After a hectic Winter Meetings, it's been a slow weekend.  Today's links...

• A 3.35 ERA for Phil Hughes next year?  Bill James and Co. think so.
• Nick Cafardo of the Boston Globe talked to Mark Mulder's agent, Gregg Clifton.  Clifton said, "He's ready to go for any team right out of the chute."  Clifton shot down talk that Mulder would not be ready in April.
• The Rays have contacted the agents for Joe Nelson and Scott Proctor.
• Keith Law likes A.J. Burnett's upside, but notes the risks.  Peter Abraham compares the Burnett and Johan Santana deals.
• Law is in favor of the Indians' Kerry Wood signing.
• Scott Ostler's baseball source says people are scratching their heads about the Giants' Edgar Renteria contract.
• Bruce Jenkins says the Rockies would trade Garrett Atkins for Jonathan Sanchez.
• Troy Renck says Willy Taveras has received interest from the Reds, Nationals, and White Sox.
• Drayton McLane says there are a lot of reasons for Astros fans to be optimistic.
• The Yankees like Andy Pettitte over Ben Sheets.
