Player Notes

March 4, 2010
The Reds are not interested in Gary Matthews Jr., according to John Fay's (Cincinnati Enquirer) twitter page.

Our View:This shoots down an earlier report from Buster Olney (ESPN), who stated that Cinncinnati was interested in acquiring the outfielder from New York.

March 4, 2010
The Reds are reportedly interested in acquiring Gary Matthews Jr. from the Mets, according to Buster Olney's (ESPN) twitter page.

Our View:New York could be open to letting him go, with Angel Pagan an option in center field for the start of the season. It is uncertain who the Reds may offer in a trade proposal though.

January 22, 2010
Confirming the details of Los Angeles' trade of Gary Matthews Jr. to the Mets, Jon Heyman of Sports Illustrated reports that the Halos will receive Brian Stokes in return and pay $21.5 million of Matthews' remaining $23.5 million salary.

Our View:Somebody really wanted someone gone. A huge disappointment after signing a five-year, $55 million deal with Los Angeles after the 2006 season, Matthews will be no more than New York's fourth outfielder once Carlos Beltran gets healthy. In fairness, with this being the Mets, that could take a while. In 316 at-bats in 2009, Matthews hit .250 with four home runs.

January 22, 2010
According to a "source" of Fox Sports' Jon Paul Morosi, the Angels will receive reliever Brian Stokes from the Mets in the teams' Gary Matthews Jr. deal.

Our View:So the deal is just mostly, and not totally, a salary dump for the Halos. In 70.1 innings last season, Stokes posted a 3.97 ERA. Stay tuned for more official word.

January 22, 2010
Jon Heyman of Sports Illustrated is reporting that the Mets have acquired Angels outfielder Gary Matthews Jr.

Our View:The Angels are expected to pick up much of his remaining $23 million salary for 2010 and 2011. The move is likely an insurance policy on Carlos Beltran, who is expected to miss at least the first month of the regular season after undergoing knee surgery last week. Stay tuned.
