AOL taps Leo Burnett for re-branding
2009-09-04 23:09:00 AOL is spinning out of Time Warner and needs to reposition itself for the new digital world. So it may come as some surprise that it picked Chicago ad agency Leo Burnett to reinvent the brand. Leo is the venerable (a word we used to describe companies that have been around forever) agency best known for having old-school clients like Coca-Cola and Kellogg (they're venerable too) and for not landing big new accounts. Is the AOL win a sign of Leo's resurgence? Here's the story....

Yankees Land AJ Burnett
2008-12-13 11:51:00 The New York Yankees dipped into their oversized wallets yet again and signed pitcher AJ Burnett to a five year contract worth $82.5 million. Last year, the often injured hurler had a great second half. Overall, his record was 18-11 with an ERA of 4.07. For him, it was a great season with many tremendous starts against the Boston Red Sox and his new team. It's a gamble the Yankees are taking though...Burnett rarely pitches more than 200 innings, as he did in '08. Hankie Steinbrenner had this to say after his club picked up its second starting pitcher within one week..."I can sense the excitement and the confidence that's spreading around the entire organization about what we're getting done and what we may get done still," the Yankees' co-chairman told The Associated Press before news of the Burnett deal came out Friday. "A rising tide lifts all boats, and the confidence and the excitement right now among the team and the organization is contagious."Peter here. Does he mean con...

Obama Draws Jason Burnett, Former Bush EPA Official

One such person is Jason Burnett, the now former EPA official who criticized the Bush administration for rejecting California's request for a federal waiver that would have allowed the state to enforce greenhouse gas restrictions.According to the LA Times, Burnett's burning issue is Global Warming:Now Burnett is talking with his checkbook, too. After submitting his resignation last month, he donated $3,600 to Democrat Barack Obama's presidential campaign. That came on top of a $1,000 contribution he made to Obama before rejoining the EPA last year. A Stanford-trained economist and a Democrat, Burnett, 31, said in an interview that he was moving back to Northern California to campaign for Obama and Rep. Sam Farr (D-Carmel). He said he was counting on them to support steppe...

Rosenthal's Latest: Blanton, Furcal, Penny, Burnett, Greinke
2008-06-01 11:42:00 The latest from Ken Rosenthal's Full Count video: The Braves called the A's about Joe Blanton but did not even come close to meeting Billy Beane's price. The Dodgers may not want to lock up Rafael Furcal, the oft-injured shortstop, to a long term contract. Also, with Brad Penny's struggles, they may pass on his 2009 club option and trade him this season. They'd get something in return rather than pay his $2MM buyout in the offseason. The only way the Jays will trade A.J. Burnett is if they fall completely out of contention. Otherwise, he is a cornerstone to their only chance: "pitching teams into the ground." The Royals could field offers for Zack Greinke. Their farm system has thinned and they could replace Greinke in the rotation with Joakim Soria. By Nat Boyle

Meek DFA, Burnett Recalled
2008-05-04 17:27:00 Evan Meek was designated for assignment this morning to make room for the recall of Sean Burnett. Burnett has been excellent for Indy out of the pen posting a 0.98 ERA in 12 appearances over 17 1/3 innings. BTW Take: Well, it is a day early to make me look like a mastermind. I did call for a move last week to send Meek back. In the return of the Pittsburgh Pirates Round Table (should be up in the next day or so), I actually called this move a couple days ago. This move makes perfect sense. Meek, while touted for a 97 MPH fastball, discovered if he throws it 89-92 he can control it better. Only problem is, he is still wild but with a league average fastball. In his most recent outing, he never topped 92 on the radar gun while being wildly erratic to the point of being unexplainably effective. Over the last 2 outings he threw twice as many balls as strike but escaped due to the double play and anxious hitters chasing balls ...

Odds and Ends: Perez, Jones, Howard, Burnett
2008-02-16 11:48:00 Let's round up today's linkage. No more long-term discussions with Oliver Perez and the Mets. Andruw Jones already wants to talk extension with the Dodgers. The Cardinals are not likely to make anymore acquisitions. In my view the team has question marks in right field, the middle infield, and the rotation. Here's a look at their MLB.com depth chart. By the way, could Ryan Franklin be a league average starter? They could try it if the current options don't pan out. Jim Salisbury thinks the Ryan Howard contract situation is a nonstory. I think this is partially because (and I hope this doesn't sound condescending) most fans do not understand the arbitration process. Anyway Salisbury's source says the Phillies would match Chase Utley's seven-year, $85MM deal and might approach $100MM. He says Howard may want "significantly more." Ivan Rodriguez would like to play beyond the 2008 season and retire a Tiger. If the Tigers can't find...

The Future Of Halladay And Burnett
2008-02-09 12:40:00 Richard Griffin writes about the rising salaries of ace pitchers these days. He suggests that Roy Halladay, signed through 2010, could enter the $18MM+ club with his next contract. The best move for Toronto will probably be to let Halladay play out his current deal and leave. He'll be 34 for the 2011 season, and his numbers have already begun slipping. And will the forearm strains from '06 resurface in the next three seasons? Then there's 31 year-old A.J. Burnett. Griffin, Mark Zwolinski, and Cathal Kelly discuss his situation here. They accurately assess Burnett's post-'08 opt-out clause as lose-lose for Toronto. If he pitches 180 decent innings, he opts for free agency because he can top the remaining two years and $24MM on his deal. If he doesn't, the Jays are stuck paying an injured pitcher. It's funny though that Burnett's five-year, $55MM deal signed in December of 2005 seemed mind-blowing at the time.
