Baseball Player News: Tony Graffanino (2b) BOS
News: Graffanino was placed on revocable waivers by the Red Sox, the Boston Herald reports. Views: Graffanino had a nice enough run late last season with the Sox to get a new deal with them,... |

I would be very surprised if he went to KC as a backup to Grudz if he has a shot at signing with St Louis and competing for the starting gig. |

I predict the Sox will trade him to the Cards for Pujols, since the Sox need a first baseman. |

Looks like our KC fan friend was correct. From Rotoworld:
| Quote: |
Royals claimed infielder Tony Graffanino off waivers from the Red Sox.
So much for Esteban German as our big AL-only sleeper. Graffanino will get nearly all of the at-bats that don't go to Royals' regular infielders. He should start in place of Doug Mientkiewicz or Mark Teahen against left-handers and get in a game per week at second base in place of the injury-prone Mark Grudzielanek. He'll have a little value in fantasy leagues |

I guess the Royals really thought the Cards or someone else were going to jump all over T Graff. If they waited a couple of days, they could've perhaps gotten him for the league minimum. |

They can always trade him again, can't they?

I would guess that's their plan, though they will most likely have to hold onto him until June/July. |
