Odds and Ends: Laird, Mitsui, Snyder

Links for Tuesday...

Michael Silverman of the Boston Herald describes a casino alert regarding potential inside information due to the Winter Meetings.
ESPN's Keith Law isn't thrilled with the Tigers' acquisition of Gerald Laird.
Michael S. Schmidt gives a peek at the Boras Book for Greg Maddux. One client for which exaggeration is unnecessary.
Patrick Newman of NPB Tracker says the Seibu Lions will post 35 year-old lefty reliever Koji Mitsui. Another southpaw option to consider; he's not expected to cost much.
Newman also says the Orioles may offer two-year, $10MM contracts to both Kenshin Kawakami and Koji Uehara.
Nick Piecoro of the Arizona Republic says the D'Backs have had brief, preliminary talks on an extension for Chris Snyder and they'll resume soon.

No surprise that Law didn't like the Laird deal; he usually seems to favor the team that winds up with prospects in trades.

With baseball having such a LONG history of trying to keep gambling OUT of the sport, I have NO CLUE why they had to have their Winter Meetings in Las Vegas.

This is a severe brain fart if there ever was one.
