Kind of like Black Friday, just a week earlier. The Bucs will probably wait a bit to let the big boys set the market, and then start going after the mid-tier guys in about a month or so. For the OF, Byrd, Nady and Ankiel should get some consideration. Depending on how the market develops, there might be a Bedard, Myers or Sheets available cheap come January. And there should be plenty of relievers out there as well. Truthfully, it's way to cumbersome going through that list. Although a flyer on guys like Fossum or Bradford I could see. There seems to be interest in Igarashi from Japan as well. Ultimately though, I think the front office made their "big splash" with the Iwamura trade.
Updated the Other Fans section the other day. Buccofans.com is doing a great job counting down the top 50 prospects. Good stuff.
11:59 tonight is the deadline for setting the 40-man roster. Goodbye Brian Bixler, and good luck.
