Odds & Ends: Atkins, Twins, Carlyle

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

Links for Friday, as the free agent market officially opens…

  • As Jon Paul Morosi of FOX Sports points out, the Angels' lack of interest in Matt Holliday bodes well for the Cardinals, but not for Scott Boras. 
  • Scott Boras tells FOX Sports that interest in Adrian Beltre and Mike Gonzalez is strong so far. The agent says he's fielded offers for eight players already.
  • The Nippon Ham Fighters signed minor league free agent pitcher Buddy Carlyle, says NPB Tracker's Patrick Newman.  Newman also says the Yokohama BayStars are working to sign Chris Bootcheck, Jose Castillo, and Terrmel Sledge.   
  • The Nats hired former Mariners manager John McLaren as a bench coach, according to Ed Price of AOL FanHouse.  
  • Yahoo's Jeff Passan ranks 131 free agents and provides capsules.  We've also got SI's Jon Heyman and AOL FanHouse's Frankie Piliere with Top 50 lists.
  • Derrick Goold of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch breaks down the market for Mark DeRosa.
  • ESPN's Buster Olney notes five arbitration-eligible players who could be traded, including Russell Martin and Kevin Correia.
  • SI's Jon Heyman tweets that the Mariners and Tigers continue to discuss Edwin Jackson.
  • Tom Haudricourt of the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel tweets a comment from Brewers GM Doug Melvin: the team will fill current needs before discussing a Prince Fielder extension.
  • Garrett Atkins to Troy E. Renck of the Denver Post: "I know that I will be on another team next year."
  • Joe Christensen of the Minneapolis Star-Tribune feels that free agents Carl Pavano, Jarrod Washburn, and Rich Harden are potential fits for the Twins. 
  • Christensen's colleague Sid Hartman wonders if catcher Mike Redmond "could wind up with a job in the [Twins] organization."  However, Redmond told MLB.com's Kelly Thesier a month ago that he plans on playing in 2010.
  • Paul Hagen's Phillies source shot down a story that Pat Gillick could be heading back to the Blue Jays.
  • Maury Brown of The Biz of Baseball has a Winter Meetings primer.
  • Chico Harlan is moving on from the Washington Post's Nationals beat, once a replacement is found.
