- Former Miami Dolphins quarterback Pat White retired from baseball, according to the AP (on ESPN). The 26-year-old signed a minor league contract with the Royals in September.
- Other teams showed interest in Hideki Matsui, but the DH told Tyler Kepner of the New York Times that the A's were the only club to make him a formal offer.
- Kendry Morales tells Kevin Baxter of the LA Times that his first name is actually Kendrys. His birth certificate reads "Kendrys Morales," but he never corrected the Angels' documents.
- Ken Rosenthal of FOX Sports compares Zack Greinke's injury to the one Cliff Lee suffered last year. The Brewers are hoping the parallels end there, since the Mariners lost 101 games last year. As Rosenthal explains, Greinke's injury isn't the only concern for Milwaukee.
- Tim Dierkes lists 30 starting pitchers to watch for fantasy purposes at RotoAuthority.
Sucks. I was looking forward to checking for Pat White’s name in boxscores.
spelling error in ‘documents’
I’ve been stealing Beckett in all my drafts in late rounds.

Spelling mistake ‘documents’
Brewers getting Grienke = one of the best trades in a while
M’s getting Lee – one of the stupidest trades in a while
how so??
I thought that was a great trade… it didn’t work out, but either have the prospects that they gave up.
It worked out for Sea because the guys they gave up were hyped up by the Cal League or they flat out suck.
To the contrary, trading J.C. Ramirez, Phillippe Aumont and Tyson Gillies for Blake Beavan, Josh Lueke, Matthew Lawson and Justin Smoak was a fantastic move.
Me too Kendrys, Me too.
