SI.com is reporting that the Detroit Tigers are jumping into the pool of teams interested in signing 21-year-old Cuban pitcher Aroldis Chapman . The words "get in line" come to mind, however, when you look at the list of clubs angling for a chance at the 6'4" kid with the 102 m.p.h. fastball. Of course, the Yankees are interested. (And they invited him to Yankee Stadium to watch Game...

Add the Detroit Tigers to the list of teams in pursuit of Aroldis Chapman, according to a report by Melissa Segura in SI.com. Segura writes that "several industry sources expect Chapman will command more than the $32 million the Yankees paid Cuban right-hander Jose Contreras in 2002." Speaking of the Yankees, Chapman was a guest of the team for Game 6 of the ALCS, writes Jon Heyman. And the...

Tracy Ringolsby of Inside The Rockies examines Colorado's commitments for 2010, and the decisions they'll face regarding potential free agents and arbitration cases. Here are a few of his thoughts: Jason Marquis has said he wants to sign with the Mets and likely won't be back in Colorado. There's a good chance that lefty Alan Embree will retire. Jose Contreras is interested in returning in a middle...

So this is what I am left with: doomed to follow a baseball team that uses pre-modern techniques for assessing players I am forced to come up with my own alternate reality that I hope will happen. I will list some groups of players that I would look to acquire at each position we need. I admit the plan is not "sexy" but it better positions us for 2011/12 and should improve the club next season....

Colorado's season ended in heartbreaking fashion last night, when the normally reliable Huston Street lost his second game in as many days for the first time in his career. Now the front office will focus on trying to improve a team that went 72-38 after July 3rd this season. The club has several young players (like Ian Stewart, Dexter Fowler, and Carlos Gonzalez) estabishing themselves in the bigs,...

Aw, fooey — by the time I remembered this game was on, it was already approaching the end. The Rocks battered Cole Hamels for an early 4-0 lead, chasing him after only five innings and pressuring him in every frame. Todd Helton's groundout in the first got Colorado their first lead of the game, and Yorvit Torrealba provided a two-run jack in the fourth to extend the lead. Dexter Fowler's fifth...

After what seemed like a week and a half of failed attempts, listless offense and sagging starting pitching, the Dodgers finally came around and found an opponent they could beat. Oddly, it wasn't Rockies' starter Jorge De La Rosa, who wasn't super sharp the way Clayton Kershaw (mostly) was; De La Rosa got knocked out before the fourth started with a groin strain, but that was likely the best possible...
