I anxiously check the internet every few hours, even sneaking off at work to try and get some kind of update, hoping I will stumble onto the news that we signed a guy like Oswalt or traded for an all-star first basemen….but ultimately I think this is going to be like a few years ago when the Marlins seemingly dumped Cabrera to the Tigers and I woke up every morning waiting for the news that we traded for Jason Bay or Dan Haren and all we came up with was Jamie Carroll.

Give him a year and eight million.

Won’t happen.

Looks like he wants to sign in Texas or St. Louis

Keri’s piece had the Red Sox giving him a solid 10. It almost is a lock he’s going to Texas, St. Louis or Boston I’d imagine unless somehow Antonetti blew him out of the water.

I don’t think Oswalt is coming our way. I’d still be happy passenger on the Rich Harden train, though.

Roy Oswalt’s shoulder problems as a younger pitcher were cured when he electrocuted himself on a car battery.

Not making this up.

Heyman is saying that Oswalt has rejected a $10M offer from the Tigers to take less money somewhere closer to the south (Texas or St. Louis).

I doubt the Indians are going to overpay any more than that, if even at the level.
