Odds and Ends: Santos, Blalock, Lo Duca

Let's dig through today's rumor bin...

• The Jays claimed southpaw Reid Santos off waivers from the Indians.  MLB.com's Anthony Castrovince says the Indians are clearing room on their 40-man roster in preparation for the winter.
• Dejan Kovacevic has yet to observe why new Pirates third baseman Andy LaRoche is so highly regarded.
• Jamey Newberg feels Hank Blalock's $6.2MM option for '09 is an easy call to exercise.
• J.C. Bradbury sees a rift within the Braves organization.
• Craig Calcaterra dismisses the silly idea of Frank McCourt suing Andruw Jones.
• Paul Lo Duca would prefer a non-guaranteed deal next year if he gets a chance to compete for a starting job.
• Ian O'Connor doesn't see Alex Rodriguez finishing his contract as a Yankee.
• C.C. Sabathia just wants to be happy in his next destination.
• Will the Braves re-sign Mike Hampton this winter?  Is it possible both he and Carl Pavano are useful pitchers in 2009?
