Derrick Turnbow Derby
We learned yesterday from Dejan Kovacevic that five teams are in serious talks for free agent reliever Derrick Turnbow. One large-market team (not the Pirates) made a Major League offer.
Jon Paul Morosi talked to Turnbow's agent Damon Lapa, who said the Tigers called him this week to reaffirm their interest. The Tigers have Turnbow's medical records (he dealt with a slight labrum tear this year). Lapa expects his client to sign somewhere by the end of the year.
According to Morosi, the Pirates, Marlins, Rays, Rangers, and Phillies have also shown interest in Turnbow. The last three are new, while the Rockies and Giants have been linked to Turnbow in the past as well.

Wow who would have guessed the Rangers are in on losers like Daniel Cabrera and Turnblow. Great.

I dont understand why anyone is interested in Turnbow, much less why there is a 'derby' for tis guy... i hate the free-agent reliever market

i'm so confused that turnbow isn't on a MLB team because he can throw at least a 96 mph fastball. i know that the Pirates, Marlins, Rays, Rangers, and Phillies are interested in turnbow but why dont they just sign him already. because i bet he is just waiting for a offer contract from one of these teams becasue all of these teams need a pitcher cause there pitching staff isn't that great.
