A cornucopia of trade rumors

Just want to keep our baseball readers up to date. As always, rotoworld.com is the best source outside of The Swamp's own offseason rumors thread. Here are a few of their latest nuggets. Remember these are just rumors at this point:

- Greg Maddux, or rather, Scott Boras wants a two-year deal. The Padres are only willing to offer one. Seems silly on the part of the Padres. When was the last time Maddux was seriously injured? Oh yeah. Never.

- The Reds are offering Mark Loretta a two-year deal. Ryan Freel must have slept with the owner's son there or something.

- Julio Lugo to Boston is looking very likely. Downgrade him considerably for your roto drafts. Boston won't let him run close to as much.

- Willy Taveras and an arm to the Rockies for Jason Jennings. And both their roto values would move up with this deal.

- Oakland may sign both Mike Piazza and Cliff Floyd. Hey, look what they were able to get out of Frank Thomas.

- The Orioles will probably overpay for Luis Gonzalez. Shocker.

- Both Gil Meche and Ted Lilly will likely make over $10 million a year for three to four years. And the Gary Matthews deal may not end up being the biggest bust of the offseason.

- Mariners, Mets and Rangers are the two top players for Barry Zito's services.

- Brian Sabean is losing his mind. $15 million over three years for Bengi Molina? Really?

- The White Sox and Giants are the two most aggressive teams as far as outfielders go. Barry Bonds, Vernon Wells, Pat Burrell, etc. are all options.
