The free agent market features closers such as Mike Gonzalez, Rafael Soriano, Fernando Rodney, Jose Valverde, and Billy Wagner, plus former closers like J.J. Putz and Takashi Saito.

He's guaranteed $24.5MM over the next two seasons, and some have wondered if the Twins might trade him as a way to clear...

Ken Rosenthal of FOX Sports has a new column up today, in which he discusses a variety of topics from around the league. Let's recap a few of the highlights.... Although the Boston Red Sox have been the team most frequently linked to Adrian Gonzalez, it's unclear whether they have the pieces to work out a trade.

"I think if he didn’t have to be the main guy on one team, he’d be so much better than he is," Bell said. "He’d hit over .300, and he’d definitely hit 35 or 40 home runs because he’d have protection. It’s amazing the things he’s done with nobody hitting around him in San Diego. He broke the (team) record for walks in one month (32 in June), and...

jbox : Who do you think is the most overrated Padre? Dex : Tony Gwynn Jr. jbox : I think I'd say Chris Young or Kouzmanoff, but I'll go with Chris Young. I think people only think he's good because he's tall. If he was a human instead of a clinical giant, he probably wouldn't always be injured and nobody would think he was a number one starter. jbox : Which Padre do you look at and think "man...

(note: bumped from FanPosts) In the same vein as yesterday's Minor League free agents, these are the John Maine -esque, under the radar steals of typically cheap, young pitchers that for whatever reason become available. Whether it's a post-hype prospect (like Maine), a 4-5 starter that's out of options but won't make the 40-man or just a player that's being overlooked, usually this is someone who...
