New Blog: Once A Metro covering Red Bull New York!

A few days late on this one but still worth mentioning, I think: Mark DeRosa joins Kerry Wood as a Cleveland Indian. A bevy of minor leaguers head to Chi-Town...DeRosa had a fine 2008, but it will be interesting to see if he can duplicate the success in the AL. Could the Astros have gotten a similar package for Ty Wigginton? DeRosa is due $5.5 million in 2009, on a contract that expires after this season. Wiggy has a career OPS+ of 105 compared to 97 for the former Cubbie, and is 2 years DeRosa's junior.
