Daniel Murphy and Tobi Stoner will play for Leones del Escogido this winter, according to the team’s website, here.

thanks to Yohel for the link

when these links in Spanish are sent to me, my favorite part is seeing how Babelfish translates them… for instance, the lead sentence from the above link translates as follows:

“The general management of the Selected Baseball Club announced the hiring of the gardener and inicialista Daniel Murphy, of the Meters of New York.”

let’s go meters, clap, clap, clap-clap-clap…

wonder if hes playing 1B, or 2B which has been speculated of late since he was seen taking grounders at 2B occasionally

I DONT CARE WHAT LEAGUE HE PLAYS IN as long as it is at second base!!!!

don’t shoot the messenger…

word is that he will play 1B/DH.

He would be a tough sell at 2B even with Oberkfel managing the team, middle infielders grow on trees down there ;)
