Around SBN: Fighters React to Nick Diaz's Positive Drug Test

Pat Burrell Signs With Rays

I guess I shouldn't have said that the Rays haven't improved this winter. Buster Olney has him signing for 2 years and $16 million pending a physical. I think Burrell will make a really good DH. I was hoping he would be the one left over when the music stopped and Jays might get him cheap, he killed lefties last year we could use someone like that.

Hugo:  Update at 4:22 p.m., 1/5 - Looks like Bradley has signed with the Cubbies for 3 years and $30 mil.  Another DH option for the Jays off the table.

Just sayin...

Rays will replace Floyd, Jackson, Hinske with Burrell, Price and Joyce in 2009

very well done by them

I’m sad the Jays weren’t in at this price. Pat has his limitations but he can hit.

Bradley got less than I thought he would get.....

I’d like to think at the numbers these guys are getting we could pick up a DH.

burned our bridge with Dunn

if no one else offers him a deal

we probably don’t even have to say sorry

Let's face it, a player who doesn't even like baseball that much

should be an easy sell to the like-minded post-Ted ownership.

If you're so sure Price is going to dominate

then why aren’t you excited about Brett Cecil?
