Rockies Sign Torrealba, Herges
The Denver Post is reporting that the Rockies have re-signed catcher Yorvit Torrealba and middle reliever Matt Herges. They're currently in town for physicals.
It's believed that Torrealba will sign for a reasonable $7MM over two years with an option for 2010. Contrary to previous reports, he did not fail a physical with the Mets earlier this month. Wonder why they pulled out of that one.
It sounds like the Rox got Herges on a one-year deal, maybe for slightly more than the original $2MM they offered.
These signings aren't spectacular. They're both low-risk, low-upside deals. If Torrealba is only making $3.5MM a year it will be OK to allow Chris Iannetta to work his way into the starting role.

I know this isn't supposed to be a Miguel Cabrera comment but I looked on a fox sports video of Ken Rosenthal saying the Angels and Marlins have agreed on 3 players and it is just hindering on who the 4th player will be. It is almost done Angel fans.

Torrealba was the main reason that Colorado made it to the World Series.
Torrealba's stats last year:
AVG: .314
HR: 54
RBI: 156
OBP: 422
In Closing: Braves should trade Scot Thorman for Johan Santana.
