Learning Curve: Ammendments to Prior Posts Re. Happ and Cecil


So, new to this blogging thing, I haven't been citing sources or using hyperlinks yet. I can't tell you where I got my previous contract info from now because I didn't keep track of my sources.

Due to new-found info, I have to ammend my previous posts regarding  Brett Cecil and JA Happ. Gregor Chisholm of mlb.com reports that Happ has a 2013 option, and Cecil does not. Soooooo... I have to invert my prior statements.  It looks like Happ may be the one starting his season in AAA, and Cecil (hopefully) will be starting the season with TO.

I'm really rooting for Cecil to be successful in that lefty relief capacity.  I really think he has the tools to be great at the major league level, and would hate hate HATE to see him lost to another team via waivers. Having seen him pitch that complete game shut-out, I can imagine him stretching into extended appearances, or long relief.

Happ seems like an awful expensive contract for a AAA call-up option. So regardless of that contract option, I think we'll see alot of him in 2013, even if he does begin the season in Buffalo.

And now that I've figured out the hyper-links to other sites, I will be trying to cite my sources going forward.
