Matt Clement, P, St. Louis Cardinals

Thursday 1/3, 4:36 PM CT

Matt Clement signed a one-year deal with the Cardinals Thursday. Terms of the deal aren't known, but it's thought to be an incentive-based deal that includes a club option for 2009, according to the St. Louis Post-Dispatch. "Matt is a very talented pitcher who has been beset by injury the last few years," Cardinals general manager John Mozeliak said in a statement released by the team. "Based on our findings from his rehabilitation last season and his recent physical, we feel that he can be a solid addition to our starting rotation, and should have no limitations upon reporting to spring training." Clement, who did not pitch at all in 2007, will compete for a rotation spot this spring.

Johan Santana, P, New York Mets

Thursday 1/3, 11:11 AM CT

Hank Steinbrenner believes the Yankees have made the top offer for Johan Santana, according to the NY Daily News. "I think the Twins realize our offer is the best one," Steinbrenner said Wednesday in a telephone interview. "I feel confident they're not going to trade him before checking with us one last time and I think they think we've already made the best offer." It's unclear exactly what the proposed deal includes, but it's been speculated that it includes, Phil Hughes, Melky Cabrera, Jeff Marquez and possibly another prospect.

Jorge Cantu, 3B, Florida Marlins

Thursday 1/3, 10:28 AM CT

The Marlins could be close to inking Jorge Cantu to a deal. He would compete with Jose Castillo for the third base job. "It's a situation that's intriguing to Jorge," Cantu's agent, Steve Canter said in the Sun-Sentinel. "There's a definite connection here. A lot of the front office that was in Tampa is over in Florida now and they're fully aware of his abilities. He had a really strong finish to the season so he'll get a lot of interest from several clubs, but this could end up working out." The Fish are also looking at Dallas McPherson for the hot corner.
