    Los was a FA, and considering what we saved from his 2012 salary, Johnson is a meh one year rental like a lot of players we see arrive each offseason. I'd rather see Kelly Johnson play than Elliot Johnson or Sean Rodriguez.

    Rays' 40-man roster is full. Gonna have to cut some fat in order to get K. Johnson, K. Farnsworth & L. Scott on there.

    can't find a number being released yet, he made $6.3M in 2012 but was a FA. Los Signed for $2.9M, i would expect Johnson to be in the $2M range.

    No big name signings but with so many low .200's hitters being replaced with .250-.280 hitters the season is looking pretty good.
    BJ Upton will have 5 straight 30/30 seasons for the Braves with a 35/35'er to start it off in 2013.

    I didn't like the Scott signing at first but he's supposedly in great shape and ready to play.

    "Presumably, then, the actual culprit in Peralta's case is not the sandwiches, but the Camaro. Camaro's, like most cars, are considered more dangerous than sandwiches ... The upside for Peralta is he did eat the sandwich and it was very good."

    It's because 99% of them are not as athletic as other pro athletes.

    Niemann, Archer, and Odorizzi should be able to make up those innings without any problems. Plus, Price, Moore, Hellickson, and Cobb are all capable of putting up high IP numbers.
