cybernetic Posted January 24, 2007 Share Posted January 24, 2007 The Ohka deal is one-year for $1.5M.. pencil him in as the 5th starter. The deal is still pending a physical but that should be out of the way by the end of the week. Marcum will join the Syracuse rotation Ramirez down to AA (again) and Litsch back to High A That's what I think now, although Marcum may start in the bullpen in the majors. We'll see when they break S.T. Jays also signed minor league free agents RP Jesse Carlson and 1B Manuel Rodriguez to a minor league deals. Carlson will likely report to Syracuse (AAA) and Rodriguez to Dunedin (A). Rodriguez is not in your rosters by the way. I'd send down Josh Banks and put him in the AA bullpen to make room for Carlson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoubleD Posted January 24, 2007 Share Posted January 24, 2007 Hey Totte, I'm sure posts like this are really annoying and I do appologize for that. However, when is the next release date expected? This isn't meant in a "hurry up" manner (I understand the difficulty and time-consumming process it takes), but rather an "inquiring mind" manner. I understand you can't put an exact date on it, but an expected area would be nice (i.e. soon [next month or so], not until the start of spring training/regular season, ect.). I'd also try and search the thread myself to find the answer, but considering all the posts this thread gets with roster updates, it'd be EXTREMELY difficult and time consuming to find the answer. Thanks for all your hard work :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TwentySeven Posted January 24, 2007 Share Posted January 24, 2007 The Yankees asked Robinson Cano to hand over his No. 22 in case free agent Roger Clemens rejoin the team, a request he complied to. He will wear 24. Indians manager Eric Wedge sees his team carrying only one backup infielder, leaving room for Ryan Garko on the bench. If Cleveland carries two backup infielder, Victor Martinez would likely play first against lefties. If they go with one, that will be Garko's role. Hector Luna looks like the leading candidate to play behind Jhonny Peralta and Josh Barfield. Joe Inglett, Luis Rivas, Keith Ginter and Mike Rouse will also be in the running. Athletics acquired RHP David Shafer and a player to be named from the Reds for RHP Kirk Saarloos and a player to be named. Reds signed infielder Mark Bellhorn to a minor league contract and invited him to spring training. Carlos Delgado said he could miss a few games at the start of the regular season for the birth of his child. Pirates signed outfielder Luis Matos to a minor league contract and invited him to spring training - he will likely be the fifth outfielder if Jody Gerut is still on the DL to start the season. His addition practically guarantees that Rajai Davis and Chris Aguila will open the year in Triple-A. Blue Jays agreed to terms with RHP Tomo Ohka, who had been with the Brewers, on a one-year, $1.5 million contract. http://mlb.mlb.com/NASApp/mlb/news/article...e2006&fext=.jsp -Darin Erstad has reportedly signed a contract with the White Sox w/ a 2008 option -S-Pod will likely start the season on the DL. -Erstad will compete with Brian Anderson for starting time in center field if Podsednik returns healthy during Spring Training and is ready to go for the start of the regular season. Rookie outfielders Ryan Sweeney and Jerry Owens also could figure into the overall mix, depending on Podsednik's recovery period. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cybernetic Posted January 24, 2007 Share Posted January 24, 2007 Darin Erstad will sign a one-year deal with the White Sox, MLB.com reports. Dodgers signed (officially) RHP Rudy Seanez to a minor league contract. Phillies agreed to terms with RHP Antonio Alfonseca on a one-year deal. Dodgers signed infielder Fernando Tatis to a minor league contract and invited him to spring training. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for all your hard work Don't know if you read back the x couple of pages to find the answer but to sum up I'm still aiming for Sunday as a probable release date for a beta. The lineups/rotations would obviously be fucked up but still, it's a new update Standard and Plus editions would be made available for PC. No console conversion for the beta.

herky Posted January 24, 2007 Share Posted January 24, 2007 Here is some info on the Cubs players invited to spring training according to North Side Baseball.

