Player Notes
November 12, 2009
According to the Kansas City Star, the Royals have signed third baseman Wilson Betemit to a minor league contract.

Our View:The Royals needed someone to fill the void left by Mark Teahen, and since the organization is notoriously stingy, the Betemit move makes sense. He had a depressing .200/.280/.311 line in 45 at-bats with the White Sox last season, so he won't be popping up on any fantasy radars come draft day.

Wilson Betemit will likely sign a minor league contract with the Royals, according to FOX Sports.

Our View:The Royals would use him as a cost-effective alternative for Mark Teahen, who was dealt to the White Sox.
June 12, 2009
TSN is reporting that the Chicago White Sox have outrighted Wilson Betemit to Triple-A after he was designated for assignment on June 4. Betemit struggled with the Sox this season, posting a .200 average in 20 games.

Our View:Not a big shocker here. Betemit will work in Triple-A, and he will have to get his power stroke back if he wants to rejoin the Sox at any point this season. He doesn't promise to hold any fantasy value this year, so no need to monitor him while he is in the minors.
June 3, 2009
The AP reports that Wilson Betemit will be designated for assignment on Thursday in order to make room on the roster for Gordon Beckham.

Our View:Betemit came over from the Yankees in November and open eyes with a power surge throughout spring training. However, he hit only .200 in 20 games this season.
June 2, 2009
Wilson Betemit is slated to start at third base for tonight's home game against Oakland, according to the Chicago Tribune.

Our View:Josh Fields will be riding the pine after striking out three times Monday. He is still hitting fine overall, and Betemit is not replacing him.
