Mets: Well Met's fans, your New York Met's have a present for you! They decided that since they laid an egg for you last season and finished it off with one of the biggest collapses in the history of baseball, that they would raise your ticket prices 20%. But don't worry, because if you sell the farm for this year, you get first crack at the new Citi Field next year. Not only are they crushing your hearts, they are trying to empty your wallets too. What a team!

LA Dodgers: We talked yesterday about how much better each NL West team is getting. They got a solid coach who should make a big difference and now they added Huroki Kuroda the highly coveted pitcher from Japan. He sends his fastball at 88-95mph. Kuroda should settle in nice and be a great addition, but The Dodgers added him without ever seeing him pitch. They think he is legit and we will see how it works.

Phillies: They are looking for another outfielder. The Phils wait and see how the pitching situation will work out. They need a couple arms for the bullpen, but also need to add a starter. But in the mean time, they are in negotiations with both Mike Cameron and Geoff Jenkins. Both should be able to play both corner outfield positions and Cameron can get in Center Field. The only problem with Cameron is that he can't pass drug tests. Cameron could be a significant addition and he is excepting bids for less years in his contract now.

Brian Fuentes: The Rockies' signed free-agent reliever Luis Vizcaino and that may make setup man Brian Fuentes expendable, The Denver Post reports. The Astros, Braves and Mets, who had offered Aaron Heilman, expressed interest earlier this month. Fuentes lost his closing job to Corpis last year. The Mets look like the front runner.

Erik Bedard: The Orioles will trade Bedard but the price must be right. But Bedard looks more likely to move than Santana. The Reds and Dodgers are finalizing deals and should both get one more shot after that. The Reds look to be the front runners today.
