Player Notes

January 1, 2009
Updating an earlier report, the one-year deal with the Rangers that Derrick Turnbow signed is for $925,000 if he makes the team, with $325,000 in possible incentives, according to The Dallas Morning News.

Our View:Turnbow is a long shot to contribute much this season, but you can't teach heat, and he can still bring that when healthy.

January 1, 2009
MLB.com reports that he Rangers have reached a tentative agreement for a one-year deal with reliever Derrick Turnbow. It is said to be a minor league contract with an invitation to spring training.

Our View:Turnbow battled shoulder injuries last season and appeared in just eight games. It's been some time since he has been effective, but he's worth keeping an eye on. The Rangers don't have much of a bullpen, so Turnbow could be relied on heavily - assuming that he makes the roster and can remain healthy. Both are far from certain.

December 31, 2008
The Rangers continue to be interested in Derrick Turnbow, according to MLB.com. Pitching coach Mike Maddux worked with Turnbow a couple of years ago in Milwaukee, so it would seem to be a good match for him. The Marlins and Pirates also remain interested in the righty.

Our View:It is unclear if Turnbow would become the Rangers' closer, but if he could rekindle some of the 2005 magic in which he recorded 39 saves, he wouldn't be a bad bet for the spot.

December 30, 2008
The Sun Sentinel indicates that the Marlins are one of the three top contenders for reliever Derrick Turnbow.

Our View:Turnbow nailed down 39 saves in 2005, and would provide a veteran presence to a Marlins' bullpen that lost Arthur Rhodes, Kevin Gregg, Joe Nelson and Doug Waechter. Turnbow could also provide insurance as a closer behind Matt Lindstrom.

December 29, 2008
There are three serious contenders for Derrick Turnbow, according to the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.

Our View:The Tigers, Marlins, Rays, Rangers, Phillies, Rockies, and Giants have all garnered interest in Turnbow, but the race to sign him has been narrowed down to just three teams. The Pirates are known to be one, but the other two were not disclosed.