The righty made 13 starts for Daytona, going 4-0 with a 2.30 ERA (20 ER/78.1 IP) while striking out 80 batters and only issuing 21 walks. He went 7-5 at West Tenn with an ERA of 2.71 (26 ER/86.1 IP) and struck out 91 batters in his third professional year. Gallagher has posted a 26-12 career record with a 2.65 ERA (103 ER/350.1 IP). Adam Harben, 23, spent the 2006 season at the Double-A level in the Minnesota Twins' organization, appearing in 29 games, 22 of which were starts. He compiled a 4-9 record with a 3.96 ERA (54 ER/122.2 IP) including one complete game and one save. The right-handed hurler has a career record of 32-28 over five seasons with a 3.40 ERA (194 ER/513.1 IP). Ruan O'Malley, 26, spent the majority of 2006 with Triple-A Iowa. The left-hander appeared in 26 games (19 starts), going 7-7 with a 4.08 ERA (56 ER/123.2 IP). O'Malley made his Major League debut a memorable one after he tossed 8.0 shutout innings in a 1-0 win August 16 at Houston. He made one more start for the Cubs, but left the game early and eventually landed on the disabled list August 23 with a strained left elbow. Carmen Pignatiello, 24, saw the majority of his 2006 season spent in Double-A West Tenn in his seventh year in the Cubs' farm system. The southpaw made 38 appearances (one start) finishing with a 2.69 ERA (18 ER/ 60.1 IP) and a 3-1 record. He struck out 74 while issuing 19 walks. He also appeared in eight games for Triple-A Iowa, posting a 2.70 ERA (2 ER/6.2 IP). His combined 46 games were a career high. Randy Wells, 24, started 2006 with Double-A West Tenn before ending the season with Triple-A Iowa. While with West Tenn, he appeared in 12 games, all of them starts, posting a modest ERA of 1.59 (11 ER/62.1 IP) with 54 strikeouts and a career-low .199 batting average against (45-for-226). Wells made 13 appearances (12 starts) for Iowa where he compiled a record of 5-5 with a 4.96 ERA (38 ER/69.0 IP). Jake Fox, 24, split his 2006 season between Single-A Daytona and Double-A West Tenn in his fourth season in the Cubs' farm system. The backstop was named to the Midseason Florida State League All-Star Game and batted .313 (78-for-249) with 16 home runs and 61 RBI in 66 games for Daytona before his promotion to West Tenn. The Cubs third round pick in the 2003 draft, Fox has a .284 batting average (349-for-1,228) in 345 games. Mike Kinkade, 33, hit .328 (125-for-381) with four home runs and 50 RBI in 106 games for Triple-A Albuquerque in the Florida Marlins' farms system in 2006. The .328 clip ranked third in the Pacific Coast League. The infielder has a .256 career batting average (110-for-429) in 222 Major League contests with the New York Mets (1998-2000), Baltimore (2000-2001) and the Los Angeles Dodgers (2002-2003). Casey McGehee, 24, enters his fifth season in the Cubs' organization after he was selected by Chicago in the 10th round of the 2003 draft. Last season, he set career-highs with 135 games played, 497 at-bats, 139 hits and 11 home runs for Triple-A Iowa. McGehee was a 2005 Midseason Southern League All-Star with Double-A West Tenn, going 1-for-5 with a home run and three RBI in the game. Eric Patterson, 23, split last season between Double-A West Tenn and Triple-A Iowa and was named to the Midseason Southern League All-Star team. With West Tenn, his nine triples ranked third-most in the league while his 38 steals were second. Patterson joined the I-Cubs on August 19 and hit in 14 of his 17 games played at the Triple-A level. His 46 steals between the two clubs ranked second among Cubs' minor leaguers. Tyler Colvin, 21, was the Cubs' first selection (13th overall) in the 2006 draft after a standout career with Clemson University. With Single-A Boise last season, he led the Northwest League with six triples, was second with 53 RBI and was third with 50 runs and 128 total bases. The left-handed hitter batted .314 (38-for-121) in 30 July contests and finished the year with 11 home runs. Chris Walker, 26, led the Cubs' minor league system with 50 stolen bases for Double-A West Tenn while his .292 batting average (150-for-513) ranked eighth. His 50 steals and 11 triples led the Southern League and his 150 hits were second and set a club record. From April 29-May 12, he batted .426 (26-for-61) during a 14-game hitting streak. Walker was the Cubs' sixth round pick in the 2002 draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
