MIDNIGHT MATERIAL 

Yes, I can even do the ol' midnight updates from the GIS lab here at Central.

Tonight, we have articles from both the Times and the P-I.

P-I first, and it's a shorty. Seems like it was just a day ago when we were told that only the Mariners had actually made an offer to Shig Hasegawa. This article says that Shig told a Tokyo paper that he'd received offers from "nearly 30 teams." Now this is either a complete about-face, or he's messin' with the media over there.

Now the Times article. It looks ahead to the offer/decline day (Sunday) for salary arbitration. It says that Shig is probably a lock for an arb offer, as is Rhodes. Cameron, however, may be the odd one out. The article also insinuates that Cam's agent may be asking for $6-7M/yr. HAHAAHAAA!! Isn't that only $1-2M less than Boone?? How the hell can anyone justify $7M a year for Cam??

All in all, I just can't wait for the winter meetings to start up. The Mariner updates at midnight are kicking up, so hopefully it's a little smoke before the fire.

Lastly, thanks for the props from Matt at JAMB and thanks to Steve for tipping me to further details and resources, namely involving the possible Kevin Brown deal.

Trudge forth, fellow bloggers.
