Some speculation below from a variety of sources on the aftermath of the Marlins' signing of Carlos Delgado. Will it result in a chain reaction of moves, including a quick deal for Magglio Ordonez and renewed interest in Sammy Sosa from teams still seeking a slugger? Much to ponder, but little to report.

According to New York Newsday, the Yankees will sign for their bench either Doug Glanville or Tom Goodwin. Don't know what that does for the ex-Cub factor this year, but it must mean George Steinbrenner has finally run out of money.
