Odds and Ends
Rotoworld has all sorts of interesting bits today:
-----
"The Rangers have offered Matt Morris a deal believed to be worth about $25 million over three years."
Run awayyyy!!!!
-----
"Alfonso Soriano said he has no intention of playing outfield for the Nationals. 'I'm going to play second base,' Soriano said."
So the Nat's might have to move him right away. The follow up discusses the possibility of trading Nick Johnson and moving Vidro to 1st. It's hard to think they would fix this problem by trading their best hitter, but after the deals they've made this year and last, I would get on the phone with them right now.
------
"A source told the Boston Herald another team that was interested in Andy Marte turned away after the Braves acknowledged the player had a tear in the ulnar collateral ligament of an elbow."
I don't know anything about injuries like this, but is it still such a steal for Boston?

Marte
Edgar Renteria isn't very good. The Braves should be happy if they get a league-average shortstop for the next three years. You never like it when the prospect going the other way is hurt, but even if Marte has to go under the knife, Boston still made out like bandits.
Ya but Boston

But its
Of course, the tear might be real serious costing him his career.
I'm a real doubter this yr for the Braves. They lost Mazzone too. They unload their top prospect, and get Renteria. Yikes.
I've been a doubter for a decade
