Updating a previous report, Larry LaRue, of The Tacoma News Tribune, reports the Philadelphia Phillies re-signed SP Jamie Moyer to a two-year deal worth $16 million Monday, Dec. 15.
News: Jamie Moyer agreed Monday to a two-year contract that keeps the 46-year-old left-hander with the World Series champion Phillies. "I'm sure if you ask Jamie, he'll say that he will play out a few more contracts," Phillies GM Ruben Amaro Jr. said Monday.

"If his stuff does go backward, he'll try to figure it out and how to pitch through it," Amaro said. "That's the beauty of Jamie Moyer."
Analysis: Moyer went 16-7 with a 3.71 ERA in 33 starts last season and is 35-21 with a 4.33 ERA in 74 starts since the Phillies acquired him from Seattle in August 2006.

He has proven capable into his mid-40s, though, averaging 15 victories the past two years with the Phillies. Consider him a sleeper in deeper leagues for his wins potential with a top contender, but expect an ERA over 4.00, a low strikeout total and a stay or two on the DL perhaps
