« New Mariners GM Could Be Selected By Gillick | Main | Rosenthal: Angels Looking Into Holliday »

Odds And Ends: International Signings, Lo Duca, Ichiro, ChiSox

Here's a list of loose links (sink ships) from today:

• The A's officially inked Michel Inoa for $4.25MM.
• Corey Brock of MLB.com has a piece on the Padres' international signings. More here from the man himself, Paul DePodesta.
• The Marlins are still looking for a catcher, and one of their former guys might be available. That would be Paul Lo Duca. With the Nats out of it, could they swap Lo Duca within the division? And would they assume part of Lo Duca's remaining salary?   Keep in mind that MLB.com's Joe Frisaro said yesterday that the Marlins were "not serious" about Lo Duca.
• Ozzie Guillen is completely content with the current White Sox team. Other than an underperforming and injured Paul Konerko, they're looking solid.
• Sam Mellinger goes over the Royals trade options. It's full of the usual suspects: Mark Grundielanek and Ron Mahay. He also mentions Esteban German, who in the past might have intrigued teams as a solid utility player, but who has dropped off considerably in 2008.
• The best way to rebuild the Mariners? Trade Ichiro, says Scott Miller.
