Any Last Signings Up DD's Sleeve.

[Rene88]

I know Weams thought we might get Dustin McGowan but then he got a major league deal with the Dodgers. I know we have said we need another RH pitcher (probably 99% change on minor league deal). Any thoughts on who it might be? A waiver wire at this point?

Do you see us with any other minor moves?

Do you see Matusz around in the bullpen for another OD with the O's (I am shocked he is still here personally).

Just wanted to get your thoughts...

I'm not sure why we need another RH reliever. We already have O'Day, Brach, Hunter, and whoever ends up as the "6th starter" (it's not going to be Chen, so he'll be RH).

I think it was quoted in Roch's blog. My guess is just for Norfolk (hence why they wouldn't go for a major league deal on McGowan).

Just "depth" I would think.

Agreed. Plus there is Webb that they need to figure out. They also have M Wright if needed.

I think they'll have to deal some of their excess rather than acquire more parts.

Here is one of the links/quotes. I think Roch has had several about the RH reliever:

Duquette hasn't crumpled up his shopping list. He wants to add more depth to the bullpen, specifically a right-handed reliever.

"There's a couple," he said.

The group of right-handed relievers still on the market (ages in parentheses) includes the following, courtesy of MLBTradeRumors.com:

Mike Adams (36)

Matt Albers (32)

John Axford (32)

Burke Badenhop (32)

Ronald Belisario (32)

Jared Burton (34)

Joba Chamberlain (29)

Kyle Farnsworth (39)

Matt Guerrier (36)

Matt Lindstrom (35)

Dustin McGowan (32)

Chris Perez (29)

Francisco Rodriguez (33)

Rafael Soriano (35)

Jose Veras (34)

Brian Wilson (33)

Jamey Wright (40)

Cavaet: some have since signed from this blog post so not accurate real-time.

Here is the current list:

Mike Adams (36)

Kyle Farnsworth (39)

Matt Guerrier (36)

Francisco Rodriguez (33)

Rafael Soriano (35)

Brian Wilson (33)

Adams is the intriguing name. Not sure where he is in his rehab, but he's someone who wouldn't be ready on Opening Day anyway. But would be a potentially decent arm to add mid-year if the need arises and he is back to full health.

You can never have too many arms.

Who did Lindstrom sign with? No clue he was 35...

[Frobby]

Dan might make a MiL depth signing, but that's all.

What Roch and Ed were talking about was McGowan. That's over.

[paullwaull]

I'd take Wilson but only if he can keep his beard.

[ArtVanDelay]

Minor league deal with the Angels.

[El Gordo]

Trade Bundy, Norris and Schoop, to Philly for Hamels.

End of spring training, March 25 or so... if all these pitchers stay healthy, Pen and starters, there will have to be a trade or three.

Trade Bundy, Norris and Schoop, to Philly for Hamels.

I would do this, too. I doubt that Philly would, though.
