Eric Chavez leaves #Yankees and signs one year, $3 million deal with #Dbacks
Not a bad deal. Chavez would've been a decent bench guy. |

| The Dodgers spoke with Greinke's representatives today, though it's not clear where talks stand, tweets Ken Rosenthal of FOX Sports. According to Rosenthal, the Dodgers hope to sign two starting pitchers, perhaps even aiming as high as Greinke and Anibal Sanchez.

If they sign Greinke and Sanchez then the rest of the MLB just has to go on a strike. The Dodgers are ruining the MLB. I hope they miss the playoffs next year. |

Angels are going to have to hope he accepts their offer even if it's lower than Rangers/Dodgers |

Location: Rancho Santa Margarita, Ca | Doyers better be careful. Anything they give Greinke works against them in Kershaw's upcoming extension negotiations. If they make Greinke the richest pitcher ever, then what do they have to give Kershaw? I guess they hope Kershaw is as cool as Weaver. |

| Phillies, Rangers Making Progress On Michael Young
By Steve Adams [December 6 at 12:55am CST]
The Phillies' reported interest in Michael Young has picked up some steam, with Evan Grant of the Dallas Morning News reporting that the two sides are in "advanced talks."
In the proposed scenario, the Rangers would eat more than half of Young's $16MM salary to facilitate the trade, which would likely send a young Major League reliever and a low-level prospect back to the Rangers in exchange for the 36-year-old Young.
Young's name has dominated trade rumors in previous offseasons, but a move does seem more feasible now with just one year remaining on his contract and a potentially diminishing role in the Rangers' offense. Young received 651 plate appearances last season (his lowest total in a full season since 2002), batting .272/.312/.370 in the process. He saw time at all four infield positions, though Philadelphia would have interest in him as a third baseman.
Young, of course, has 10-and-5 rights after spending his entire 13-year career with the Rangers. As such, he'd have the ability to veto any trade the Rangers could attempt.

| Mariners Making Serious Run At Josh Hamilton
By Steve Adams [December 6 at 2:21am CST]
Yesterday we learned that Josh Hamilton will give the Rangers the opportunity to match any offer another club makes before he signs. Talks were said to progress between Hamilton and the Rangers, but Texas is also in on Zack Greinke. As Hamilton works to determine where he'll play next year, we'll keep track of the latest rumors here...
The Mariners are making a big push for Hamilton, writes Geoff Baker of the Seattle Times, and talks are more serious between the two sides than has been let on. The holdup, not surprisingly, is the Rangers' ongoing pursuit of Greinke. If Greinke does land in Texas, Baker writes that the Mariners could make a deal for Hamilton happen "very quickly."
