#Brooklyn Royal Giants
And the rich get richer … Brooklyn has wooed Red Ruffing–an All Star last season–away from the cross town Black Yankees. Ruffing’s arrival, on a 3 year deal worth nearly $30M, would seem to be an initial domino, as the Royal Giants look to turn some of their pitching excess into better offense.
#Indianapolis ABC’s
Looking for options to backup Johnny Bench, the ABC’s signed Charlie Bennett to a 3 year, $5.6M deal. At worst, Bennett offers a strong defensive option, at best a moderately active bat.
