Player Notes
January 19, 2010
The Twins and J.J. Hardy have avoided arbitration by agreeing to a one-year deal, according to the Minneapolis Star-Tribune's LaVelle Neal.

Our View:The deal is reportedly worth around $5 million. Hardy, who came over in Minnesota's deal with Milwaukee for Carlos Gomez, will serve as the Twins' new starting shortstop.
November 6, 2009
Tom Haudricourt of the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel reports that the Brewers have traded shortstop J.J. Hardy to the Minnesota Twins in exchange for outfielder Carlos Gomez. Hardy batted just .229 in 414 at-bats last season.

Our View:This move makes a ton of sense for the Brewers. With Alcides Escobar ready to take over at shortstop, and the Brewers thin in the outfield, Hardy was a perfect piece to trade away after he was benched and even demoted last season. The move almost surely signals the end of the short, but successful, Orlando Cabrera era in Minnesota.
September 1, 2009
According to the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel, the Brewers have recalled shortstop J.J. Hardy and inserted him in Tuesday's lineup against the Cardinals.

Our View:Hardy was demoted to Triple-A on August 12th due to his .229 batting average (among other offensive struggles), but the team has decided to give him another shot. He's playing short and hitting eighth in Tuesday's game, but it's best to see how he performs over the next few games before giving him any fantasy consideration in NL-only leagues.
August 12, 2009
Brewers' beat writer Adam McCalvy is reporting on his Twitter page that the team has optioned shortstop J.J. Hardy to Triple-A Nashville. Hardy is hitting .229 for the team this season.

Our View:Hardy has not been good this year, but this move still comes as a surprise. Hardy has been a staple in the Brewers' lineup for years, but apparently the team has run out of patience with him. He barely had any fantasy value before this move, but obviously he has none now.
August 11, 2009
GM Doug Melvin shot down the rumor that the Brewers placed shortstop J.J. Hardy on waivers, according to the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel.

Our View:There was speculation swirling that the Red Sox claimed Hardy off waivers, but Melvin proved that to be false. Melvin did state the Brewers would like to add a starting pitcher though.
