Odds and Ends: Beltran, Brewers, Padres

Links for Friday...

• The Padres claimed second baseman Travis Denker off waivers from the Giants.  Surprising to see the Giants let him go.
• Ted Berg at MetsBlog explains how a Carlos Beltran rumbling spun out of control.
• I recently did a Brewers Q&A with Bernie's Crew.
• The Padres called yesterday's report about John Moores selling his share of the team "highly speculative."  Tim Sullivan considers the statement revealing, and notes that this is a bad time to sell.
• Michael S. Schmidt of the New York Times chatted with Scott Boras.
• Mark Cuban mentions that the struggling economy is slowing down the sale of the Cubs.
• Terry Pluto believes the Indians should pursue Brian Roberts.
• David Brown at Yahoo profiles Theo Epstein and Andrew Friedman.
• Freddy Garcia is headed to winter ball.  The Tigers will have the first crack at signing him.  Andruw Jones will also play winter ball; he seems to want a trade if he's not a starter next year.
• Elbow surgery for Tom Gordon, which probably means the Phillies will buy out his '09 option for $1MM.
