Athletics signed INF Dallas McPherson to a minor league contract.
The deal comes with an invitation to spring training. McPherson, who at one time was a highly touted prospect, has battled injuries throughout his career and is now 29 years old. He has 150 home runs and a .586 career slugging percentage in 608 minor league games but also carries a lousy .245/.298/.458 career batting line on the major league level.

Giants signed infielder Dallas McPherson to a minor league contract.
McPherson is expected to head to Triple-A Fresno after spending a few days at extended spring training. He was once a highly regarded prospect in the Angels organization, though he was most recently with the Marlins.

According to Henry Schulman of the San Francisco Chronicle, the Giants have signed Dallas McPherson to a minor league contract.
McPherson, a former top prospect, was released by the Marlins at the end of spring training. The Giants will get him started at Triple-A Fresno. "There's always a hope in our minds than anyone in our minor-league system has an upside," VP of baseball operations Bobby Evans said Saturday when asked about the 28-year-old's potential. "It's hard to argue with his bat."

Marlins released third baseman Dallas McPherson.
Our expectations for the Marlins get lower by the hour. Because of the foolish decision to re-sign Wes Helms to a guaranteed contract, the team is now in a position to have an entirely right-handed bench. It's not even a good right-handed bench. Ronny Paulino and Helms are only acceptable against left-handers, and Robert Andino and Brett Carroll have yet to show they can be useful major leaguers at all. Those four combined to hit .223 with nine homers and a 118/33 K/BB ratio in 449 major league at-bats last season. McPherson is hardly a sure thing, but he sure seemed like a great fit for a team going with a light-hitting righty at third. Hopefully, he's able to quickly find a fit elsewhere.
 Gaby Sanchez-1B - Marlins Mar. 31 - 3:26 pm et  

Marlins optioned first baseman Gaby Sanchez and RHP Burke Badenhop to Triple-A New Orleans.
Sanchez looked like the favorite to start at first base early in camp, but hit just .194 in 36 at-bats while being limited by a knee injury. He figures to be in Florida to stay at some point this season, but in the meantime the Marlins appear set to go with Emilio Bonifacio at third base while sliding Jorge Cantu across the diamond to first base. That would greatly improve the defense, but Bonifacio will be among baseball's worst-hitting third basemen. Dallas McPherson would also be in the corner infield mix if he makes the team.

Dallas McPherson returned to action on Thursday and walked three times against the Orioles.
The six days off due to an oblique injury may have doomed McPherson's chances of making the Marlins, but it could very well be for the best that he get out of Florida anyway. The Astros, Cardinals and Mariners are three teams that should consider taking a chance on him if he hits the waiver wire.
