I doubt he'll be a closer though. He could be a legit setup man or middle reliever.

he'll probably start as a closer and if he blows Frasor will probably take over

I remember hearing Downs say he doesn't want to be a closer, he likes being the set up man

OAKLAND -- In a swarm of moves Monday, the A's acquired infielder Adam Rosales and outfielder Willy Taveras from Cincinnati for infielder Aaron Miles and a player to be named.

Oakland also officially announced the signing of free agent outfielder Gabe Gross to a one-year contract -- initially reported by MLB.com on Sunday -- and claimed infielder Steve Tolleson off waivers from Minnesota.

DETROIT -- Justin Verlander appears set to remain a Tiger for quite a long time. The All-Star right-hander has reportedly agreed to a five-year, $80 million contract with Detroit.

The Associated Press reported the agreement, citing an anonymous source familiar with the negotiations. The deal could reportedly be formalized on Thursday.

Team president/general manager Dave Dombrowski was not immediately available for comment, nor were Verlander's agents at SFX. A Tigers spokesperson declined comment.

Good for him. Its nice to see that he had a great bounce back year after that horrendous year he had 2 years ago. Man that fastball-curveball combo he has going is deadly.

Just about to post that. The best news out of Detroit in general all year.
Let's hope we continue to get the JV of last year.
Cy-Lander 2010.

the twins road jerseys look like the Nationals but I like those home jerseys, they have a retro feel to them

The Mariners are on the cusp of signing Erik Bedard to a 1-year deal. All indications are that this deal is done by as early as tomorrow morning.

Buster Olney reporting that the Twins have closed a 1-year/$5M deal with the O-Dawg. Minnesota has a stellar line-up heading into 2010.
