appointment was not signed by White.
But White said today, “My signature is mostly ceremonial, rather than a point of law.”
“They played a little bit of a game with [Burris] yesterday,” he added.
Asked by Williams if he had been made “the fall guy,” White said, “You’re absolutely correct.”
White said he had pledged, shortly after Gov. Rod Blagojevich was accused of trying to make a deal for his appointment to the Senate seat, to not sign off on anyone selected by Blagojevich. And he said he will continue to honor that pledge unless ordered otherwise by a court.
Yet at the same time he said he thought Burris should be admitted to the Senate and said he had the highest possible regard for him. He predicted Burris eventually will be seated.

so basically white is grand-standing and we get to foot the bill for this to go to court. wonderful.
