Funny thing though is, during the start of the franchise, didn't the Panthers get huge crowds? I remember the rat throwing stuff whenever they scored a goal or something. http://panthers.nhl.com/club/page.htm?id=60916 Actually looking at this, their attendance has been pretty steady.

I like the look of that hat.

Surprised Gammons hasn't broken this. Since he was mentioned in the article.

So they will change their mind in what, 2 hours? At least it seems like it changes that often.

Nice of him to do that. Very classy move.

And btw. This is nothing compared to this. http://www.nj.com/cumberland/index.ssf/2013/10/trout_coming_to_play_phillies_may_13_turns_into_millville_night.html

The post before was about Cano. Bryan Hoch ‏@BryanHoch4h Cashman offers negotiation details: Cano's camp insisted upon 10 yrs, $235 million to stay. Only a $5M discount from what he got in Seattle. So it seems to be more an answer to giving a 31 year old Cano a 10 year deal vs a young Trout.

http://www.syracuse.com/news/index.ssf/2013/12/teen_who_killed_4_drunk_driving_claims_affluenza_gets_probation.html Good news. Kill 4, injure 9. Go to Newport Beach for rehab.

He's been asking this for a month. Don't get why anyone is shocked. Of course for the last month, his name has been nowhere to be seen in potential signings also.

Sriracha shipments delayed until January by health regulators' action Or just another reason why it doesn't pay to make things in the USA.

10 years for killing 4 and injuring 9. Hopefully the parents will get sued out of affluenza and onto foodstamps.

2013 Rule 5 Draft Results

I don't mind it. But they also should put a rule in where the catcher or any player can't block the plate/basepad.

Looking At The Market For Kendrys Morales Interesting write up on him. Does not rule out the Halos. But they bring up the Astros and that does make sense if his pricetag comes down like Lohse last season.

You would lose your first and second rounder. Oddly. in Seattles case. They sign Cano, and lose Morales. They have a protected first rounder. They would lose their second rounder. But they would get a supplemental pick which is before the second round.

Agents being agents. I have a deal, beat it. When afterwards they really didn't have any deals in place.

Reading about it a little more. I don't think Lewis will be eligible for the Rule V. This draft is meant for players that were never on the 40 man roster. Lewis was at one point on the 40 man roster so he would be ineligible. In a seperate note. Storm, Berg isn't listed in the top 10. So a good chance we keep him. http://mlb.mlb.com/news/article/mlb/clubs-will-be-looking-to-bolster-their-rosters-through-thursdays-rule-5-draft-at-the-winter-meetings?ymd=20131207&content_id=64468814&vkey=news_mlb

No one will sign him anyways. Part of the rules for rule V is if you select someone, they have to stay on your 25 man roster the entire year before they become your property. In Lewis' case, don't even know if he can throw a baseball effectively yet.

He re upped with the Rangers to a minor league deal. http://www.cbssports.com/mlb/eye-on-baseball/24270454/rangers-resign-colby-lewis-to-minorleague-deal

Asians always want 8. But then only have 5?

I think for the Angels, the writing is on the wall. If they were even thinking of trading Trout, they wouldn't have traded Bourjos and Trumbo. They are going all in with Trout, and I don't think they will consider trading him till it looks like he's determined to go to FA'cy.

A trade of Kendrick or Aybar might be more of a move to get a young pitcher, but also to free up money to sign Trout long term this offseason. I think they will sit tight now, but things may change if they don't get a Tanaka or Garza or even an Arroyo.

Perry must be a mean curler.
