News: Hot Stove update
If you’re looking for a quick roundup on some of the more prominent rumored activity in the trade and free-agent markets around the league, head over to this article by Jim Moloney at MLB.com.
Among other things, he discusses a potential trade offer from the Angels for Miguel Cabrera, Kerry Wood possibly re-signing with the Cubs despite a lot of interest elsewhere, and the Yankees pursuit of several relief pitchers, including Jeremy Affeldt, Trevor Miller and Francisco Cordero – but points out that Cordero prefers to close and not be a set-up man.
…i’m guessing the mets focus has shifted to starting pitching, but i’m curious as to what will be done about the bullpen (especially if they move Aaron Heilman in a deal for a starter). they’ve had interest in affeldt in the past, Scott Linebrink and wood are both intriguing options, obviously cordero would be worth pursuing if for some reason he can’t find a job as a closer…
