The Houston Astros and Ivan Rodriguez have agreed to a 1-year deal worth $1.5 million. Pudge, who will start for the Astros (I guess J.R. Towles still isn’t ready), could possibly make another $1.5 million in bonus incentives.
The following is my best guess starting roster for the 2009 Trenton Thunder to begin the year.

1st Base: Chris Malec
2nd Base: Damon Sublett
Shortstop: Eduardo Nunez

The Yankees just got some good news about the injuries to Robinson Cano and Damaso Marte, as Peter Abraham is reporting that neither has any structural damage. Cano has bursitis, while Marte is suffering from inflammation. That sound that you hear is an exhale from Brian Cashman. Expect to hear about some more cuts [...]
So long Trip Aces. You had your chance last year. The moniker for this year’s starting rotation is “The Five Musketeers” according to the NY Post’s Joel Sherman. Why the Five Musketeers, you ask? Apparently, a certain comradery has developed between the group, to the point where they typically gather together to watch [...]
Robinson Cano and Damaso Marte will have their MRIs today. More on the results, later.
