INTERNATIONAL FA FILE-I spent 3.3M last year on the international market. So my penalty is a cap, I can't spend more than 226K on any one player. And wouldn't you know it, this years market has some HUGE talent. Magoni, asking 3 million, Castro asking 2.2M, Garcia asking 2.8M, all ENORMOUS talents. I am going to bid on a few of the other kids. The Romero kid, SP, and Leon, the OF, both are out of the Dominican.

NEWS-Glenn is optioned out after the game and after much discussion 1st overall draft choice Jake Scott is being recalled. If it gets ugly fast we can make a different move but all signs are that he's at least ready to give it a try.

Brooklyn acquired Petty just last week from El Paso, and they turn him around to the Iron Pigs for a good IF.
Not sure anyone gets what the White Caps are doing, unless it was to open up some room in the minors. Toner is a very good veteran pitcher, maybe they plan on making a run next year.
San Jose grabs a monster prospect for two guys not many know about. Anderson was the 2nd round pick and McCorkill a 3rd rounder for the Sharks 2 years ago. Both are now the top prospects in the Black Sox organization at 1B and as a reliever. Both reported to A ball.
