After weeks of speculation, the Oakland Athletics have traded staff ace Dan Haren but his destination was not one of the American League powers.

The 27-year-old right-hander was traded along with RHP Connor Robertson to the Arizona Diamondbacks in exchange for a package of six minor league prospects (LHP Brett Anderson, LHP Dana Eveland, LHP Greg Smith, INF Chris Carter, OF Aaron Cunningham and OF Carlos Gonzalez).

Cant believe that:

Seattle offered Silva 4 years 44 mil
That he then dragged his feet on taking that ridiculous offer
Then actually got 4 years 48

The Phillies found more depth and versatility for their outfield today.

They signed outfielder So Taguchi to a one-year contract worth a guaranteed $1.05 million, which includes a club option for 2009 and performance bonuses.

Looks like this one got missed:

The Royals traded pitcher Billy Buckner to the D-Backs for 2B Alberto Callaspo. Buckner was in the running for a spot in the Royals rotation this Spring, this move gives Hochevar a solid shot at holding a starting spot and clears the way for a possible Grudzelanik trade later in the season.

Also, Royals sign LHRP Ron Mahay for 2 year / $8 million. Should be a good replacement for the loss of Riske.

Hmmmmm, interesting, any thoughts on wether or not this might translate into more playing time for Chris Duncan?
