And once again, the MFYs steal the back pages from Omar, as Frankie gets but one day as headliner. Sigh. (Merged from Sabathia (Split from AP Hot Stove), 12/10/2008)
SF finally gets their man: Edgar Renteria, 2 years, $18.5 million Busy off-season for the G-men: Renteria, Howry and Affeldt and now, apparently, maybe Sabathia
]Not on the radar at all, it seems: Kerry Wood. I'm disappointed by the Mets' apparent lack of interest in any other than Fuentes or K-Rod. My preference is for Wood, or Arizona's Brandon Lyon (who'd come much, much cheaper than any of the aforementioned).
Whish side will you display? Or will it hang suspended, to crash in the wind and drive your neighbors crazy? (Mebbe you can lend it to Soupy during a Nor'easter for an outdoor noisemaker)
