Made it's debut today! Are you guys in Canada able to get this?

Hot Stove Live looks like it has a lot of potential for an every night show. Good to see Harold Reynolds on the air again.

If anyone was wondering where Hazel Mae landed, you can find her on the MLB Network...

ESPN reports that John Smoltz and the Red Sox have come to terms on an agreement.

Yikes.

man, I really like Smoltz, too. Just doesn't seem right for him to end his career anywhere but Atlanta.

Michael Young has asked to be traded. Can Wells convince ownership to trade for his friend?

I read somewhere that the White Sox and Rangers are discussing a Dye + for Young deal.

The acquisition of Mark Teixeira further clogged the Yankee roster with outfield/DH types. Hideki Matsui, Johnny Damon, Nick Swisher, Xavier Nady, Brett Gardner and Melky Cabrera will all do battle in Spring Training in hopes of landing significant time in the outfield or at DH.

(VIA MLBTR)

So no, not Manny related. Giants are the closest to biting, but the contract is wierd. 1 Year with 3 option years (each extra year has its own option from what I understand). No one wants to give Boras his cash.

Torre's coming out with a "tell-all" book of sorts:

Quote:
Joe Torre takes some harsh swings at Alex Rodriguez, Brian Cashman and the New York Yankees in a book due out early next month, according to New York newspaper reports.

"The Yankee Years" reveals that Rodriguez was called "A-Fraud" by his teammates and the star slugger developed an obsession with shortstop Derek Jeter, the New York Post and the Daily News reported Sunday
