ESPN.com's Jayson Stark responds to some of Scott Boras' recent comments before providing some rumors in his latest Rumblings and Grumblings column:
The Rays, Rangers and Jays appear to be the three likeliest landing spots for Milton Bradley. The Cubs say they don't want to eat much of the $21MM remaining on Bradley's contract, so a bad contract swap still seems possible.
Stark hears that the Marlins were in serious trade talks with the Giants and Rangers about Dan Uggla.
There's no indication that the Yankees are in on Jason Bay or Matt Holliday at this point. The Yanks figure to negotiate firmly with Johnny Damon and Hideki Matsui.
The Braves would like to trade for a cleanup-hitter and are expected to try to extend Javier Vazquez if they can move Derek Lowe and his contract.
The Phillies don't appear to have a preference at third base, though they're said to be considering Placido Polanco, Mark DeRosa and Adrian Beltre....

Cubs could move Bradley in three-team deal
Sporting News staff reports
There has been talk of a three-way trade involving the Cubs, Mets and Rangers, the Chicago Tribune reports.

The Mets...
Milton Bradley…Will the Talk Ever Stop?
This from the Chicago Tribune. An article laments that big salaries have strapped the Chicago Cubs. Paul Sullivan writes about Lou Piniella’s desire to add a left-handed bat to their lineup. That decision led to last winter’s disastrous signing of switch-hitter Milton Bradley, whose $30 million contract is now an albatross, forcing the Cubs either to [...]
On another Milton Bradley and the Rangers rumor
Earlier today, Phil Rogers of the Chicago Tribune posted an item on the Rangers, Cubs and Mets discussing a potential deal that would net the Rangers Milton Bradley.
It's a rumor both Rogers and I heard last night. The Rangers officials I spoke to said "not happening" in response to my question. The Cubs officials Rogers spoke to said that, yeah, there has been a discussion...
We do Have Options
I’m not going to get into great detail about some of the options the team has, but I’ll name a few. So far this young off-season we’ve heard some trade and free-agency rumors. Some make sense, some are laughable.
Dan Uggla- For about a week we’ve been hearing the O’s are actively trying to work a [...]
Latest Milton Bradley Scenario
The latest Milton Bradley trade scenario comes courtesy of Phil Rogers of the Chicago Tribune, who considers Bradley going to the Rangers, Kevin Millwood to the Mets, and Luis Castillo to the Cubs.

Milton Bradley: What's His Trade Market?

Cubs - once again putting the 'meh' in 're-meh-dial'
It appears Hendry has completed GMDirective.2 - John Grabow will not enjoy the passionate rush of unbridled free agency, for he is a Cub through 2011.
GMDirective.1 is of course the Supermassive Black Hole, the MuppetMaster himself, Milton Bradley. But whither Grabow? AJ gave him the ol' tepid meh the other day. A well-deserved meh-dley of lukewarm, certainly...
Large contracts limiting Cubs strategy
Players such at Alfonso Soriano and Milton Bradley create money problems for club

Marlins Notes: Meyer, Uggla, Guerrero
MLB.com's Joe Frisaro answers some burning questions from fans about the team from Miami. Among his responses:
Look for Dan Meyer to remain with the team, but not to close games.
Defying conventional wisdom, Frisaro is not convinced both Jorge Cantu and Dan Uggla will be traded.
He believes the Marlins are "a year or so away from making this kind of big...
Cubs Lineup: Is it broke? Why fix it?
Again, not feeling wordy, so let me quickly brighten up your Saturday with an idea for a line-up for 2010. I'll let you fill in the hatred/love in the comment section.

2) Ryan Theriot, SS
3) Derrek Lee, 1B
4) Aramis Ramirez, 3B
5) Kosuke Fukudome, CF (yes, he should play center)
6) Alfonso Soriano, LF
7) Geovany...
