[TZ]

Free-agent slugger Josh Hamilton agreed to a five-year, $125 million contract Thursday with the Los Angeles Angels, sources told ESPN.com.

Hamilton's former team, the Texas Rangers, had been in negotiations to retain the 2010 MVP. Hamilton's camp had also reportedly met with the Mariners at the winter meetings.

Wow, just wow. Could be brilliant move or could absolutely destroy the team.

11. If he goes, Morse stays

I will miss the Morse walkup song ritual if he is traded.

12. I like LaRoche

But I LOVE Morse! It helps that he tweets me fairly regularly on twitter. Really is a nice guy.

14. They have money to burn

so destroying the Angels is impossible but I don't see how it could hurt.
