Around SBN: Raiders' GM Begins The Purge

Lindsay Lohan herself was seen spending her time together with Leonardo DiCaprio on Thursday, December 17, Radar Online reported. They were spotted clubbing at Voyeur nightclub in West Hollywood before heading to San Francisco Giants baseball player Brian Wilson's Christmas party to join other friends including Ryan Phillippe, Kevin Connolly and Jayde Nicole. The pair left Brian's residence separately the next morning.

Link. No editorial, as I usually don't like to post anything about off-field stuff, but it amuses me to see all of those names together. What in the world do Leonardo DiCaprio and Brian Wilson talk about?

I was at a holiday party on Saturday and the TV in the living room was on, and someone had it tuned to “The Wizard of Oz” on TNT. Our friend’s 10-year old son watched a couple minutes of Dorothy, the Lion, the Scarecrow and the Tin Man walking on the Yellow Brick Road, then laughed and said, “THOSE ARE SUCH BAD GRAPHICS.”

Whole lotta nothing but since there's nothing else going on...
To find a bat, the Braves probably will need to be creative. Trading for Marlins second baseman Dan Uggla and sticking him in left field would qualify as such a move.

The Braves have talked to the Marlins about Uggla, but one source describes Atlanta’s interest as only "mild." A trade for the Yankees’ Nick Swisher or the signing of free-agent left fielder Johnny Damon might be preferable to the Braves.

The Yankees still could move Swisher if they wish to obtain Damon or another outfielder; they are not looking to trade Swisher, one source said, but also are not opposed to it.

Damon, meanwhile, lives in Orlando, the site of the Braves’ spring-training home; the Braves, however, probably would not be willing to pay him $10 million or more per season.

As for Uggla, before the Braves traded for him, they might want assurances that he would be willing to play left field.

Another possibility would be for the Braves to acquire Uggla to play second, then allow the situation to evolve. Uggla, once he saw the defensive skill of Martin Prado and Omar Infante at second in spring training, might be more open to a change.

The teams have yet to exchange names, one source said, and the Braves ultimately might decide that Uggla is not a fit.

Uggla’s agent, Jeff Borris, told Yahoo! in November, that "there should be no reason to consider a position change at this time." Uggla later told MLB.com, "It’s a tough subject. I don’t know. We’ll have to wait and see."

The Braves intend to play Prado at second; their opening is in left. Uggla, 29, stands to make between $7 million and $8 million in arbitration. However, his value going forward will be higher if he remains at second base.

The Marlins’ talks with the Giants about Uggla are "on-again, off- again," one source said. The Orioles are out on Uggla now that they’ve signed free-agent third baseman Garrett Atkins.

Also, the Marlins on Monday signed infielder Danny Richar to a minor-league deal that would include a $410,000 salary. Richar, a .229 career hitter in 79 career games, could provide additional infield depth if Uggla is dealt. — Ken Rosenthal

OT: Waiting out the market

A thought hit me today… didn’t the free agent market last year drop a ton in the beginning of 2009 since it became evident the economy was much worse than previously thought? In other words, is there necessarily a reason to think guys will be around for much cheaper in a couple of months compared to now?

There very well could be, especially if guys like DeRosa just want more than the current market levels and in a couple of months relent and take less, but expecting a repeat of last year and a guy like Abreu at $5 million carries some risk…
