Athletics evaluating Magglio Ordonez.
from mlbtraderumors

MLB Network's Peter Gammons reports the Athletics are evaluating Magglio Ordonez for a spring tryout.
Ordonez has reportedly made "consistent progress" in his recovery from ankle surgery and expects to play in 2012 despite being active for just 92 games last season. If he signs with the Athletics, it would only be on a minor league contract.

Unsung heroes of the Negro Leagues.

Never got their due.
The Negro Leagues showcased incredibly skilled players who electrified crowds. Unfortunately the majority of these stars never had the opportunity to play at the major league level.

In baseball, a premium on smart shopping.
There were plenty of big spenders in free agency, but which major league teams got the most for their money and which ones might wind up with buyer's remorse?

Detroit Tigers Team Notes

February 5 in Tigers and mlb history :

1983 - The Toronto Blue Jays acquire minor league first baseman Cecil Fielder from the Kansas City Royals for journeyman outfielder Leon Roberts. Although the Blue Jays won't see the benefits, Fielder will become one of the American League's top power hitters after a stint in the Japanese Central League, leading the AL in home runs in 1990 and 1991 with the Detroit Tigers.

1999 - Major League Baseball will honor each league's best hitter with an award named after Hank Aaron. The all-time home run king learns about the honor on his 65th birthday at an event which includes US President Bill Clinton and Hall of Famers Ernie Banks and Reggie Jackson.

2002: Major League Baseball announces the withdrawal of its plan for contraction this upcoming season, but the sport is still determined to eliminate two teams in 2003. Attempts to contract the Minnesota Twins and Montreal Expos this season could not be accomplished due to a series of legal decisions and fierce opposition from the Players Association.
