Monday Hot Stove
Yadier Molina agreed to terms on a brand spanking new contract with the Cardinals today. The 4-year deal also has an option of a 5th year, and would buy out his 2nd year of free agency.The Royals have signed Brett Tomko to a 1-year, $3 million deal. Can the Royals stock up on mediocre pitchers, or what?
The Indians thought about bringing back Bartolo Colon. Then they saw him pitch in the Dominican, where he only hit 89 on the radar gun. The White Sox have reportedly backed off too, because of Colon's desire for a multi-year deal.
The Rockies have reportedly signed their rookie phenom shortstop, Troy Tulowitzki, to a 6-year, $30 million deal. There's also an option for a 7th year included.
The Reds have inked lefty Jeremy Affeldt to a 1-year, $3 million deal. Remember when Affeldt's agent called his client a premier left-hander and wanted a 3- or 4-year deal?

The Reds signed Affeldt. Considering it's only 1 year and pretty cheap for a basically league average lefty, I like the deal. Supposedly has a lot of performance clauses in it, so the deal is pure upside, IMO.
Its not a bad deal, but funny considering what his agent wanted.
Not every team can afford to spend 18 millon to have Roger Clemens pitch for 4 months. I would rather have Tomko go 5-5 for 3 million than Roger go 5-5 for 18.
