Here is a round-up of relevant hot stove rumors from Dallas over the last few hours:
In anticipation that they will eventually sign C.J. Wilson, teams are already contacting the Angels to see if they are looking to trade Ervin Santana.
The Phillies and A’s have talked about a deal involving Gio Gonzalez and Dom Brown.
The Braves are not interested in acquiring Marlins SS Hanley Ramirez, despite still searching for a shortstop.
The A’s have talked to the Red Sox about sending Andrew Bailey to Boston for Josh Reddick and other prospects.
The Angels are not in the running for Albert Pujols. The Marlins made a 10-year deal yesterday, which is their final offer. Pujols will meet today with the Cardinals.
In 33 starts for the Angels last year, Santana, 28, was 11-12 with a 3.38 ERA, during which he struck out 178 batters and walked 72 in 228 innings pitched. He has pitched at least 200 innings with an ERA below 4.00 in each of his last two seasons.

Man sticks wad of gum on Albert Pujols statue
Bra-freaking-vo. That, folks, is some serious comeuppance. The photo, courtesy of @Matt Sebek (by way of The Sports Hernia Blog). Sebek is understandably irate over Pujols signing with Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim and chose to express his frustrations by a little bit of subtle statue-defacing. I wholeheartedly applause his actions. He tweets: How about [...]
Will the 2012 Angels Rotation Be Better Than the 2011 Phillies?
The Winter Meetings are over, and the Los Angeles Angels are all smiles. They signed that Pujols guy. I’m told he is pretty good, but I’m not here to talk about Pujols right now. I’m here to talk about the new Big Three in baseball, Jered Weaver, Dan Haren, and CJ Wilson.
Wilson settled on the Angels moments after Pujols; debating years/money over team/location...
Angels Bet The Future On Albert Pujols
For the second year in a row, the “Mystery Team” has proven that they’re not a myth. This year, though, I’m having a harder time explaining the logic behind the move. Last year, Cliff Lee wanted to go back to Philadelphia, the Phillies were in win-now mode after compiling a roster that was just one piece away, and the two were able to work out a deal for an amount similar...

DALLAS (AP) -- A person familiar with the deal tells The Associated Press that the Los Angeles Angels have made another big splash, agreeing to a deal with free agent pitcher C.J. Wilson.

The Los Angeles Angels sign 1B Albert Pujols
The Angels have signed 31-year old righty swinging 1B Albert Pujols to a 10-year, $254 million dollar deal.

Angels Land Pujols with 10-Year, $250M Pact
The Los Angeles Angels swooped in to win the Albert Pujols sweepstakes with a quarter-billion dollar offer the superstar slugger just could not refuse.
