Problems. OSA shows Cesar Tovar fielding at 2B as 10 my my scout says its 1. Good OF ratings though. My scout says Curt Flood can't hit anymore. Everything red. Fielding still great. OSA still has him as a good hitter.

Waive/DFA on RP Pedro Bourbon age 24 2.0/2.5, RP John Gelnar age 24 2.0, and SS Marty Martinez age 29 1.5. No options and they won't make the team. All cleared waivers and accepted demotion.

Over the winter I let 2B Bill Mazeroski file for FA. With the collapse of Tovar's fielding at 2B and Martinez not making the team I signed Maz for one year at $65k. He wanted $86k last fall. I suppose I might have done better than Maz but he's very popular and had he signed elsewhere I would have taken a fan interest hit.
