Cristian Guzman will sit out at least the first half of the upcoming season, his agent Stanley King tells MLB.com's Bill Ladson. King says his client is dealing with unspecified "family issues," and while he hopes Guzman can settle things over the next few months, it's possible Guzman could not play at all in 2011. The free agent infielder would still attempt...

Nats prospect Ryan Tatusko takes time to talk to TNW
I recently had the opportunity to speak to Nats pitching prospect Ryan Tatusko. For anyone not familiar with Ryan he came over to the Nationals as part of a late July trade that sent Cristian Guzman to the Texas Rangers last season.

Bargain Basement
There were some interesting late-Hot Stove signings this past week. Most notably, Vlad Guerrero finally landed in Baltimore, as many had been anticipating. As I discussed last week, I'm not completely sold on this move for the Orioles because I don't think it gets them into playoff picture, but a one-year, $8 Million contract for a 35-year-old coming off a pretty impressive...

Hot Stove Update
The Hot Stove for the Chicago Cubs has cooled down considerably since they traded pitcher Tom Gorzelanny to the Washington Nationals for 3 prospects. If the Cubs were to make another trade, it would essentially have to be a “dollar for dollar” trade as their payroll is reaching it’s ceiling. With the expected multi-year deal (likely in the range of $6MM-$8MM a year...

SF Giants Rumors – The Next Backup Shortstop Is?
The San Francisco Giants can cross Edgar Renteria off their list for a backup shortstop. CSNBayArea.com tells us that Renteria has a deal with the Cincinnati Reds for one-year, $3 million dollars.

Discussion: Yankees Possible Middle Infielder Options
Yesterday we learned that talks between the Astros and Yankees about Jeff Keppinger didn't get very far. The 30-year-old utility player appeared to be a fine fit for a team in need of bench help, but New York could instead turn to rookie Eduardo Nunez to fill the role. That, however, seems like a Plan B more than anything right now.
If the Yankees want to sift through...

Guzman Strained
The Rangers placed Cristian Guzman on the disabled list with a strained quadriceps muscle. He was 3 for 34 since joining the Rangers, so with the injury, I’d say the trade wasn’t working real well.
