Seventy-nine players filed for free agency yesterday
Circling The Bases —
[image] Seventy-nine players filed for free agency yesterday . The two teams with the most filers: the Cardinals with seven and the Dodgers with six. For the Cardinals : Rick Ankiel, Mark DeRosa, Troy Glaus, Khalil Greene, Matt Holliday, Jason LaRue and John Smoltz.

DeRosa isn't as valuable as everyone likes to think he is, but he's solid and versatile. Holliday is a no-brainer at Matt ...
