southsider2k5 Posted February 23, 2012 Author Share Posted February 23, 2012 Jon Morosi @jonmorosi Roy Oswalt's agent releases statement saying Oswalt will continue evaluating his options. So he's not signing now. Roy Oswalt '12 sounds like Pedro Martinez '09. May sign with contender at midseason -- on his terms. Oswalt, you recall, turned down a $10 million offer from #Tigers.

ptatc Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Feb 23, 2012 -> 01:13 PM) http://www.boston.com/sports/baseball/reds...arrowing_t.html Jenks is lucky he isn't paralyzed from the waist down. If the infection truly is in the spine he could be looking at osteomyelitis in his vertebrae. With a guy that size spinal fractures are a real possibility. Hopefully they caught the infection in time if not, he's screwed. He may not be able to stand upright let alone play baseball. If the infection got into his spinal fluid, he could die or just go into a coma. I would like to be his attorney if the bone spur was truly left partially excised. You can make the case of ruining a 10's of millions of dollars player. $$$$$$$$$$$$$ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reddy Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 Carlos Gonzalez - OF - Rockies According to the Denver Post, Carlos Gonzalez reported to spring training heavier and stronger after adding 20 pounds of muscle this offseason. Gonzalez plans to lose 10 pounds in spring training, but was reportedly ''launching missiles'' in batting practice. Coming off an injury-plagued season with multiple injuries, he remains be one of the top outfielders in the National League if he can stay healthy. ruh roh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
