We know that Matt Holliday is now the second highest-paid player on the Rockies, but we also know that he shaved his head.
A bit more interesting news involves Chin-Hui Tsao because he is on the verge of signing with NL West opponent the LA Dodgers. Apparently nine teams courted him so teams do believe he has a chance to make his way back. I don't think it's a huge loss. He could be better than some of our current pitchers but there's too much working against him for that to happen.
The Rockies will receive $800K from Yomiuri in return for Luis A. Gonzalez. And that $800K is going where?
