Ok, Niese.  When the Cubs hit of him, it is nice to watch?

I'm sure the Pirates will turn him into some sort of stud though.

I keep waiting for someone else to post the biggest news of the winter meetings but it now looks like I have to do it:  Quintin Berry has signed a minor league contract with the Angels.

Darwin Barney to Toronto, Bonafacio to the Braves.  The last three signings are all ex-Cub utility guys.

Bonafacio got $1.25 million from the Braves with $1.25 in incentives. Maybe Ryan at $1 million could be traded if they keep Baez.

Maybe Ryan lets the Cubs start Baez in AAA - are they near a service year cutoff with him as it relates to free agency?

Not sure. He still has 6 years and isn't a Super 2. I'm not sure he gets better facing AAA pitching.

Maybe Ryan at $1.0 is a big enough contract that he'd accept an outright assignment to Iowa rather than decline, become a free agent and forfeit his money.

Believe that Ryan's $1 is fully guaranteed---part of a multi-year deal.
