Lynn's contract has a insurance policy. Entire 3 year period was covered when he signed before 2015. So that means they are only on the hook for 20% of the 7.5 million he is due.

The Cardinals are the evil empire, Reb.  Don't forget that.

People in the media are now saying cause of death for Hanson was an overdose.  There was no mention of the drug, so it could be Tylenol or heroin.

I just read the AJC piece he was found not breathing. Since he's a pro athlete with multiple medical procudueres it could easily of been prescription drugs as an illegal one, not that there is a huge difference between them.

Boston is inquiring about Chapman and Verlander.

I wonder if the Yankees are really looking at moving Garnder or Ellsbury.

I'm sure they'd love to get out from under Ellsbury's contract at this point.  Maybe Gardner's too--he's 32 and no longer an elite defender, so he may not be worth what he's going to get over the next three years.

He might just be a Chris Young replacement as well.

Just spit balling, but I wonder if the Cubs could get the Yankees to pay down Ellsbury's contract to Castro's if they would have any interest in him in a 1:1 swap?  I haven't really looked at his numbers to see how I'd feel about it.

.663 OPS last season with below-average defensive metrics.  They'd have to pay it down pretty damn far.

That is something to keep in mind when deciding whether to keep or trade Soler.  Soler could not only actively help persuade other Cuban players to sign with the Cubs, his presence might well help persuade them to sign with the Cubs.  His absence.... not so much.
