The Frankman said:Tim Hudson reported to test FA market. Marquis not coming back w/ Jeff Francis pitching next year... Lackey also should be a FA and is looking for a Lowe-type deal.
FA contracts go down a year in length and a couple of million a year when the Yankees aren't involved.clemenx said:Lowe type? I haven't read anything about his price but I think he would want Burnett money.
Hey now Yanks can sign Lackey and make him their #3.CajoleJuice said:FA contracts go down a year in length and a couple of million a year when the Yankees aren't involved.

There is jack shit out there on the FA market. You need a catcher?yankeeforever2 said:The Yankees will be looking for a 3 starter no matter what Pet is doing.
This gets me salivating at what we could get for Doc in a trade now. Don't the Mets need a pitcher?SanjuroTsubaki said:There is jack shit out there on the FA market. You need a catcher?

I'm thinking the braves offer him 3 years at about 26 or 27 million.Braves pitcher Tim Hudson reiterated Wednesday that he's willing to accept a "hometown discount" to stay with the Braves, while refuting a report that he's planning to become a free agent and see what he can get on the open market.
A report on FoxSports.com, citing unnamed "major-league sources," said Hudson, "barring a last-minute, knockout offer from the Braves," planned to become a free agent.
"This makes me sound like I'm saying Screw y'all, I'm out of here,' which isn't the case at all," Hudson told the Journal-Constitution. "I've said all along that Atlanta was the place I want to be and that I'm willing to give them a hometown discount.
"I just hope when we start talking, my idea of a hometown discount and their idea of a hometown discount isn't 5 or 8 million [dollars] apart. That't the only thing that could put a wrench in the whole thing."
The Braves have a mutual $12 million option on Hudson's contract for 2010, with a $1 million buyout. If they exercise the option, he has the right to veto it and become a free agent.
Hudson, 34, went 2-1 with a 3.61 ERA in seven starts in September and October, after returning from a year-long recovery following ligament-transplant elbow surgery.
Hudson and general manager Frank Wren, who are neighbors in Peachtree City, both said in the last month of the season that they were hopeful and optimistic about the chances of working out a contract extension that would presumably include a lower annual salary than $12 million.
I don't know why Pettitte would retire, he's still an effective pitcher. I don't see him pulling a Mussina and walking away while he can still pitch.captmcblack said:The Mets have virtually nothing in the farm system.
They have to pay Lackey and friends this offseason if they want to upgrade their rotation and allow for their farm system to accumulate bodies.
RE: The Yankees rotation in 2010, they have Wang rehabbing, Joba and Hughes to move back into the rotation, and Aceves and Kennedy as viable options. They probably will tender Chad Gaudin a contract as well. Hopefully Sergio Mitre is fired into the Sun.
If Andy comes back, rotation is Sabathia, Burnett, Pettitte, Chamberlain, Hughes.
If Andy retires, it's Sabathia, Burnett, Chamberlain, Hughes, Gaudin.
When Wang comes back, if he's in form he slots right after Burnett. (Sabathia, Burnett, Wang, Chamberlain, Hughes). The Yankees have other places to take care of in their lineup, like LF.
The Red Sox will sign him for peanuts and he'll suck shit like Penny, Smoltz, Wade Miller, etc.SanjuroTsubaki said:Looking at the available ones I would expect a team to give Tim Hudson a chance as well. If his arm stays strong he could be a great acquisition.
every game at 10 est? no thank you. I would much rather have a East Coast vs. West Coast matchup.Returners said:I want to see an LA world series.
Until he goes to the NL and dominates.Dr. Strangelove said:The Red Sox will sign him for peanuts and he'll suck shit like Penny, Smoltz, Wade Miller, etc.
Fire TP and sign him please.Rudy Jaramillo, who has been the Rangers' hitting coach the past 15 seasons, turned down a one-year offer to remain with the club this morning and won't be back in 2010. An offer had been made by general manager Jon Daniels and team president Nolan Ryan late last week, and Jaramillo mulled his future over the weekend and the first two days of this week.
Jaramillo is viewed by many as the best hitting coach in the game, and he is the highest paid. The Rangers' offense didn't perform as expected in 2009, and Ryan, Daniels and manager Ron Washington all said last week that the Rangers' approach needed to be revamped to include a better understanding of situational hitting.

And the count is 0 and 2. Don't choke, guys!Red Scarlet said:Ease up on the hostility please.
you suck at knowing any MLB talent below AAA.captmcblack said:How to fix the Mets:
- have Omar Minaya and Jerry Manuel assasinated
- hire Tony Larussa and Dave Duncan
- hire Rudy Jaramillo
- sign two pitchers or 1 pitcher and one LFer/1Bman
They'll be back to September collapse level skill in no time!
