Free-agent OF Johnny Damon (Rays) is biding his time, as he looks for a major league deal. "I think I signed with Tampa Bay last year around this time, and the year before I signed (with Detroit) in February," said Damon. "Even if I have to go into March, I'll do that. I'm in good shape. I'm going through my workouts." Damon is 277 hits shy of 3,000 for his career.
