• The Denver Post was the first place I saw details on the Willy Taveras deal: 2 years, $6.25 million. For a guy with no power. MLB.com has additional details, as well as this line from Mark Sheldon: That makes for a financially solid rebound for Taveras, who was non-tendered by the Rockies on Dec. 12.
• The Dragons have replaced turncoat Jamie Dismuke with Todd Benzinger. (See last week's post for more background.) Benzinger was going to be their hitting coach; now he's their skipper.
• Another former Red, Josh Hamilton, tells his story to Esquire magazine.
• CBSSports.com's Gary Parrish once again writes about Bearcat hoops.
• New UC preview stuff: FOX Sports' Rich Cirminiello explains why he likes the Bearcats, 23-19. And Bill Koch's notebook points out that Bill Parcells and Cris Carter addressed Brian Kelly's squad today.
• Solid piece from SI.com's Stewart Mandel (Sycamore HS) about how the Big Ten needs Penn State to perform well against USC.
• Non-local link of interest: The New York Post says Bill Cowher won't take the Jets' job because he doesn't want to coach Brett Favre. And after Favre threw Eric Mangini under the bus, can you blame him?
