Around SBN: Shaq As Orlando Magic General Manager? Don't Bet On It

Win Derek Jeter DVD in Free Agent Prediction Contest

You need to correctly predict where the following free agents will be playing in 2012 (or perhaps, in some cases, nowhere (i.e. retirement)). I need the name of the organization (mind you, MLB is not the only place to play pro-ball) they'll be contracted to on Opening Day 2012. The five with the most correct guesses will receive a DVD featuring Derek Jeter's 3000th hit game, courtesy of A&E.

Update: No signings made before the deadline will count (e.g. Papelbon).

technically

his whole post doesn’t count because the deadline was 11:00 am today, which he missed by almost 4 hours. But that’s up to Travis.

by phonty on Nov 11, 2011 3:33 PM EST up reply actions  

Yes, the deadline

is in 35 mins. and the Paps signing won’t count for anyone.

You know what wouldn't help with this situation?
