Who else loves the off-season?
To open up the off-season, Kenny Williams made a move for a third baseman. Mark Teahen was acquired from Kansas City for Chris Getz and Josh Fields. Essentially, Williams moved a replacement level second baseman and a 28 year-old no glove, no bat clogger for a player from the Royals. Unfortunately, that guy is Mark Teahen.
For years, I have said that Kenny Williams is an overrated general manager. His last few moves have solidified my argument. Read the rest of this entry »
2009 MLB Off-Season Underway…

JJ Hardy is one of the first players moved this off-season
The Yankees earned their 27th World Series on Wednesday, and the baseball season is over, just in terms of games played. MLB’s “off-season” isn’t “off” by any means with player options and trades underway, with free agency coming up. Some things to keep in mind…for 15 days after the World Series ends, teams have exclusive rights to their own free agents. Players can talk with other teams, but only in general terms. The GMs will meet from November 9th-11th in Chicago.
Since Wednesday, some trades have been made and a couple caught my attention.
1. White Sox getting Mark Teahan from Royals for Chris Getz and Josh Fields
2. Brewers receiving Carlos Gomez from Twins for JJ Hardy

Is Alex Rios headed to the South Side?
After months of speculation (and after the Trade Deadline), the Toronto Blue Jays are once again rumored to be making a big move. However, it’s not Roy Halladay that the Jays are shopping. This time around, the Blue Jays put outfielder Alex Rios on waivers. It was announced yesterday that Rios was claimed by an unnamed team. After much speculation, it appears that the Chicago White Sox were the team that put in a claim on Rios. So, what exactly is Kenny Williams playing at here?
