Not much to talk about, unless you a Marlins fan. Their signings of Heath Bell and Jose Reyes made a big splash to open the Winter Meetings in Dallas. There have also been reports that the Marlins have made an aggressive 10 year offer to the prized Albert Pujols.
The St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports: The Cubs met Monday night with the agent for Albert Pujols and it was confirmed early Tuesday morning that they submitted a bid for the Cardinals slugger.
Here’s what’s happened today:
Baltimore Orioles outrighted Pedro Viola to Norfolk Tides.
Detroit Tigers outrighted Ryan Strieby to Toledo Mud Hens.
Cincinnati Reds outrighted Jeremy Horst to Louisville Bats.
Colorado Rockies claim Jamie Hoffmann off waivers from Los Angeles Dodgers
Minnesota Twins claim Pedro Florimon Jr. off waivers from Baltimore Orioles
Los Angeles Dodgers signed free agent SS Jerry Hairston
There have also been reports that CJ Wilson could be headed to the Angels, and that Mark Buehrle has narrowed his choice down to 5 teams.
Who makes the next big splash?
