The Rangers traded for LHP Matt Moore and gave up a couple of bums Moore’s star sure has faded. Not long ago this guy was a freakin dude. The Rangers also got more international pool money. The hell for. They already have the most out there. |

The Dodgers have traded 1B Adrian Gonzalez, LHP Scott Kazmir, RHP Brandon McCarthy and INF Charlie Culberson to the Braves in exchange for OF Matt Kemp. Holy crap. The Dodgers dumped all their dead money in one trade and they only had to give up Charlie Culberson. I like Charlie Culberson but holy crap they dumped all their dead money and only had to give up for Charlie Culberson. Kemp has 2 years left on his deal but at least he's somewhat useful unlike the 3 turds the Dodgers dumped. |

The Dodgers can still trade him and include another decent player to get rid of some if not all of that money. They made a brilliant trade. |

Huge trade by the Giants and they get to keep Panik and Beede. Posey and Longoria will be a dangerous 3-4. |

Wade Davis to COL. Jeff Passan Verified account @JeffPassan 3m3 minutes ago Source: Wade Davis' deal with the Rockies is for three years and $52M. It's the highest per-year salary ever for a relief pitcher. Jeff Passan Verified account @JeffPassan 2m2 minutes ago Among Wade Davis, Jake McGee and Bryan Shaw, the Rockies now have guaranteed $106M to relief pitchers this winter. Add in Mike Dunn and Adam Ottavino, and they may have the most expensive bullpen in baseball history -- upward of $50M this season. |
