Pre-Arb Signings

Per Castro: Choo, Laffey, Reyes, Miller, Barfield, Sowers, Meloan, Sipp, Toregas. Still 14 to go, and no numbers.

Only surprising thing for me is that Reyes is still pre-arbitration. It feels like he's been around for a long time.

Re: Reyes, it’s all about big-league service time (including time on the DL, if you were in the majors when you went there, which Reyes actually did briefly in 2008). He’s got a little over two years of service time, and you need three years (or close to it) to be eligible for arbitration.

Well, that's just, like, your opinion, man.

Yeah, he spent a lot of time in the minors between 2007 and 2008. If Cleveland hadn’t traded for him, I’m not sure I would have noticed. He started in the World Series all the way back in the Bush Administration!

So did Andy Sonnanstine!

Travis Hafner is overrated. Clarity is underrated. David Dellucci is David Dellucci.

This is a weird place to say it, but I don’t like the look of the new tag display. The text is smaller and harder to read with everything written across instead of in columns.
