First big move. Nats trade for KC closer Herrera

Sources: #Rangers groundwork on a Cole Hamels trade has advanced to the point that a deal before the All-Star Game is increasingly possible. @MLB

Hamels' trade value is dropping after another horrible outing today; Rangers should have traded him earlier.

Why would the Cubs be interested in a 32yo Adam Jones?

That's not a good enough answer.

Several reports out that say nationals are telling teams that Harper is available

Apparently very close to a Harper to the Indians deal. That said, who the hell knows if that's actually true. I think its a Nightengale thing.

Indians probably have enough to pull it off.

I have to imagine Rizzo isn't going to just give him up for nothing and I don't know enough about the Indians' prospects. Perhaps the Indians would look at him as a long-term solution to build around and be willing to take the risk by giving up major league talent.

If a team traded for Harper they'd almost have to be guaranteed to sign him to an extension. Or else why would you give up anything of value for 3 months?

If i'm the Nats, I take whatever PTBNL and bag-o-balls the Indians are offering. Once Bryce Harper experiences the delights of the Flats and the discomforting death-grip of what Deadspin referred to as "the general air of depression that lingers over Northeast Ohio at all times" Harper will surely sign a long-term extension in the off-season--back with the Nationals.

Its amazing how true Deadspin's statement is.

Cardinals trade Pham to Rays.

That is a surprise.

I wanted Happ, sounds like NY gave up garbage for him.

I hope they are just running up the price. How much do they hate Darvish?

Cubs get Brandon Kintzler from Washington.

So there's that.

I wanted him last year. Better late than never, I suppose.

Unless they could get a controllable guy like Max Scherzer I don't want them to do anything big. Wait until the offseason and spend a few hundred million.
