HO-HUM
Some tidbits off the RotoWorld wire...
Concerning Brett Tomko:
Since the Rangers won't be able to afford Sidney Ponson after failing to complete an Alex Rodriguez trade, Brett Tomko has moved back to the top of their shopping list.
From the linked Fort Worth Star-Telegram article:
If Tomko comes to Texas, the Rangers' rotation might look something like this: Chan Ho Park, Tomko, Ricardo Rodriguez, Colby Lewis and R.A. Dickey or Joaquin
Benoit.
I hope everyone just had a good holiday laugh.
Now some Brian Jordan news...(you'll find it at the end of the article beneath all the Yankee blather)
Jim Turner, the agent for Brian Jordan, said his client is on the verge of signing with an American League team.
Well, luckily this means the expectations of the ESPN.com "Where Will the Top 50 Free Agents Land" pool will thankfully end up wrong for this one -- you may recall they had Brian Jordan (Rick Rizzs would call him a former two-sport athlete, I would call him an oft-injured past-his-prime underachieving hack) going to the Mariners. That Top 50 list had the Mariners signing only two free agents: Shig Hasegawa and Jordan. Ugh.
Mariner tidbits are hard to come by on Christmas Eve, yes they are.
