Odds and Ends: Teixeira, Giles, Beimel

Links for Wednesday...

• You can hear me on Lenny Melnick's radio show at about 7:15pm CST.
• The Marlins could be an interesting long shot for Raul Ibanez, but he'd have to leave significant money on the table.
• Indians manager Eric Wedge really wants the team to bring in a closer.
• George King likes Jason Giambi for the Rays; Cork Gaines imagines the negotiations.
• Jesse Spector talking to Brewers GM Doug Melvin, who wasn't in a revealing mood.
• Tony Massarotti expects the Red Sox to make a huge offer to Mark Teixeira.
• Padres outfielder Brian Giles doesn't expect to be traded this winter.  If the team is in the tank next summer he might approve a deal, perhaps contingent on a contract extension.
• Jacob Jackson says Kevin Towers has handled the Jake Peavy negotiations poorly so far.
• Former Reds GM Wayne Krivsky could end up in Baltimore's front office.
• Bernie Williams is still not ready to retire.
• Derrick Goold believes the Cardinals have $17-21MM to spend.
• At least six clubs are in on Joe Beimel.  The Tigers are one, while the Cardinals, Rockies, and Mets may be others.
