    Nobody seems to be taking their interest seriously but I can really see the Cardinals signing Yu Darvish. It reunites him with pitching coach Mike Maddux and I think he'll come cheaper then Arrieta. I think Arrieta goes to Texas and the Cubs sign Alex Cobb.

    I think if the Brewers are gonna spend money they might bring Lorenzo Cain back into the fold, having him in CF would help Braun and Santana in the corners.
    “I don’t care,” Votto said of passing his friend and former teammate. “He’s in the past. Bye-bye, Jay.”

    My prediction is that some will be way too much, some will be to little and none will come from the Reds.

    I see Frazier back with the Yankees. He is the perfect vet for their young clubhouse and they loved him this year.
