It’s official: Baseball’s rumor mill is back in business.
We’ve seen a slew of rumors and speculation make the rounds over the past week, some of it driven by untimely injuries and some by a lack of production. Regardless of the reason, teams are realizing that they may not have the answers in-house and have begun scouring the market for reinforcements.
The players involved in this week’s chatter run the gamut from those still in their prime to top prospects and veterans some of us may have forgotten were still playing.
Keep in mind that these proposed deals are only ideas and pure speculation. Unless otherwise noted, there’s no indication any of them have actually been discussed.
