More photos » by Elaine Thompson - AP These days, Branyan makes the same face when he gets out of bed. Browse more photos » I'll be honest with you - since the end of the season, I've considered the return of Russell Branyan in 2010 all but an inevitability. He's a player that fits here, filling a need and adding a lot to the lineup, and this being the first team to really give him a chance...

The Mariners are interested in free agent first baseman Nick Johnson, according to Ken Rosenthal and Jon Paul Morosi of FoxSports.com. Johnson has also heard from the Giants, Mets, and Yankees. Despite their interest in Johnson, the Mariners are still negotiating with Russell Branyan, and they've also discussed Lyle Overbay with the Blue Jays. Toronto appears willing to pay some of Overbay's $7MM salary...

Since yesterday seemed to be the 1B rumor day, I thought it only be fitting that I try to recap the multiple players available for the position. The Mets are rumored to be looking for a platoon partner for Daniel Murphy at the position, this plan serves two purposes, get a longer look at Murphy at 1B and not block Ike Davis in 2010... I must acknowledge that I don't like the idea, I've seen enough...

Yesterday, Tim Brown of Yahoo! made a simple post to Twitter that read, “The Mets have called on Russell Branyan.” …hmm, did they call on him to join the Flushing Flash… or, did they call on him to make cupcakes… or, did they call on him for some other reason… Nevertheless, Adam, the Brooklyn Met [...]

The Mets have called to inquire on free agent Russell Branyan, tweets Yahoo's Tim Brown. Branyan was the subject of a November 2nd discussion post here at MLBTR, where it was noted that the first baseman was productive only for the season's first three months perhaps due to a back injury. At the time, interest in a Mariners reunion was mutual, with readers finding a $3-5MM base salary to be reasonable....

The hot rumor of the day is that the M's and Tigers have been talking about a three-team deal involving Brandon Morrow and Edwin Jackson . I'm only bringing this one up because the M's have been linked to Jackson before, so I can believe in their possible interest. That said: (1) Jackson isn't very good. Don't believe the ERA. He took a step forward, to be sure, as he's cut his walks in three straight...

For those of you who are (justifiably) distrustful of the Bill James projections but still want to look at some numbers, the 2010 CHONE projections are live. For hitters, anyway. Here are the Mariners , here are the free agents, and here are the Yankees , in case looking at the Mariners didn't make you sad enough. The first thing you should do here - as one should do with pretty much any forecasting...

Let's have a look at another handful of late afternoon and early evening links.... In comments relayed by Larry Stone of the Seattle Times, Seattle GM Jack Zduriencik was vague when asked about Ken Griffey Jr.'s playing time in 2010. Griffey and the Mariners reached an agreement earlier today, but it sounds like Junior could have a lesser role next season -- particularly if the team is able to retain...
