Week In Review: 8/22/10 – 8/28/10

By Zachary Links | August 29, 2010 at 8:29pm CDT

It's Sunday night and that means it's time to take a look back at the week that was..

  • Multiple teams claimed Dodgers outfielder Manny Ramirez off of waivers but the White Sox emerged with the winning claim.  It was said that the Dodgers would not be willing to part with the slugger for nothing, though it now appears that they may do just that.
  • The Twins acquired Brian Fuentes from the Angels on Friday in exchange for a player to be named later.  The 35-year-old has $1.89MM left on his contract this season.
  • As August 31st fast approaches, the White Sox and Phillies are said to be eyeing relief options.  Several interesting bullpen arms including Scott Downs, Jason Frasor, and Kevin Gregg have been waived and claimed by teams, though Toronto isn't likely to move any of them.
  • Even though Nats GM Mike Rizzo wants to sign him to an extension, Adam Dunn is likely headed for free agency.
  • Cody Ross was awarded to San Francisco, though they were likely trying to block the Padres from getting him.  Matt Downs was DFA'd by San Francisco to make room for the outfielder.
  • The Dodgers claimed Rod Barajas off of waivers from the Mets to fill in for the injured Russell Martin.
  • On Friday the Rays announced that they have officially signed Brad Hawpe to a deal.  Hawpe was designated for assignment by the Rockies and received interest from the Red Sox, Rangers, and Padres.
  • The Yankees say that they're content to stand pat rather than deal for a starter before Tuesday.
  • Marlins second baseman Dan Uggla is said to be seeking $55-60MM across five years.  However, Uggla says that talks between the two sides have slowed down.
  • A pair of Tigers vets, Jhonny Peralta and Johnny Damon, want to return to the club in 2011.  The Red Sox put in the winning claim on Damon this week but the slugger refused to return to Boston.
  • Yankees hurler C.C. Sabathia says that he won't "even consider" leaving the Yankees when his player option comes up after next season.
  • The Phillies inked Nate Robertson to a minor league deal.  The pitcher will be assigned to their Triple-A affiliate.
  • Joaquin Arias was designated for assignment by Texas to make room for Alex Cora.
  • Milwaukee released reliever David Riske, who was owed $1MM for the remainder of 2010.
  • Arizona released infielder Bobby Crosby after the 30-year-old spent less than one month with the squad.
  • Veteran Jermaine Dye says he wants to return in 2011.
  • Trever Miller's 2011 option, worth $2MM, will now vest.
  • Royals veteran Willie Bloomquist would like the opportunity to be an everyday player again.  He will be a free agent at the end of this season.
