Quick Hits: Mariners, Beras, Rockies, Padres, Peavy

By Mike Axisa | March 17, 2012 at 10:08pm CDT

Here are some links from the around the league as Saturday turns into Sunday…

  • The Mariners could probably afford to trade one of their third base prospects, muses Jon Paul Morosi of FOX Sports (Twitter links). Seattle has Kyle Seager, Alex Liddi, Francisco Martinez, and Vinnie Catricala at the hot corner.
  • MLB is still investigating the signing of Dominican outfielder Jairo Beras by the Rangers, reports Enrique Rojas of ESPN Deportes. Beras agreed to a $4.5MM deal last month, but there are questions about his age and eligibility to sign.
  • Ken Rosenthal of FOX Sports wrote about the unique construction of the Rockies' roster. The team added high-character positions players to a largely unproven group of young starters this offseason.
  • Dan Hayes of The North County Times reports (on Twitter) that the Padres still expect to have their new television deal with FOX Sports San Diego finalized within the "next few weeks or sooner."
  • "If I can't stay healthy for 200 innings, if somebody says something about closing or being a reliever, I can do that, I can be a reliever," said White Sox starter Jake Peavy to MLB.com's Barry M. Bloom. "If it comes down to that, I'll do it because I love this game."
  • “I know that I want to make the right decision,” said Yankees closer Mariano Rivera to reporters (including Chad Jennings of The Journal News) today following Andy Pettitte's return. “That’s what I want to do. When I make the right decision, I don’t want to come back or say, ‘I should have done it’ or ‘I should have stayed.’ I want to be 1000% sure that it’s the right decision."Rivera hinted at retirement last month.

    Peavy is saying all of the right things, but if he wants his $22MM club option picked up in 2013, he will need to put together a strong season as a STARTER.  Chances are that the option is not picked up and he receives the $4MM buyout instead. 

    If the option is not picked up, he will need to prove that he can remain healthy and maybe the bullpen does that for him, although it won’t do him any favors as a potential free agent.

      Unless Kenny Williams gets on some very good drugs, Jake Peavy’s 2013 option won’t get picked up, regardless of how he pitches.

      You just don’t pick up a 22MM option on a guy with the spotty injury history and performance Peavy’s had for the last few years.

      Definitely have to give him credit for his attitude about the situation. Guys of lesser character would be balking and throwing a fit about being moved to the bullpen. Then again, you could pretty much move me anywhere if I was making $17M as well.

    From what I am hearing, MLB has said no to new TV deal if Moorad sale goes through. Moores must stay majority owner. Bad news for Padres.

      I was wondering how that even made any sense whatsoever, then remembered that Bud Selig is MLB commish.
