Odds And Ends: Sano, Rays, Mateo

The Orioles' director of player development told Steve Melewski of MASN.com that Miguel Angel Sano is the best Dominican prospect he's ever seen.
The Orioles haven't begun negotiating with Sano, as there are some lingering questions about his age.
ESPN.com's Rob Neyer says he'd find room for David Price in the crowded Rays 'pen instead of bumping Andy Sonnanstine from the rotation.
White Sox scouting director Doug Laumann says Josh Phegley and Kyle Bellamy could move quickly through the minors.
ESPN.com's Jorge Arangure believes the $3.1MM Wagner Mateo agreed to is impressive in this economy.

I know it 'might' seem like a waste but why don't they make Price their closer?
He's shown in the playoffs last season he has the tempermant for it.
You might say its a waste to put a potential lefty ace in the bullpen but it's not like Tampa aren't swimming in good young SP talent and ace closers don't exactly grow on trees.
Kansas are doing the same with Soria, he could quite easily be a SP but he's working great as a closer.
