An extremely brief weekly transaction report at Baseball America today. It's really uncanny how slowly free agents are being signed this year, and how many fairly big names are still jobless. Everyone's talking about it. Cashman thinks it's because the "middle class" has disappeared. It's all superstars or young kids, nothing in between.
There's a familiar name in this week's report, though: the Dodgers have signed Mike Myers. Torre seems to be reconstituting his old bullpen out there on the left coast.
The Red Sox traded Willy Mota and Miguel Socolovich to the White Sox for David Aardsma. Aardsma was a first-round pick out of Rice in 2003.
Andy Pettitte was deposed today. He spoke to under oath to congressional lawyers for 2-1/2 hours. No word on whether he ratted Clemens out.
