The Royals exercised a $2.7 million option on OBP black hole Miguel Olivo today, adding a .278 OBP to the mix of the disastrous Jose Guillen and Mike Jacobs.
Dayton Moore may yet prove himself to be the second coming of Allard Baird.
Word from XM Radio (I've yet to verify it with any online source) is that a few days after rumors surfaced of Pat Burrell rejecting a 2-year, $22 million offer from the Philadelphia Phillies, Burrell has sacked his agent and replaced him with a Philadelphia-based agent. Is this a sign that he blames his agent for the low-ball offer? A sign that he really wants to stay in Philadelphia? Or is there actually a meaningful sports agent who works out of the city of Brotherly Carjackings? The Ghost of Mark McCormack works in mysterious ways, but if Pat Burrell is moving on from the club, Philly fans at least owe him a debt of gratitude for not hiring Drew Rosenhaus.
