Quick Hits: Ironclad Baseball Show and MLB Stuffage

For those of you in the Mid-Atlantic region, Ironclad Authentics will be hosting a baseball collectible show this weekend (Jan. 26 -28th) at the Baltimore Convention Center. Tickets and information are available here: http://www.baseballsbest2007.com/

Baseball legends Cal Ripken, Tony Gwynn, Tom Seaver, Jim Palmer, Mike Schmidt and a littany of others will be there.

MLB Stuffage:

* Infielder Felipe Lopez and Washington avoided arbitration by agreeing to a one-year, $3.9 million deal.. He's played most of his major league career as a shortstop but has agreed to shift to second base in 2007, when he's expected to be Washington's leadoff hitter.

* Ramon Ortiz, who won 11 games for Washington agreed to a one-year, $3.1 million, contract with the Minnesota Twins.

* Jason Michaels, an outfielder for the Indians, finalized a two-year, $4.25 million contract, a deal that includes a $100,000 signing bonus and $2.6 million club option for 2009.

* Justin Duchscherer and Oakland avoided arbitration, agreeing to a one-year, $1,187,500 contract.

* The San Diego Padres doesn't expect to finalize its deal with left-hander David Wells until next week.

Also, expect the New York Yankees 2007 Preview posted to the blog later this afternoon or early this evening, I am about halfway done...
