Odds & Ends: Bumgarner, Rangers, Kim

By Tim Dierkes | September 8, 2009 at 1:20pm CDT

Links for Tuesday…

  • Giants top pitching prospect Madison Bumgarner surprisingly gets the big league call today, says John Shea of the San Francisco Chronicle.  The bad news: Cy Young contender Tim Lincecum is out with back spasms.
  • Evan Grant of D Magazine shows how little the Rangers got out of the 2002-05 drafts (including the "DVD" trio), yet they had the game's best farm system coming into the season.
  • MLB.com's Jonathan Mayo has the reverse standings, which give an idea of the 2010 draft order.
  • Eddie Bajek looks at various scenarios where Placido Polanco could ascend to Type A status.  It's a good reminder on how the Elias rankings come together.
  • Tigers owner Mike Ilitch is behind the decision to let Magglio Ordonez's 2010 option vest, believes John Lowe of the Detroit Free Press.
  • Former Dodgers GM Fred Claire finds the upcoming free agent class lacking in depth.
  • East Windup Chronicle passes along a report suggesting Byung-Hyun Kim wants to make a comeback.  Is he still represented by Scott Boras?
  • Cubs first baseman Derrek Lee feels the team can win in 2010 with the same group, according to Gordon Wittenmyer of the Chicago Sun-Times.  Paul Sullivan of the Chicago Tribune considers possible moves for next year.
  • Brad Penny had a strong preference to pitch in the NL, according to Joe Christensen of the Minneapolis Star-Tribune.  Twins players Mike Redmond and Carl Pavano lobbied Penny directly.
  • Ben Kabak of River Ave. Blues expresses concern that Derek Jeter's next contract could approach $100MM.
