Paul Hoynes of the Cleveland Plain Dealer explains that the Indians would have been hesitant to offer Carl Pavano arbitration if they hadn't traded him to the Twins. After a healthy season, he could command close to $10MM if offered arbitration and the Indians are reluctant to commit that much to the righty, though they may end up bringing him back. Here's more on some free agents the Indians may consider:...

Minnesota Twins fans aren't taking too kindly to my column yesterday about how I think Joe Mauer will be a Yankee in 2011. In fact, they're up in arms over my shameless coveting of their team's best player. Imagine that. Here's the story. In "AL MVP Joe Mauer - A Future Yankee," I wrote, "Why wouldn't he want to be a Yankee? Playing for the Bombers is the stuff dreams are made of!"...

Free agent starter Rich Harden was a major topic of discussion in MLB.com's Kelly Thesier's mailbag piece today, where it was confirmed that Minnesota has had interest in acquiring the Canadian right-hander in the past and may look to do so again this winter. Thesier reports that the Twins put in a claim on Harden last August before the Cubs pulled the pitcher back off of waivers. Minnesota ended up...

Finishing with a terrible record in 2009 affords the Mets a few luxuries, the most obvious being that they will have the seventh overall pick in this year's Amateur Draft. However, also worth paying attention to, they will receive the same selection in this winter's Rule 5 Draft. Though the Rule 5 draft is essentially a swap meet of replacement level players, gems like Johan Santana , Josh Hamilton...

The Brewers re-signed rehabbing lefty Chris Capuano, according to Anthony Witrado of the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel. Capuano had his second career Tommy John surgery in May of 2008. He was non-tendered after that season and re-signed on a minor league deal, but setbacks limited him to nine minor league innings this year. The Brewers are expected to sign a pair of starters from a free agent pool that...

Now that teams are starting to finalize their rosters prior to today's deadline, I thought it might be fun to create a thread and look at some of the players who will be available to us in this year's Rule 5 draft. We'll be picking second in the draft order, and as such, should have a good opportunity to come away with a useful talent (or two?). Here are some of the options I like - please add your...

Free agency looms. Will any of the Twins five free agents return? It's been confirmed that the Twins have had opening talks with Carl Pavano's agent, but other than Ron Gardenhire saying he'd be interested in bringing back Orlando Cabrera as his second basemen there's been no news on the rest of Minnesota's remaining free agents. Mike Redmond #55 / Catcher / Minnesota Twins Height: 5-11 Weight: 200...

It is amazing how dates like this can sneak up on you when your expectations are nil. The Indians were semi-active last season in free agency. They went out and signed Mark DeRosa, Carl Pavano, and Kerry Wood. This season? Not so much. At this point, it is tough for me to even sit here [...]

In analyzing possible targets for the Twins this offseason, I'm starting to realize that I've been perhaps overly positive. J.J. Hardy? Great acquisition ! Carl Pavano? Bring him back ! Adrian Beltre? Great fit ! And don't forget about my sleeper free agent second baseman, Jamey Carroll! Lest I start to look like anything other than a nay-saying curmudgeon, let's spend today's post talking about a...

We have conflicting reports on whether Mauer contract extension talks have actually started. Joe C. in this morning's Star Tribune: " Contract talks haven't started ". My guess is this is Mauer downplaying any preliminary discussions that may be taking place. No cause for alarm...yet. Other random notes (many thanks to MLB Trade Rumors ): Joe C. also notes that Carl Pavano 's agent had an...

Right-ho, let's do it again. 2:45 am: That's right, I get an early start! • It sounds like the Reds will need to cut payroll. With the Twins still in "adding" mode, would they take a hard look at starters like Aaron Harang or Bronson Arroyo? Or would they attempt to take a run at second baseman Brandon Phillips? • We already knew that Carl Pavano would test the free agent market...

If Jake Westbrook isn't fully recovered from Tommy John surgery in time to start the 2010 season, Paul Hoynes of the Cleveland Plain-Dealer proposes that the Tribe might turn to a familiar face --- free-agent starter Carl Pavano.The Indians want at least one veteran to anchor their young starting rotation, and if Westbrook comes out of his Puerto Rican winter league starts at less than 100 percent,...
