Seen reports #phillies are pushing to sign madson. He's clearly their big pen target. But do not get sense deal is close yet.

Agent Scott Boras, reached by ESPN.com, says the two sides are still "exchanging proposals.'' #Phillies

 

Source tells ESPN.com that #Phillies talks with closer Ryan Madson are "advancing, but not complete.''

#Yankees have a lot of work to do with their rotation. Sabathia was their only pitcher to deliver 30 or more starts with an ERA below 5.00.

This is really misleading though, since Ivan Nova gave them 28 starts, 165 innings, and a 3.7 ERA in his first full big league season.

Confirming Madson with Phils, 4 for 44 mil. Fifth-year option worth 13 mil.

 

I hate to give a reliever that many years for that money, but Madson has been pretty consistent over the last 5 seasons in between the 8th & 9th innings.

Phillies haven't don't too much wrong over the last half decade. But this and the ridiculous Howard extension, well, suck.

Yup, they don't manage contracts as well as they should, which will be their pitfall in a few years.

It seems to happen to all teams that become financial powerhouses. Look at the Red Sox with Lackey/Crawford/Drew, the Yankees with all those bad starting Pavano/Brown/Wright/Burnett. It's like teams forget what got them there and they just start throwing money around because they can, not thinking about what they are spending on.

Also in the Cespedes update, Mercedes provided a list of teams that have already arranged to see Cespedes play, incl. the #Marlins on Thurs.

 

For a second I thought it was saying his name was Mercedes Cespedes. That would be an awesome name.
