Like most Saturdays at this time of year, it's a bit slow. So here are a few links to pass the time.
- The Dodgers have signed veteran IF Mark Bellhorn to a minor league deal. Tony Jackson from Inside the Dodgers says this happened a few weeks ago, but was well under the radar. After some extended spring training, Bellhorn has reported to AA, where he will simply fill a roster spot. He is not expected to help the major league team this year.
- Richard Justice says he wouldn't change a thing about the surprisingly-good Houston Astros.
- Fresno State ace and potential top-10 pick Tanner Scheppers has gone down with a stress fracture somewhere in his shoulder. Jonathan Mayo suspects he could fall to a big market team in the latter portion of the first round, a la Andrew Brackman last year.
Joe Pawlikowski writes for River Ave. Blues, a Yankees blog, and can be reached here.
I'm curious to see where Scheppers ends up. I think Mayo is right, he could go to a big-market team late in the 1st. I think the Yankees got a steal when they took Brackman last year and I can't wait to see him finally get back on the mound.
