Kaplan just said Alex Cobb is getting offers in the $80-90 million for 4 years. Pitching is getting very expensive.

This deal really helps the market for other sluggers at the $20 million per valuation. Hosmer now absolutely will be looking for $150+ million.

This can only help Abreu's trade market.

Moore to Texas for prospects

It took like 4 google searches, many of which turned up the town of Moore, Texas, and Roy Moore getting support from Texans. A link just woulda been nice.

Four whole google searches the horror

Have a flipping week Phili

I'm pumped for Swarzak and I hope he kills it in NY.

 

Unfortunately there won't be any leads to protect

Preston Tucker was DFA'd yesterday. Wonder what Houston is looking for in return.

If he was DFAd, can't he just be claimed off waivers for nothing?

Nope.

 

When a player's contract is designated for assignment -- often abbreviated "DFA" -- that player is immediately removed from his club's 40-man roster. Within seven days of the transaction (had been 10 days under the 2012-16 Collective Bargaining Agreement), the player can either be traded or placed on irrevocable outright waivers.

Bob Nightengale‏Verified account @BNightengale 1h1 hour ago Realmuto and Yelich understandably don't want to be the last marquee player standing in #Marlins rebuild, but #Marlins plan for both to be on opening day roster, particularly Realmuto, who is considered close to untouchable.

 

Marlin's situation looks to be a disaster. Realmuto and Yelich are not pleased and both reportedly are looking to get out.

Bit of a surprise: #RedSox announce signing of free-agent 1B Mitch Moreland to a two-year contract.

Boston must really not have liked the asking prices of free agents and in trades to sign Moreland for two years. He's not a terrible player by any means, but when you are competing in a division with the Yankees I'm sure fans were looking for a more robust move.

 

If they sign JD Martinez that might appease fans?

That is another road for Abreu shutdown.
