Freaking A's
Looks like Matt Holiday is headed to the A's. This is an incredible move. Holiday is one of my favorite players. He is one of the best players in the game.

I'm wondering how they're getting him, because they haven't opened up any names other than P Greg Smith so I thought Billy would have to shell out for Holliday.
Hot Stove league gets going before we even have all the awards announcements!

Same. I don't understand this either. No way they can keep him.

I will be honest.... If the Dodgers don't resign Furcal I will cry. Furcal is a stud. Great shortstop and a great lead-off man. I think the Dodgers are going to make a strong push to sign him again from everything that I have read. He is one of the guys that Torre loves.
I thought you said the Manny deal was dead in L.A.? Sounds like he may not be getting the years he wants but the Dodgers are offering top dollar for his services the next couple of years. |

there are only a few teams that can afford Manny. one one of them, the red sox, have already stated that they are not going after him. Manny will not get a 5 year deal from anyone. Not at that price at his age. My guess is 3-4 years, most likely 3.
