And a huge sigh of relief from most of this board.

If Hammel and Hendricks are your 4/5 starters the rotation is fine.

The Royals rotation of Cueto, Ventura, Edison Volequez, Chris Young
The Giants rotation of Bumgarner, Peavy, Hudson, Vogelsong

Nothing but aces...

5/$110 for Zimmermann

Sources: Zobrist market likely to become more defined in next few days. Willingness to guarantee fourth year likely will be deciding factor.

Zobrist #Mets’ No. 1 target, sources say. #Nationals also in, along with #Braves, #SFGiants, others. #Royals not expected to offer same $$$.

Sources: The #DBacks have made Johnny Cueto an offer. http://www.baseballessential.com/news/2015/11/29/sources-diamondbacks-have-made-johnny-cueto-an-offer/

-Dodgers are discussing a Pederson for Miller trade

-Two reporters put Heyward in the unlikely category for the Cubs

-Cueto turned down 6/$120 from the DBacks.

Cueto supposedly turns down 6/120 from Arizona. I'm thinking more and more if you could get Shark on a four year deal, you have to do it.

Clubs in the Johnny Cueto market believe he's looking for a $140-160M payout. That's Cole Hamels-Jon Lester territory.

In this free agent market, I wonder if he's selling himself a little short even at that kind of money.

Red Sox have agreed to a multi-year deal with OF Chris Young.  Seems like they're probably going to have to move one of their outfielders.

Zack Greinke's market is quietly heating up, says a source. #Dodgers, #SFGiants both looking for some clarity.

Jerry Crasnick ‏@jcrasnick  7m7 minutes ago
It's believed Greinke is looking for a $30M annual payout. He's 32, so length of the deal will be an issue.
