Clay Holmes signs with the Mets and they're planning to make him a starter. 3 years, $38 million.

Joel Sherman is reporting it too but hopefully just recycling Heyman.

Is there any indication that Hoyer is interested in trading Suzuki other than Heyman? I would be extremely surprised if they traded Suzuki, not only because he is the guy with the most offensive upside on the team, but because of the Japanese connection that he provides. Plus, doen't he have a no trade contract?

Full NTC, yes. Hopefully Heyman is off-base with that one.

I’m just not overly impressed by Jansen…especially now that he has gotten somewhat “expensive”.

I would prefer bringing Bethancourt back rather than give Jansen 8.5M…that’s money best spent elsewhere (provided they’re going to spend it, of course)!

To me Jansen was the one realistic option to improve the offense from the C position (and maybe period, as the Cubs seem determined to lower the payroll). No major health issues and the proven ability to hit a lot of home runs and provide solid defense behind the plate. The abysmal second half is a concern but that's why he was cheap.

The Canadian dollar and Canadian taxes might be a factor for Soto.  I know both of those are big deals and problems for hockey teams there.

One of the reasons' the Expos' sited for moving. Along with no local money for a stadium.
