What The Orioles Got In The Bedard Trade

So, it took a few weeks, but the Baltimore Orioles and Seattle Mariners finally took care of the exchange for starting pitcher Erik Bedard.

What the Twins Got in the Santana Deal

We all know what the Mets got when they acquired Johan Santana this week.  They got baseball’s best pitcher.  And, the Phillies and MVP Jimmy Rollins are now looking up at their arch rivals again regardless of who Jimmy thinks is the team to beat.  Johan is now with one of the best teams in [...]

Johan Santana, the Mets trade, and fantasy baseball hype

Your man BatBoy BeeZee jumped the gun a little bit on the whole Erik Bedard to Seattle deal. Johan Santana, however, is officially on his way to the Mets.

Albert Pujols: Elbow injury dropping fantasy value?

For an article detailing Albert Pujols‘ 2008 season and his status as a fantasy baseball MVP, check out FantasyBaseballDugout.com.
It’s hard to argue against Albert Pujols being one of fantasy baseball’s legitimate super studs.
All the same, his numbers last season were down significantly from the previous two, and I have to wonder if his drop off [...]

Robinson Cano: Mo’ Money, No Problems

The New York Yankees’ signing of Robinson Cano on Thursday was a bit of a change for the organization, which generally avoids paying its younger players.
The times, they are a-changin’. This is a major move for the Yankees, who have stuck to their guns in developing talent through their farm system instead of trading off [...]

The day in MLB transactions…

Royals sign Brett Tomko for 1-year and $3 million: Good for Tomko. Dude got 3-mil to be the 4th or 5th man on KC… a nice payday for a no-pressure pitching gig.
On a sidenote, Ballparkbob was in negotiations with the Royals until last evening on a two-year deal somewhere in the $4-million range, but the [...]
