Braves are signing McCann.
Are they also bringing back Andruw Jones and Julio Franco?
Braves are signing McCann.
Also, supposedly Patrick Corbin has at least one big deal on the table, he was looking for Darvish money (6/$125) - from the tweeters I read, looks like most speculate is was either Phillies the Yankees or both.
Jeff Passan saying the Mariners are getting close to dealing Cano & Diaz to the Mets. Would be such a mets thing to do.

Phillies looking at both Machado and Jean Segura.
I guess in a perfect Seattle world, Crawford becomes Segura and is significantly cheaper but shouldn't taking back Santana increase their reported return?
Segura is signed pretty long term for big$ ($60 million). Santana's contract is part of the money match required for the trade.
Segura's contract is extremely favorable to a team with money to spend. Plus his power numbers would likely match his AZ days given the ballpark. I'd bet the Phillies still eat most of Santana's contract.
I'd be surprised if Machado signs in Philly now, given his stated preference to play SS.
Machado will take the biggest deal on the table regardless of position.
