Again with the Sweeney rumors

This time coming from the NY Post. It's rampant speculation on the part of the Post (who, as Joe noted in his email, have a well-earned reputation for "basically making shit up"), and features nothing in the way of new information.

Though I must say, a Kotchman/Aybar for Sweeney deal doesn't sound too bad (assuming the Royals eat some cash).

UPDATE: I think Cupie's observation down in the comments is right - Allard Baird isn't going to take on any of that contract, as this previously linked Peter Gammons story illustrated. I forgot about all the previous Sweeney hype. My bad.

Comments:


IIRC the Post was also first to break the story that Vlad was coming to the Angels. I believe the "blind squirrel" aphorism applies here.

The Royals won't eat anything. And oh yeah, what Rob said.
