Angels Interested in Scott Podsednik?

December 20, 2010
Ken Rosenthal of Fox Sports is reporting the Angels are interested in signing Scott Podsednik. Podsednik did not perform to the level the Dodgers had hoped after a trade deadline deal in 2010. 

Podsednik has always had the knock of being strictly a base stealer. He will be 35 when the 2011 season starts and you have to wonder how much he can really provide other than stealing 30 bases?

Russell Martin to Sign with the Yankees

December 14, 2010
As reported yesterday multiple sources are reporting Russell Martin is set to sign with the Yankees. If Martin signs the Yankees catching situation will be interesting in 2011 with Jorge Posada being slated for full time DH and Jesus Montero waiting in the wings. 

Steve Garvey Assembling Group to Buy Dodgers?

December 11, 2010

Multiple media reports are saying Steve Garvey is putting together a group of investors to make a bid to buy the Dodgers. Of course any potential talk of the Dodgers being for sale is pending the resolution of the McCourt saga. Recent court rulings seem to indicate the McCourts will be awarded a 50-50 interest in the team. Most observers seem to believe neither has the finances to buyout the other leading to speculation of the Dodgers possibly being up for sale in the near future. Stay tuned.
