Baseball Blogs Weigh In: Cards, Sheets, Twins, Pirates, K-Rod, Sabean

A few random notes from around the baseball Blogosphere...

  • Rockin' The Red says one of the priorities for the Cardinals this offseason should be signing a left-handed reliever. They examine the upcoming free agent market and feel Will Ohman and Jeremy Affeldt are the most attractive options.
  • Was Watching explores the Yankees "lust" for Ben Sheets and notes that he may be a better option than A.J. Burnett and CC Sabathia.
  • Twinkie Town projects the Twins '09 payroll.
  • Where have you gone, Andy Van Slyke? says it is better for the Pirates to wait and add payroll noting that a small increase now will not make the Buccos a contender. They believe it makes more sense to wait until '10 or '11.
  • One writer at Fanhouse feels Chris Perez could keep the Cardinals from signing Francisco Rodriguez, giving the Cards money to spend on the rest of the bullpen.
  • Another writer at Fanhouse wonders why Brian Sabean is going to be back in '09.
  • El Lefty Malo says Brian Sabean's plan has "more or less worked". The suggestion is that it has only been one year since the rebuilding process began.

"... it makes more sense to wait until '10 or '11" is the new "Wait until next year!"

I think Chris Perez is just fine in the closer role. He's not elite, but he gets the job done. Let him adapt to the role and get it all worked out.
