From Rotoworld...Newsday talking about the Mets moving Ike or Duda Star Ledger...maybe a one year incentive laden signing of Johan Santana.. This had better be good, the announcement is breaking into dinner time... -
I was thinking of free agent Matt Garza but this tease is making me giddy...
-
Some scenarios include Ike going to Baltimore. It is starting to feel like Ike Davis is borderline unmoveable. Regarding J.J. Hardy? meh....

Which it isn't, because you won't invest. So we return to the if-not-him-then-who? territory. But, well, impact free agents all tend to be old-but-expensive. High performance but high mileage. Cano's the young one out there, and he's all about many many years. One might assume there's a trade or two on the table too. So if Granderson is the big fish they reel in, it could well be part of some broader array of (hopefully improvement-generating) moves. A big key to looking at the fourth year is that his injuries have not been of the breakdown-from-continual-usage variety. On the other hand, the dance chair thing doesn't move me. If Granderson comes aboard we can likely kiss Muffy goodbye...

Granderson sid he enjoyed the salmon at lunch...

Of course, he's also a proven bed-shitter in New York. Benjamin Grimm wrote: I'd be okay with a fourth year for Granderson. It's not ideal, but it seems that you have to take a risk on the back end of a contract to land some free agents. Sometimes it kills you, but sometimes it doesn't. You just have to hope that the early years of the contract are good enough to offset the last year or so. But, see, that makes sense if you're not just hoping but planning to contend over the course of those first two years. Whatever Granderson contributes-- assuming it's not a highly-degraded version of what he's contributed over the last 2-3 years-- probably won't be the difference between a playoff spot and no playoff spot. And that makes eating that smelly, smelly back end so much more repugnant. The dance chairs are filling..I suggest you get with the Granderson vibe..ok?? lol

Red Sox may pursue Granderson per Crasnick ESPN

Frayed Knot wrote: Ceetar wrote: our condition being "having one already" or "not likely to score enough runs to close games"? More the former than the latter. But there's also the concept of having a limited budget with other holes to fill. And then there's the whole thing about the erratic nature of closers, the relatively short span of greatness even the good ones tend to have, the marginal difference between the edge a supposedly "great" one will give you as compared to just a decent one and the difficulty in predicting which will be which, and so on. As I talked about towards the end of the year-long Adventures in Closerland thread, a number of what turned out to be the top closers in 2013 didn't even start out the year with that job in the same way that some of the ones who started there didn't finish. And that a team even keeping the same closer for more than a year or two at a time is more the exception than the rule. Parnell et al should do just fine...

Twitter says Beltran has a 3/$48M offer on the table somewhere (Seattle?), apparently. 3/48 if true is not tough to beat Jeff...
