Re: 2012-13 Hot Stove League Thread

What's the story on Brian Wilson? I know he got injured and stuff, but why hasn't any team just signed him to like a minor league deal or something(so that he's not on the payroll,but he's still under contract with that team,so if/when he gets healthy again,they can be the first team to see how he is).

The last I read was that he worked out for the Mets, but that was a couple weeks ago. I think the article also mentioned he'd be reluctant to sign a minor league deal. It also said Wilson claims he'd be ready for opening day but his workouts don't indicate that he's that far along.

I would absolutely love it if the Braves snuck in and got Wilson. That would be a bullpen GMs dream about.

Wherever he goes, he's going to want to be the closer. So that being said, would you rather have Wilson or Kimbrel?

The Tigers adressed that question today about Wilson. He wants to be a closer and the Tigers (and everybody else) aren't going to make that committment to him right now

Would love for Wilson too sign in Cleveland, then maybe when he is healthy we could deal Perez.

Of course Kimbrel. That's not even a question. I was just throwing around an idea haha.
