Cubs Sign Jason Jaramillo! (and other more important stuff)
OK, after all the hoopla over the Cubs moves in late December and early January, things have slowed down quite a bit lately. But that's not to say there aren't some interesting things going on, you just have to dig a little harder to find it.

Two formers Pirates have signed on with new teams today.Oliver Perez signed a minor-league deal with the Seattle Mariners that included an invitation to spring training.

Pirates Catcher Luke Carlin Not Hooters Girl Material
Jason Jaramillo is a solid catcher, but credit Neal Huntington for bring in some competition for him. Rob Biertempfel reported that according to manager John Russell, “Jaramillo still must improve his game-calling, throwing and consistency at the plate.”
