Rangers are reportedly still in contact with the White Sox and Rays regarding Sale and Archer.

Sale or Archer won't get moved until the summer IF they get moved at all. I can't see either team doing it unless the prospects are outstanding.


The Mets trying to lowball the Brewers for Lucroy is kinda amusing.


One deal I am waiting for is the Reds to unload Jay Bruce and others. I mean Brandon Phillips, Bruce, Cozart, among other could be moved

What I've heard on Archer is that his numbers are bad since there are a lot of "hitter-friendly" ball parks in the AL East. However, Globe Life and Minute Maid are also hitter-friendly, so I'd be concerned that his numbers wouldn't be any better here.

Sale is a concern due to his recent meltdown. The Rangers' clubhouse chemistry is why they haven't completely imploded and I wouldn't want to see them add a troublemaker to destroy that (especially since his "apology" was him shifting blame on the White Sox management). Then again, White Sox management is really bad FWIH so maybe he'd do better with a change of scenery.
