College Football will no doubt take up the majority of my day, so I'll get to the news quickly and check back in periodically if anything happens. There ain't much.
The New York Post has this neat feature they run on Saturdays called Prospecting. Unfortunately, they only provide information on Melky Cabrera and Robinson Cano's stints in the Dominican Winter league this week. (Naturally I skip the crap about the Mets.) Both players are doing well. Cano, limited to DH duty, is batting .317 with a .404 OBP the Melk-Man looks even better with a .326 avg and a .380 OBP. Really makes you want to rethink that Cano to Dodgers bullshit that LA seems to be pushing for.
I really haven't been doing this for more than a week, and it's already cracking me up. If you remember, a few days ago Tony Masarotti of The Boston Globe broke the story that Cashman was flying out to California to meet with Scott Boras. The next day, Tyler Kepner of The New York Times had the story that Cash meet with Boras, but in this one, Boras requested the meeting at the behest of client Mark Texiera. The interesting thing is that this meeting took place in the D.C. area. This meeting was primarily used to get the Mark Texiera race off and running as the meeting apparently took place in Texiera's Maryland home. No deals were offered, but Cash it is rumored also asked on Derek Lowe specifically. It is also assumed that Manny Ramirez and Oliver Perez were discussed as well. It gets just ridiculous here though because today Newsday happily leads with the information that Cash and Boras met in Southern California!?!? Which is it? D.C. or California? It's not like these areas border each other or are even in the same region.
Nice work guys apparently its not about being right anymore. I guess just being printed is enough for most.
