Well the Blue Jays system did wonders for Joey Bats. Not saying Valbuena will improve like that but hey may improve enough to be a benchwarmer instead of a paperweight.

Stay connected to Hardball Talk for more news from the Lukewarm Stove League. Or go retro and look for stuff like this in the newspaper, in that tiny agate type, under the ECHL standings and above the Division II assistant coaching changes.

They plan to use Harry’s house near Scranton for target practice.

The Jays have a habit of acquiring backup infielders from the Indians. They probably know Cleveland’s farm system better than Cleveland.

I think I’ll file this under stories I shall keep an eye on. I have no idea who this kid is but if Anthopolus doesn’t shore up 2nd base and re-sign Kelly Johnson, then I fear I’ll be seeing a lot of Luis Valbuena. Can’t tell much from 44 plate appearances, though. Kind of hard to develop as a player with that kind of playing time.

Can I file this under stories I really don’t care about?
