« Possible Cano Suitors | Main | Will Brewers Try To Sign Sabathia? »

Odds and Ends: Lowe, Redmond, Timlin

Linkage for Friday...

• River Ave. Blues discovered that Mike Mussina's wife may be a bigger factor than we thought in regard to his retirement decision.
• David O'Brien tosses out some names for the Braves to consider: Derek Lowe, Matt Cain, Roy Oswalt, and Josh Willingham.  Everyone likes Lowe...Anthony McCarron says the Yankees and Mets should consider him.  Those clubs could also enter a bidding war for C.C. Sabathia, says Bob Klapisch.  Will C.C.'s postseason record diminish his contract?  I don't think so.
• Greg Couch doesn't want Javier Vazquez pitching for the White Sox again.  Maybe Ozzie is right, Vazquez is not a big-game pitcher.  But why say that publicly?
• Joe Christensen seems certain the Twins will exercise Mike Redmond's $950K option.
• Chris Carpenter's shoulder injury is unprecedented among pitchers.  Do the Cardinals need to add veteran rotation insurance?  Speaking of unprecedented procedures...Takashi Saito had platelet-rich plasma injected into his elbow in July.
• Joe Starkey thinks the Pirates should...non-tender Adam LaRoche?
• Mike Timlin could retire.
• Huge E-Ticket Manny Ramirez feature from Bill Simmons, wherein Scott Boras is blamed for his Boston exit.  Good read.
