Player Notes
December 23, 2008
The Twins seek an upgrade at third base, but are not believed to be pursuing Ty Wigginton, according to the Star Tribune.

Our View:Wigginton hits for a solid average and has "pop" in his bat, but the Twins may not be interested as he is not strong defensively.
December 21, 2008
Interest among MLB clubs is growing for Ty Wigginton, according to the Boston Globe.

Our View:The Reds, Indians, and Giants are interested, and the Reds would like him as a super-sub and an option for the outfield. Pittsburgh likes him as well, but he is not interested in playing for them again.
December 18, 2008
The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports that Ty Wigginton is not at all interested in re-joining the Pirates.

Our View:Some reports suggested that the Pirates would make a push for Wigginton, but this latest information makes that appear to be a long shot.
December 17, 2008
Free-agent infielder Ty Wigginton wants a contract that exceeds the three years and $17.5 million deal that Casey Blake received, reports the Minneapolis Star Tribune.

Our View:Wigginton has decent power, and has hit 24, 22 and 23 home runs over the last three years, respectively. His big home and road splits last year are a warning sign for fantasy owners, however, so his value will be partially determined by where he signs.
December 15, 2008
The Pirates are interested in Ty Wigginton after the Astros let him go Friday, according to the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.

Our View:Wigginton would provide the Pirates with the right-handed power bat that they covet. Wigginton was with the Pirates in 2004-05 and can play both corner infield spots as well as second base and the outfield.
