Talk of something around Ozuna to the Mariners for pitching.

I get that they want Papelbon off the team (and I don't blame them), but that seems like selling low on both guys, then buying high on Chapman.
Hm, just realized that Storen is due a raise on a $5.7MM salary.
The Dodgers have at least discussed the possibility of signing both Greinke and Price internally, according to Rosenthal, but they’re unlikely to go that route. Even the Dodgers and their seemingly limitless budget aren’t keen on the notion of paying three starters in the vicinity of $30MM annually, and they already have one such pitcher in Clayton Kershaw.
Looks like the tigs getting zimmerman at 5/$110 - seems like really good deal.
Agree that it was a good deal. That said, his velocity was down in 2015, and he has thrown a lot of innings over the last 4 years.
Reports out that the Braves really want Jorge Soler - Cubs looking at Teheran or Miller.
What's the consensus with him?
Super high ceiling, but low floor too - big bat, hits for lots of power, K's a bunch, has a cannon for an arm, but still not a great defender, takes bad routes, will only be a corner OF - good contract (5/$22). If he lives up to potential, he is Gary Sheffield, but needs to start being more selective at the pro level, his BB% is half of what it was in the minors.
7/$217 for Price with the Red Sox. Wowza - word is the Cubs were not in the bidding, someone must have, $31 AAV is pretty awesome.
