  • Mon, Nov 23
    • Vizquel has agreed to $1,375,000, one-year contract with the Chicago White Sox.
      Advice: The 42-year-old Vizquel is an 11-time Gold Glove winner and has played mostly shortstop during 21 major league seasons. He figures to add depth to Chicago's young infield.

    • INF Omar Vizquel proved last season he could handle a utility infield role when he hit .266 for the Texas Rangers and provided his usual sterling defense. The White Sox were suitably impressed and signed him to a one-year, $1.375 million contract. Chicago has young players at both middle-infield spots and third base, and Vizquel figures to be a good mentor as well as a quality backup. He will be playing for another Venezuelan (and a former shortstop), manager Ozzie Guillen.

      Advice: The deal could be announced as soon as Monday, according to a person familiar with the negotiations who spoke on condition of anonymity because the team has not commented. Vizquel, who will be 43 in April, has played 21 major league seasons. Last year he was in a utility role with the Texas Rangers, playing shortstop, third base and second base while appearing in 62 games. He batted .266.

(Oak - 3B) NA Player notes
  • Mon, Nov 23
    • 3B Dallas McPherson signed a minor league deal with the A's, who are attempting to shore up a position of potential weakness. Veteran 3B Eric Chavez is coming off back surgery, and 3B Adam Kennedy is a free agent. McPherson, who played for the Angels from 2004-06 and Florida in 2008, missed two of the past three seasons due to an ailing back.
