ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) - Andy Pettitte declined his $16 million option with the New York Yankees, still uncertain whether he wants to pitch next season.

My all-time favorite QB is Jim McMahon, followed by Rudy Bukich and Sid Luckman.

Wow the Yankees are willing to spend 16 million on this guy! That is why the salaries in baseball are so inflated. His ERA was over four last season. :(

Sox re-sign Schilling for $8 million, plus incentives. Sounds like it's only a 1-year deal. Still working with Lowell. I hope Theo gets that done.

The Braves are looking to bring Glavine back to Atlanta.

Kinda like Maddux going back to Chicago?

NEW YORK -- The New York Yankees and Jorge Posada agreed Monday night to a $52.4 million, four-year contract that keeps the catcher off the free-agent market.

Hey, mick - it looks like the Tigers and Cubs are trading more players again: Jacque Jones for Omar Infante. I wouldn't think the Cubs needed another infielder, but it looks as though he's a good utility player. Jacque will be a good backup, left-handed bat in the Tiger's outfield as well.

Infante can bat around .300, and can play in or out. Should be good in a league where they play real baseball and the managers actually have to think about pinch hitting and batting orders. :)

AL managers have to think about pinch hitting and batter orders too. Unfortunately, NL managers and the fans have to sit and watch the pitcher (more often than not) strike out 2 or 3 times a game. :)

Just heard on ESPN radio that Sabathia won the AL Cy Young. I'm pretty sure that Beckett had more wins (maybe only one more), but I guess Sabathia threw significantly more innings, and obviously, the voting takes place before the playoffs start.

I would've loved to see it go to Beckett, since he was clearly the best pitcher on the best team, but I can understand the choice of Sabathia.

I voted for Wang.

...But is there an at bat more exciting than a pitcher jacking one? :)

Never. It's very exciting to see a pitcher get even a solid hit, but what are the odds? I'll take my chances on an slugger who can't play the field every day, but can jack one just like everyone else. :D
