Odds and Ends: Burnett, Inoa, Minaya, Glavine

Today's links...

• Pablo Ozuna...designated for assignment again.  Additionally, the Phillies cut Andy Tracy.  The 34 year-old hit .288/.377/.516 in Triple A this year. 
• Eddie Bajek added AL infielders to his Elias rankings.  Orlando Cabrera and Edgar Renteria are Type As, while Mark Ellis and Mark Grudzielanek are Type Bs.  Cabrera could net the Sox some picks.
• The Phillies would like to bring Jamie Moyer back next year, but so far they've only had informal talks.  Earlier this month Moyer spoke of an obligation with the Phillies, but he is not under contract for '09.  The Phillies have also had informal talks with Pat Burrell, who's said he wants to stay.
• Richard Griffin discusses A.J. Burnett quite a bit in his mailbag, suggesting this is the pitcher's best season because of his career-high win total.
• Athletics Nation talks to A's owner Lewis Wolff about the Michael Inoa signing.
• Omar Minaya's job is secure.
• Aaron Harang has suggestions for the Reds to make their ballpark more pitcher-friendly.
• Tom Glavine is feeling good after somewhat minor elbow surgery, but isn't sure about playing in '09.  Ken Rosenthal wrote recently that Glavine wants to pitch next year.
• Grant at McCovey Chronicles gives his take on pitch counts.
