    Dotel agrees to terms with White Sox

    Right-hander Octavio Dotel and the Chicago White Sox agreed Tuesday on an $11-million, two-year contract, bolstering a bullpen that ranked among the majors' worst last season.

    Dotel will earn $5 million this year and $6 million in 2009.
    Looks like Dotel really cashed in...
    "They asked me if I wanted the ball in Game 6, and I said yes. I'll always say yes. That's what I did with Jack McKeon. I told him, 'Let me see how I feel tomorrow.' I went out, did a long toss, came in and said, 'I'll pitch, I want it, I want to do it.' And it ended up working out." -Josh Beckett

    I had a feeling the Braves wouldn't wouldn't resign him.

    This move makes a lot more sense than giving up 3 good players for Nick Swisher.
