Also seems like the Rockies plan to mostly play Desmond at 1B, which seems like a puzzling waste of his defensive value. I'm not even sure his bat plays at first base.

It doesn't. But he doesn't really have much defensive value elsewhere (unless you value poor defense). It's just a really bad signing. I wouldn't trade the 11th pick in the draft for him straight up.

Does this mean the Royals are going to resign Holland?

Unless their budget is a lot lower than last year, that just doesn't make sense. Or better yet, don't give a 5-11 pitcher with a 5.25 ERA in a pitcher's ballpark $10 million.

Anyone in the market for an oft-injured 34-year-old outfielder?

That's a good deal for KC

Don't really like getting 1 year of Davis for soler, especially with that forearm trouble. Often a precursor to TJ but obviously he checked out I guess

Thinking extension is agreed upon. Wade and Maddon go back

If the cubs extend him this trade will be extremely one sided.

That's just stupid

Twitter says he has physical today and everything checked out

ETA glad to see soler get everyday ABs, too

So I guess Soler will play a lot of DH for the Royals?

I've learned over the last few years to not doubt anything that Theo and Jed do. If they think it's a good deal, it's fine with me.

Did you see the stats I posted a few pages back. Unreal.

Only pitcher in history with B2B seasons with less than 1 ERA with 50 IP.

There's an increasing sense among teams in the elite-closer market that Kenley Jansen and Aroldis Chapman could be close to decisions

Market seems to be working in #Dodgers favor to resign Kenley Jansen. Draft pick attached is scaring some teams off.

I want the Cubbies to keep Chapman but what he's rumored to be asking is steep.

That's not happening. Aroldis seems like NYY or Miami bound with LA and Washington being other possibilities depending on Jansen
