Here are a few links that I found interesting for Sunday:

Nick Cafardo of the Boston Globe complies a list of the best remaining free agents by position including Russell Branyan (1B), Orlando Hudson (2B), Adam Kennedy (3B), Rod Barajas (C), Hank Blalock (DH), Johnny Damon (CF) and many more.

The Detroit Tigers need to add at least one bat with “game-breaking power” according to Lynn Henning of The Detroit News.

Bill Madden of The NY Daily News says that Twin’s manager Ron Gardenhire is confident that Joe Mauer will sign a long-term contract before Spring Training.

According to Terry Pluto of The Plain Dealer, the Cleveland Indians may bring Russell Branyan into camp if Branyan finds that no team is offering him a multi-year deal.

According to Bill Madden of the NY Daily News, former San Diego Padres GM Kevin Towers may join the New York Yankees as a special assignment scout to Yankees’ GM Brian Cashman

According to Bill Ladson of MLB.com, he Tweets: #Nats GM Mike Rizzo said RHP Stephen Strasburg will be on the Opening Day roster if he has a great Spring Training.
