We're all over the Jose Valverde situation today as Nick Piecoro adds in this note about the Diamondbacks and Valverde:"Still curious to see what becomes of the situation with RHP Jose Valverde The Diamondbacks remain interested in bringing him back at their price, of course. A scenario the Diamondbacks would consider: Offering him a one-year deal at a lower based salary than what he’s seeking, say, $5 million, along with a promise not to offer him arbitration after 2010. The Diamondbacks would not have to surrender their first-round pick, and Valverde would have the chance to put up big numbers in Arizona and become an attractive free agent on the market next winter.This scenario would be similar to what happened to Juan Cruz last winter, except that he signed with the Royals on a two-year deal, not just one.
