Kelly Johnson ---> Rays per Rosenthal

Zobrist either goes to SS or OF then...or they trade him.

The trade speculation and where Zorilla stands in the field was more idle speculation than anything :lol: He's got an extremely team-friendly contract for his production and you'd probably have to wait for him to opt out before you actually get him. I doubt the Rays trade him since they should still be contenders...

Chris Carpenter unlikely to pitch this year.

Hasn't been the same since after we won the WS in '11. Wasn't really expecting much out of him this season.

This now opens the door for one of our minor league studs to fill in. They could always go sign Kyle Lohse I guess.

They could probably lowball Lohse since nobody seems to want him. But it sucks that Carpenter is done-zo...TJS?

Michael Bourn :nelson:

Agent Scott Boras is telling the Mets he has attractive offers for Bourn, and the Mets are essentially challenging Boras to prove those proposals exist, Joel Sherman of the New York Post reports. The Mets have discussed a three-year deal for Bourn and hinted at a willingness to offer a fourth season, Sherman adds. It’s possible the Mets would match the four-year, $40MM contract Angel Pagan obtained, but only if their 11th overall draft pick becomes protected. Interestingly, the Mets would prefer to wait until they have an agreement with Bourn before challenging the existing draft pick compensation rules, Sherman writes.

Bob Nightengale of USA Today reports that the Mariners have agreed to a seven-year, $175 million contract extension with right-handed starter Felix Hernandez.

This came outta nowhere.
