    Tommy Hunter, most likely, While he doesn't have elite stikeout numbers, his uptick in velocity and swinging strike percentage paired with his excellent control should make him a solid choice. There is no reason he can't do as well as Johnson did for the Os the last two years

    The Mariners are really opening up the checkbook this winter!

    It'll be interesting to see what type of season they have this year.

    Several new personalities in the locker room...

    Pretty good price for arroyo, he still at the top of his game and can be good for a 15 win season

    Nice signing for Arizona! I knew he'd land somewhere soon.

    However, it now looks like Archie Bradley will stay put in the minors a little longer...

    I don't know anything about him other than this numbers and he seems like he can be exciting. I was looking into some minor leagues to draft for my upcoming keeper league.

    Plus. He eats up innings.

    Over the last 9 seasons he pitched at least 199 innings.

    I've read about him and Sano appears to be a another young contributor for the Twins future.

    He has only played high A ball. He'll get a cup of coffee maybe in Sept but twins will not want to start his arbitration clock and really bring him up for good until may/June of 2015.

    Yes. He appeared in 61 games last year. This surprised me because I don't remember hearing a lot about him.

    He was 3-3 with a 3.74 ERA in 53 IP for Seattle.

    Most six year old kids can barely hit soft toss. That's crazy.

    Yes, you're correct.

    I just consider FA's members of their previous team until they are signed by another team.

    Where will Ubaldo and Ervin Santana land? Also will Burnett stick around and pitch? I think he stays in Pittsburgh, but it has taken a while to decide on that outcome.

    Heard that he wants to stay in the National League, and near his home in Maryland. Also wants to pitch for a contender.

    This limits the available teams...I would not be surprised if he lands with the Nats or stays in Pitt.

    Hopefully the Nats.
