Second baseman if Luis Castillo can be traded. Rotation help. Eighth-inning reliever. Second lefthander in the bullpen to pair with Pedro Feliciano. Yes, I like the simple idea of getting 20 home runs [...]

Earlier this week, I provided some thoughts on what the New York Yankees should look to do in order to improve this offseason.

The Padres maybe looking to move some players that might interest the Mets. San Diego currently has two third baseman who are both arbitration eligible, they could end up moving one of them to save some money. Either player could interest the Mets despite having a franchise player at third. Kevin Kouzmanoff is a gold glove caliber 3B who I believe with those defensive skills could transition to 1B...

The Cubs have traded RHP Aaron Heilman to the Arizona Diamondbacks for two minor leaguers, LHP Scott Maine and 1B Ryne White. No one on the Cubs or their fans is probably gonna miss Heilman so I won't waste much space on him, but it was a good way for the Cubs to get something for a guy that was probably a good bet to get non-tendered. White's a local boy that went to high school at St. Rita, not...

Here are a few stories worthy of discussion today Around the Yankee Universe. Infielder Mark DeRosa's glove could be good fit Mark Feinsand of the New York Daily News is suggesting that the Yankees pursue DeRosa, the veteran utility man. If the Yankees bring back Johnny Damon , DeRosa would be a good fit because he could play left field on days when Damon serves as the designated hitter. DeRosa, who...

by Knox Bardeen Filed under: Phillies , NL East Footprints in the Snow is FanHouse's look at the paths to be forged by MLB teams this winter as they look ahead to 2010. Philadelphia Phillies general manager Ruben Amaro made it a point not to bring back the exact same lineup in 2009 after winning the World Series in 2008.
