Odds & Ends: Hannahan, Votto, Cargo, Angels

By Mike Axisa | December 4, 2010 at 11:37am CDT

Three years ago today, the Marlins and Tigers completed a six player trade that sent slugger Miguel Cabrera (and Dontrelle Willis) to Detroit. It appears another slugging first baseman will be on the move shortly, but here's some other tidbits from around the league…

  • The Indians have signed infielder Jack Hannahan to a minor league contract with an invitation to Spring Training according to the team. Hannahan, 31 in March, hit .237/.340/.374 in 392 Triple-A plate appearances this year while playing all around the infield.
  • When asked about contract talks, Joey Votto told John Fay of The Cincinnati Enquirer "[The Reds] said they wanted to do a contract. They haven't said one year or million years. How can I comment on that?" (Twitter link)
  • The Rockies, meanwhile, continue to talk to Carlos Gonzalez about a long-term contract, says Troy Renck of The Denver Post. He cautions that nothing is imminent, and it's unlikely that a deal would go beyond his arbitration years. Agent Scott Boras is known for taking his clients to free agency whenever possible.
  • The Angels are not setting deadlines with free agents this winter, a change from their previous way of doing things according to ESPN's Buster Olney (Twitter links). 
  • Tom Haudricourt of The Journal Sentinel looks at what the impending Adrian Gonzalez trade means for Prince Fielder. Brewers GM Doug Melvin acknowledged that teams just aren't making young pitching available in trades.
  • Lynn Henning of The Detroit News and Joe Strauss of The St. Louis Post-Dispatch write that the Tigers and Cardinals, respectively, expect to be busy during the upcoming winter meetings.
  • Matt Gelb of The Philadelphia Inquirer looks at how some moves might impact the Phillies in the coming weeks.
  • MLB.com's Jonathan Mayo takes a look back at some Rule 5 Draft gems. This year's Rule 5 Draft takes place this coming Thursday.

    According to Olney, the Angels are NOT setting deadlines.

    I think the Angels are going to make out very well this offseason. Bell can be an obtainable option via trade and we already know they have interest in Crawford, Beltre, Werth and Soriano. Now that Boston has added one big bat, Beltre is likely gone which is good news for Angels fans.

      true, but this also helps oakland as they still have that contract on the table with beltre so if the angels offer doesnt compete with theirs beltre is as good as an Athletic

        True that. Regardless the Angels are one of only a handful of teams able to get what they want. I hope they can build a strong team for next season.

          so do I. I am hoping for crawford and a beltre/soriano/Heath Bell (trade)

          Bell seems like he’d be a better addition than Soriano. They both are lights out, though.

          yes, both have pros and cons

      I don’t know man, I just hope that the Takahashi signing isn’t the biggest offseason move for the Angels. Imagine if they lose out on the Crawford and Beltre sweepstakes, which could very well happen? Next season would look really ugly…

    I bet the marlins want that cabrera trade back.

    That’s pretty low of Votto to start that One Million Year contract rumor about himself.
