Heyman's Latest: A-Rod, Atkins, Gagne

SI.com's Jon Heyman has a new column up.  Let's discuss.

• Alex Rodriguez's five possible destinations: Angels, Red Sox, Mets, Giants, Dodgers.  That sounds about right.  Heyman notes that the Dodgers do not have an advantage because of Joe Torre; he says star players don't consider managers as a criteria when deciding where to sign.
• Though not mentioned as one of A-Rod's five potential landing spots, Heyman says the buzz is growing that Mike Ilitch and the Tigers could go after him.
• Heyman says the Rockies will hang on to Garrett Atkins and follow through with the plan to try Ian Stewart at second base.  That could mean the end of Kaz Matsui in Colorado.
• How about Eric Gagne to the Tigers?  If they are interested, that bodes well for me getting at least 1 of 50 right.
• Johnny Damon for Joe Crede first mentioned in the Chicago Tribune??!!  That trade speculation, sir, is MLBTR's baby.  Anyway, Heyman's source thinks the Yankees could do better for Damon.
