Lots of Offseason Baseball Moves
Usually I wait until the end of the week to discuss what teams have done over the week but there have been a lot of signings, and roster moves over the last two or three days. So here is the run down of things.
-Oakland A’s agreed to terms with OF Josh Willingham, OF Conor Jackson, LHP Dallas Braden and 3B Kevin Kouzmanoff on one-year contracts. Also agreed to terms with LHP Brian Fuentes on a two-year contract.
-Atlanta Braves agreed to terms with RHP Jair Jurrjens, RHP Peter Moylan, LHP Eric O’Flaherty and LF Martin Prado on one-year contracts.
Baltimore Orioles agreed to terms with SS J.J. Hardy, OF Adam Jones, OF Felix Pie and RHP Jim Johnson on one-year contracts.
-Milwaukee agreed to terms with 1B Prince Fielder and LHP Manny Parra on one-year contracts.
-Boston Red Sox agreed to terms with RHP Jonathan Papelbon and CF Jacoby Ellsbury on one-year contracts.
-Detroit Tigers designate RHP Armando Galarraga for assignment.
-Cincinnati Red agreed to terms with 1B Joey Votto on a three-year contract.
-Tampa Bay Rays agreed to terms with RHP Kyle Farnsworth on a one-year contract.
So as you can see there has been a lot of wheeling and dealing going as of late. Spring Training is coming very soon so expect a lot more signings to be made of the next few weeks. I will keep you posted.
