And the Major League Baseball season has truly started. My Yankees played their first game today and won 6-1. Alex Rodriguez homered in his 2nd bat and heard on SportsCenter that he got a standing ovation!
Andy Marte, once top prospect from 2004-06, has cleared waivers and will stay with the Indians triple A team.
Duaner Sanchez may be cut by April 1. His fastball has dipped below 90 MPH and cutting him would save the Mets seventy five percent of his contract and only need to pay him under 500K.
Buster Olney thinks the biggest thing keeping teams away from Manny Ramirez was his attitude in Boston. I think it is his monetary demands, but I am sure it is a mix of both sides.
Joe Borowski has retired after a long career. He was not signed this season and choose to hang up the spikes.
The Rangers and Josh Hamilton are working a contract extension hopefully. He has really only had 2 years MLB experience so the contract should be around 4-5 years for under 50 MM. However, since he is very old for arbitration due to his case, I think he should test the market and get his huge contract now if he repeats next year.
