Odds and Ends: Johan, Hudson, A-Rod, Dallas

Collection o' links...

• LENIII has a Johan Santana update...nothing groundbreaking going on, pretty much looks like the Yanks and Red Sox are still both involved.
• The Brewers were apparently pretty deep in discussions for Miguel Tejada during the Winter Meetings.
• After a year out of baseball Javy Lopez is back with the Braves on a minor-league deal.  Remember when he slugged .687 with 43 home runs in 457 ABs?  Good times.
• Nick Piecoro has some chatter about Orlando Hudson, who hits free agency after the '08 season.  The most interesting part is that Hudson refers to Bob Melvin as "Bo-Mel."  It's the same story with Hudson - he'd like an extension, the D'Backs are noncommittal.  You never know - I certainly didn't expect them to re-up Eric Byrnes.  But as of right now it seems like Hudson will walk.
• Alex Rodriguez is not on speaking terms with Scott Boras...let's all hope they reconcile, they were a great couple.
• Barry Jackson says the Marlins have their eye on Dallas McPherson.  The Giants are known to be interested as well.
• Mike Sweeney's agent has been in touch with the Royals as well as two other clubs.  I think he might have to accept a bench role this year.
