... The Red Sox missed out on bringing Alex Gonzalez back on the cheap by waiting to see if there were other options and the same thing may happen with Takashi Saito. The Red Sox did not pick up his option with the hope that they could bring him back for less money if Billy Wagner goes elsewhere. There are now eight teams interested in Saito so there is a chance that Boston could be without either Wagner or Saito next season. We'll find out soon if Wagner accept arbitration, if he doesn't Theo needs to get busy bringing back Saito if he is still available. ...

... to take Kelly, Bowden, Westmoreland, and another prospect not named Reddick, Bard, or Buchholz, I would pull the trigger.
So, basically, this guy only like prospects that have reached the majors. I understand putting Bowden below Buch and Reddick, since he's been struggling of late, but below Bard? I think I'd put Kelly and Manifest Destiny above at least Bard, probably Reddick as well.

... In other bullpen news the Cubs might be interested in former Dodgers closer Takashi Saito. This would be a bargain type deal towards the end of the winter probably, and I think the kind of deal that could be good for the Cubs. Saito might not be as good as he used to be, but another veteran in the bullpen would be really nice right now. The Cubs are looking at John Grabow being the only veteran guy getting late game outs right now. ...

... . The Dodgers let him go at the end of the season. The Red Sox signed Saito to a one-year deal and used him in a set-up role in 2009. Boston seems to have moved on, but NPB reports no fewer than eight teams are interested in Saito's services in 2010. Someone will have the then 40-year old in camp come spring. Lowe is no spring chicken in baseball years he'll turn 37 on June 1. His contract is looking more like a burden each day, and the pitching-rich Braves may be looking to unload it. Lowe, who has a no-trade clause, has heard the rumors, but is more focused on staying ...

Top prospect rankings are en vogue this time of year. Lynn Henning takes a crack with his top 20 Tigers prospects, and it's interesting to compare his list to others. Casper Wells, for example, rates higher with Henning than Kevin Goldstein.
If eight teams are interested in reliever Takashi Saito, as NPB Tracker says (I'm going to trust their translation), could the Tigers be one of ...

... after John Lackey signs. That only makes sense, since most of the teams willing to pay for Lowe are probably in on Lackey as well (and presumably Lackey is the more desirable commodity). But only one team can get Lackey, and there's more than one team that wants him. He speculates that the Braves might be able to get another team to take $39 million of the $45 million still owed to Lowe, which would be ideal. For what it's worth, Lowe says he wants to stay in Atlanta . Patrick Newman of NPB Tracker translates a Japanese report that names the Braves as one of ...
