Mike Adams' option was declined by the Phillies. That's definitely a guy I see the Sox calling.

The Tigers have picked up Joakim Soria's option, I'm being told.

 

Good, I hope he serves up more 89 mph **** shots to the Sox hitters.

He'd be a nice setup man to have.

Source: Despite mutual interest in #Padres reunion, Josh Johnson will test market and hear offers from other teams before making decision.

Tigers extend qualifying offers to Scherzer and Martinez. Makes Martinez less likely now.

 

Andy Dirks was also claimed by the Blue Jays.

 

Tigers also out righted Don Kelly and Evan Reed

I don't think this makes VMart any less likely, as there was always a 100% chance he would get a QO.

Agreed.

Well, it was more like 99.999%, but whatever.

I'd be stunned if the White Sox gave up their 2nd rounder and the ability to spend that bonus number to sign Victor Martinez. Stunned.

Same here and I would be equally stunned if Martinez had any interest in coming to a 73 win team like the Sox.

brewers have exercised the $14M mutual option for aramis ramirez. he has 3 days to accept or decline.

Chad Billingsley's 2015 option was just bought out by the Dodgers and is now a free agent.

Alex Rios is now represented by Scott Boras. lol

Pretty interesting and perhaps telling that the Sox didn't claim Justin Smoak or Andy Dirks. Hahn has his sights set higher.

Or the Sox front office is awful at scouting hitting talent.

 

Inb4 "BUT THEY GOT ABREU". Exception to the rule.

Im not gonna disagree with the premise, but i wouldnt say failing to go after Smoak and Dirks prove it. Smoak has been pretty terrible and Dirks is just a guy(who just had back surgery end his season)

Blue Jays decline option on Sergio Santos.

 

It appears that the Twins will hire Paul Molitar as their next manager.

Cubs exercised the option on P Jacob Turner

 

Royals decline option on DH Billy Butler as expected.

 

Blue Jays decline options on Morrow, McGowan and Smoak. Morrow could be an interesting option.

LOL indeed

Play hardball - for the services of Rios.

 

 

Blue Jays give Melky Cabrera qualifying offer.

They brought him and and declined his option? What?

His option was 3.65 million. Buyout was 150K. He's still arbitration eligible, they think he'll make less in arbitration.
