I saw it on cards talk. The posters name is old school and he has broken a few signings before.

Someone needed to keep D'Angelo Jiminez company once he's DFA'd.

I thought we only collected DFA's. Didn't know we could DFA someone ourselves.

Only if they're future hall of famers that Tony never gave a chance to (see Gall, John or Rodriguez, John).

Oh, and re: signing. Next you're going to tell me Lance Painter is working on his comeback.

Affirmed.

Cards Sign Politte

600K minor league deal, invite to Spring Training. In other words, he got the D'Angelo deal.

Ladies and Germs, remember that we signed Greg freaking Vaughn to a minor league deal in 2004, yes THE 2004. If he makes the team he'll probably help. If he doesn't, he'll be cut loose. Local guy given the favor, that's probably all this is.

I don't expect him to make the team. Then again, I didn't expect Ryan Franklin to get a 2 year deal... :?
