Yankees Evening Links: Logan & Kuroda
- RHP Hiroki Kuroda is now officially a New York Yankee. To make room on the 40-man roster, RHP Kevin Whelan was DFA'd.
- In a prospect profile of Jose Campos (rated 86th in MLB), he's called potentially the best player involved in the Montero-Pineda trade. High praise.
- The biggest payroll drop in MLB history could soon belong to the Mets, who may cut more than $50M.
- The combined salaries of A-Rod, Pujols and Fielder are more than the GDP of 12 countries.
- Old Hoss Radbourn found a rare photo of Miguel Cabrera at his new position, third base.

Cuban left-hander Gerardo Concepcion, an 18-year-old free agent, is very close to signing with a team, according to Enrique Rojas of ESPNDeportes.com (story is in Spanish).
Concepcion’s agent, Jaime Torres, tells Rojas that the lefty has offers from as many as 10 teams and could sign as soon as this weekend. Earlier this week, Torres said the Rangers, Yankees, Cubs and White Sox have expressed the most interest in Concepcion so far.

It’s like someone said “hey, let’s make this new stadium as tacky as humanly possible!” and did.

I don’t know how attached Andruw Jones and Freddy Garcia are to 18 (Kuroda’s old number) and 36 (Pineda’s old number), respectively, but aside from that I have no idea.
