Justin Upton rumors:

quote:

@pedrogomezESPN: Phillies and Diamondbacks are discussing Justin Upton for Cliff Lee. Money coming to AZ would also be involved.


quote:

@JeffPassan: Arizona discussing all sorts of three- and four-way deals to get shortstop. Upton for Cliff Lee (per @pedrogomezESPN) could just be a start.


quote:

@nickpiecoro: Dbacks source tells me the Upton/Lee stuff "hasn't been discussed" and is "off base."


quote:

Ruben strongly shoots down Lee Arizona rumor. It is false, he says.


quote:

#dbacks are talking to a few on upton. would like profar/andrus, andrelton or asdrubal. wont do m's nick franklin. 2 young


quote:

Justin Upton has drawn active interest from 3 teams today: Mariners, Rangers, Indians. @MLBONFOX

Also, AJ to Yanks?

@Plesac19: Rumor making its way thru hallways at the #WinterMeetings in Nashville... AJ and the #yankees in serious discussion. Yanks need a catcher.

Victorino to Sox?

@jcrasnick: Things are moving fast with Shane Victorino. Source says #redsox are in "good position'' to seal the deal.

Lots of talk happens

JeffPassan: RT/ Source insists Diamondbacks aren't actively talking Cliff Lee for Justin Upton.


The DBacks would have better options

I'm thinking Hamilton to Texas and than maybe Andrus for Upton. And hopefully they can sign Grienke too.

At the beginning of the offseason I had Hamilton going to Boston or Milwaukee with Texas having an outside chance, but the market has seemed relatively cool on him. And Grienke I had going to Boston or LAD.

But things seem to be going in the Rangers favor at the winter meetings.

I'm sad to not see any Cardinals rumors. Was hoping they'd make a move

The Braves have signed catcher Matt Pagnozzi to a Minor Lg. contract. Pagnozzi will likely serve as ATL's backup until McCann returns

I think so too because the Dodgers are going to give him a stupid contract.

If that happens, I think they will trade for a pitcher and Andrus for Upton would be on the backburner.
