Just as soon as I thought the Marlins gave up on acquiring Luis Gonzalez, he ups-and-agrees to join the club, pending a physical. He says the delay was because of his father's recent death, but it's also reported that he wanted additional incentives in his deal, which he got.
Gonzo, who got his career 2000th hit against Florida in 2004, will be this year's designated 'veteran presence', along with being Hammer's 'back'-up in left (if Willingham's disc flares up again).
Another recovering spine patient is Dallas McPherson, signed up yesterday to compete in the battle royale for third base.
