Tony3 Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 1. http://mlb.mlb.com/NASApp/mlb/news/article...t=.jsp&c_id=mlb Camp invites: As expected, Reds top pitching prospect Homer Bailey was among 12 non-roster players to receive invitations to big-league Spring Training. Besides Bailey, the other players invited already in the organization were left-handed pitcher Michael Gosling, catcher Ryan Hanigan and infielder Paul Janish. Signed to Minor League contracts and invited to camp were right-handed pitchers Victor Santos and Tom Shearn, left-handed pitcher Jason Kershner, catchers Dan Conway, Ryan Jorgensen and Miguel Perez, infielder Anderson Machado and outfielder Dewayne Wise.

cybernetic Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 The Jays have recieved another option year on RHP Dustin McGowan meaning he does not have to be carried on the MLB roster. This means he will likely join the AAA rotation to start the season unless he breaks camp out of ST. This is a special injury thing since he missed over a year due to Tommy John surgery and recovery. As far as I know they didn't get the same on RHP Francisco Rosario who also lost development time due to Tommy John surgery but he lost less time. Also as it seems right now if the Jays don't sign a low risk/high reward guy to fill the 3rd or 4th spot such as Tony Armas Jr or Tomo Ohka which are the latest rumored targets. Then it now seems more likely that Josh Towers will win the 5th spot in the rotation with Shaun Marcum taking the 4th. Casey Janssen and Dustin McGowan would then join the AAA rotation for Syracuse.

cybernetic Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 Looking at the Jays non-roster invitees list, it appears they re-signed Brian Wolfe to a minor league contract unless he's just an unsigned player invited to spring training I found confirmation on Wolfe. He was re-signed to a minor league deal by the Jays on Oct. 6th Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dowie Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 Would you say that the chances are way less than 25% that the hex id's will be corrected in order for the rosters to be transferred to the ps2.When your next set comes out?

TwentySeven Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 Tigers re-signed LHP Bobby Seay to a minor league contract and invited him to spring training. White Sox GM Ken Williams is confident that Juan Uribe will put his legal troubles behind him and report to spring training on time. Free agent Karim Garcia has agreed to terms with the Phillies on a minor league deal, according to his agent. Johan Santana can kick in a no-trade clause for 2008 by finishing in the top three in AL Cy Young balloting again this season. Jason Johnson has reportedly agreed to terms with the Seibu Lions of Japan on a one-year, $3 million contract. Blue Jays agreed to terms with RHP Jason Frasor on a one-year, $825,000 contract. The Blue Jays have reportedly come to terms with free agent John Thomson on a one-year, $500,000 contract. Rockies signed catcher Javy Lopez to a non-guarenteed Spring Training one-year, $750,000 contract. He will get an invite to ST, but if cut before ST ends, he loses the contract and is a FA Blue Jays designated infielder Rob Cosby for assignment.

cybernetic Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 What these means as far as Jays lineups: - John Thomson becomes the #3 starter bumping Chacin and Marcum to 4 and 5 respectively - Josh Towers goes back to AAA - Either Vermilyea or Gonzalez get bumped to AA - I'd put Wolfe back in A Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sfgiantsflgators Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 Worrell retires (Rotoworld) Giants announced the retirement of RHP Tim Worrell. It's good news for the Giants that they'll get out of paying him an additional $2 million after GM Brian Sabean burdened the organization with his two-year, $4 million contract last winter. Worrell had a 7.52 ERA in 20 1/3 innings before undergoing shoulder surgery last year. The 39-year-old was expected to be ready for spring training, but he's chosen to call it a career rather than continue his rehab. The Giants could redirect his money into a proposal for another reliever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cybernetic Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 Jays are close to signing 1B Lyle Overbay to a three-year extension. He's eligible for arbitration and the Jays want to lock him up to a deal before then. The Jays could try signing him for about $21 million for three years or $30 million for four.
