Looks like the Dodgers were doing some showcasing last night, found this from Chris Cotillo:

Pulled a player so they could move Kyle Farmer from catcher to third base.

 

Although probably unrelated. I'm Still hoping Larry King has some insight and we do make a trade with the Dodgers, hopefuly including Puig.

 

I'm hoping for Puig as well.

Looks like the Cubs are getting close to a deal, was watching Kap and Haugh earlier and they were talking about one of the Cubs Minor leaguers, one of their big international signings was pulled from a game and supposedly his teammates were seen giving hugs and tweeting goodbyes.

 

If there's one thing I hate is being overshadowed by the media kissing the Cubs butts no matter what the trade will be, you watch, after its done they'll be the popular pick for WS

That was last night and so far nothing ever came from it.

Sorry was doing some work didn't hear the whole segment so wasn't sure if it was last night or this am. Thanks for clarifying.

Well the Cubs player was only pulled to be called up to triple-a so much ado about nothing.

Eloy Jimenez tweaked something

I don't know what the Cubs would get back but that makes sense as a place for Baez. They can struggle for a couple years while giving him PAs and he absolutely has the power to hit the ball out of that ballpark.

Shields? Upton? Kimbrell? Combination of those?

I think Kimbrel is worth more than those, Baez does make sense as a possible return for either of the first 2 IMO. I'm also pretty down on Baez though, so "a rental OF" or "a starting pitcher where the Cubs take on a ton of money" are the way I read those.

I presume if Shields goes, it is a salary dump and they don't get much (even though I think he's paid relatively fairly, I don't see Cubs giving up someone like Baez for him. I could see Upton for Baez though.

Rumor is Cubs want Ross and Kimbrel for a Baez-led package

There are new people in the Padres front office since the Rizzo/Cashner deal, right? Don't want the Cubs making a blatant steal again

Baez, Torres, McKinney?

I think that's fair, but Cubs won't do that. That's their 3 best hitting prospects not in the majors.

I don't think we can guarantee that the Padres FO won't be hired by the Cubs this offseason.

@jaysonst: #Tigers called teams today & told them they're "rebooting." Will listen on David Price, Cespedes etc. More to come at http://t.co/gtnhE81RUu

LOL The Tigers have been all over the place publicly in what they are and are not doing.

The have had more in and outs than the hokey pokey.

I think the Tigers will make a surge in August with Cabrera back. I think Dombrowski is a clever guy and I wouldn't be surprised it he went out and got another pitcher.

Do they even have a date for Cabrera starting rehab stint? IIRC that was still up in the air.

Mets looking for an OF bat.

Texas/San Diego talks have cooled

Looks like Holliday injured his quad again.
