From the Penthouse to the Outhouse: 2B Bret Boone, who hasn't played since 2005, has signed a minor league deal with the Nationals. Don't expect to see him back in a MLB uniform ever again though. - 2/20
As expected, the Mariners and Orioles completed a huge trade in which the Mariners receive stud lefty starting pitcher Erik Bedard who some consider the best pitcher in the A.L. now that Johan Santana has become an N.L. player. It cost the Mariners bigtime though as they had to give up top prospect speed/power guy Adam Jones who resembles a young Eric Davis, lefty reliever George Sherrill who has a tremendous ERA/Whip and minor league pitchers Tony Butler, Kam Mickolio and Chris Tillman. - 2/7
Thursday MLB Notes: Eric Bedard is in Seattle getting a physical. This pretty much sums up the curiosity on if he'll become a Mariner soon. Look for this trade to be announced on Friday or Saturday. In other news, power hitting left handed hitting Ryan Klesko has decided to hang them up. Klesko, 37, could hit it as far as anybody in his prime. Thanks for the memories. - 2/7
