Waiting to see the option money, but I was pretty close.Gordon's deal with the Royals is 4 years, $37.5 million with a 2016 option.

LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. Some fans of Brian McCanns old-school look behind the plate have been in a dither since the Braves catchers recent switch to the hockey goalie-style mask that so many catchers wear today. Gone is the metal mask and backward batting helmet he wore before.
McCann said the change was made strictly for function and not aesthetics
I tried [the hockey-style mask] the other day and liked the vision out of it, said the six-time All-Star. The bars are closer to your face and you can see better.
He said its lighter and you get more breeze to your face. So its better all the way around. In the front its all open.
McCann tried the goalie mask a few years ago when he had vision problems and briefly wore glasses while playing.
But I didnt really give it a chance, he said.
This time, hes got no plans to revert back to the traditional mask.
Dude. You are a Texas Rangers and Atlanta Braves fan.
How do you live with this? How can you walk outside with your Livan Hernandez Braves jersey while you're wearing a Rangers cap.
Can we get jesus back?Pineda got wrecked again? Interesting.

I hope the best of both of them, but I forsee Montero feeling alot of the pressure that Smoak did last year. I know Smoak had alot of issues, but I think the pressure also influenced him alittle. Montero has a lot of pressure on him, especially considering he was traded for a top of the rotation starter.
:jncNo. He was traded for your sins.
So he's going to ressurect with the yankees when he's a free agent? But that's too far away.No. He was traded for your sins.
oh great, now Pineda has a shoulder injury
What kind of shoulder injury?
'soreness behind his right shoulder'
nothing more yet
Ffsoh great, now Pineda has a shoulder injury

Santana-esque.
Speaking of giant busts, is Matsuzaka going to play ever again?
On target for July. If you believe Bobby's beautiful smile, June.
oh great, now Pineda has a shoulder injury
swoon, you know I can't stop loving him. I'm totally going to be a Red Sox fan this year.
Hehe. Jack Z the genius!
probably some bullshit to get Pettite in the rotation. first he breaks Joba's ankle and now did something to Pineda. bullshit! dammit Cashman, just because Pettite has pictures of your dick doesn't mean you have to do whatever he wants!

Rockies have purchased the contract of Jamie Moyer. Moyer has made the rotation and will start the second game of the season.
HE DID IT!
lolIf Jamie Moyer was on the Rockies in their inaugural year (1993), he would've still been older than 22 of their 25 pitchers that played that year.
Question...
Do trades really happen like they do in the movie MONEYBALL?
Just...quick calls, bang you're done?
That is crazy.
Well it was a documentary
Right.
But seriously...do they go down that way sometimes? Just seems like you'd deliberate over a decision like that. But I'm not sure...all I have to go by is this and Little Big League.

Love it. JP Arencibia on twitter:

Via Marc Carig, Joe Girardi announced the Yankees’ Opening Day rotation. CC Sabathia and Hiroki Kuroda will start games one and two as expected, and they’ll be followed by Phil Hughes, Ivan Nova, and Freddy Garcia in order. Michael Pineda is starting the year on the disabled list with shoulder inflammation.
First Jay Buhner, now this!
