#Athletics are looking at Asdrubal Cabrera and Stephen Drew as shortstop replacements. Story via @jaspsch: http://www.mlbdailydish.com/2014/11/10/718...nd-stephen-drew

 

 

Forgot about Cabrera. With the Cubs (Castro/Baez/Russell), Lowrie, Drew and then Punto/Sogard as internal options, Alexei Ramirez has some competition.

Wouldn't shock me if it's for Castro. If Cubs get Zimmermann and then sign Lester/Martin....well, they have a chance to be damn good

Could very well be Castro. I'm sure its more than Castro but he makes sense. Zimmerman, Lester and Arrieta is a pretty formidable front 3.

Going off of last year's stats, it would easily be the best in baseball. Hopefully it's not for Baez, as I don't think he's a difference maker.

Zimmerman is a monster.

 

How many years does he have until FA?

 

I would ask for more than Castro if I was the Nationals...Castro and CJ Edwards, maybe. They definitely can't afford to accept Baez and Edwards alone after what happened last year with those two guys. Even if Alcantara was added as a sweetener.

1 year before free agency, but sounds like Cubs will only do the deal if they can extend him.

Zimmerman is worth way more than Castro. Nats need to dig deep if they are moving Zimmerman

#Padres are reportedly willing to listen on starters Kennedy, Ross and Cashner. Story via @Brian_Baker_: http://sbnation.com/e/6969326

Among possibilities #Braves are considering: Trading a reliever for a back-end starter.

I wonder what kind of ridiculous package it'd take to get Cashner.
