QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Dec 6, 2017 -> 05:01 PM) Ghostridethewhip.mp4 I loved that video in high school, also love the reference.

Jeff Passan @JeffPassan now Sources: Shohei Ohtani is done interviewing the seven finalists to sign him. His last meeting was actually Tuesday night with the San Diego Padres. Next, presumably, will be his decision. Timetable is not clear yet, but it could well be soon.

Jesse Sanchez @JesseSanchezMLB now Another former Braves prospect has agreed to a deal with a new team. Source: Shortstop Livan Soto has agreed to a $850K deal with the Angels. The Angels have also agreed to a $2.2M deal with Kevin Maitan. @MLBPipeline

Buster Olney @Buster_ESPN 10s The Angels have agreed to terms with infielder Kevin Maitan, who was made a free agent after MLB ruled the Braves violated rules in signing him.

Bob Nightengale @BNightengale Several #MLB GMs now believe that the Seattle #Mariners are the clear-cut front runners for Ohtani's services and the Mariners are cautiously optimistic

Jon Heyman @JonHeyman 11s pirates are out on ohtani. field remains west coast heavy, though there may be an exception or 2.

Craig Mish @CraigMish Source : Stanton trade expected to be finalized in the next 2-3 days.

Mike Berardino @MikeBerardino 2m Sources briefed on Ohtani cutdown tell me "heavy West Coast" flavor to final list. #Cubs a possible exception along with SEA, SF, SD and both LA clubs.

Ken Rosenthal @Ken_Rosenthal now Per source, #Athletics also out on Ohtani, so not every west-coast team is in mix.

Jon Heyman @JonHeyman now sources: the twins are out on the ohtani derby, too.

Pete Abraham @PeteAbe The Red Sox also are out on Ohtani. Dave Dombrowski said they were informed this afternoon.

Brendan Kuty @BrendanKutyNJ Ohtani has told #yankees they won’t sign with them, Cashman says

Jon Morosi @jonmorosi #STLCards meeting with Giancarlo Stanton's reps does not necessarily mean trade agreement is in place with #Marlins, but talks have reached serious stage -- as is also the case with #SFGiants. @MLB @MLBNetwork

Jon Morosi @jonmorosi now Sources: #STLCards officials have a meeting with Giancarlo Stanton today in Los Angeles. @MLB @MLBNetwork

Chicago White Sox @whitesox now The #WhiteSox have agreed to terms on a one-year, $1.05-million contract with right-handed pitcher Danny Farquhar, avoiding arbitration.

QUOTE (Jose Paniagua @ Dec 1, 2017 -> 12:18 PM) Due to the misspelling, my thread shouldve gone over this one. I bat a goddam 1000 dammit. If you ain't first you're last lol

Matthew Pouliot @matthewpouliot Castillo's pitch-framing numbers got a lot better last year, making him more attractive. Still kind of surprising as an in-between move for a White Sox team still rebuilding. Doubt it's just a one-year deal.

Ken Rosenthal @Ken_Rosenthal 8s Source: Welington Castillo to #WhiteSox. EDIT: Can someone please adjust the thread title, I accidentally added an extra "L" in Welington.

Jon Morosi @jonmorosi now Source: Kevin Maitan and newly ex-#Braves prospects expected to be eligible to sign with other @MLB teams beginning approximately two weeks from now. @MLBNetwork

Jeff Passan @JeffPassan 1m Other penalties: The Braves will not be allowed to sign 14-year-old shortstop Robert Puason, the top player in the class of 2019, with whom they had illegally struck a deal. Atlanta also will lose a third-round draft pick in 2018 for offering inducements to a drafted player. Jeff Passan @JeffPassan BREAKING: Star prospect Kevin Maitan is one of 12 Atlanta Braves minor leaguers expected to be declared a free agent after league investigation, sources tell Yahoo Sports. In addition, Braves will suffer significant restrictions in 2019-20 and 2020-21 international FA classes.

Ben Badler @BenBadler now Confirmed the Braves will lose two more players who signed for $1 million. They will lose more players as well: bit.ly/2hTLUDk
