I just have a hard time seeing any responsible team going there given his recent injury history. The Mets have unlimited money, if they’re willing to let him walk that’s a major red flag but I’m sure someone will give him a huge deal

Matt Holliday also played pretty well after leaving Colorado.

Dodgers, Rangers, Blue Jays, ..........among others will go there.

There's still whispers with Atlanta which is a perfect scenario for both but I can't see Anthopoulos going there if he didn't go that extra mile for Freeman.

The bigger story will be a top FA the Dodgers AREN'T going after.

Their payroll will be more than entire divisions.

Royals are hiring Matt Quatraro as their new manager.

He's been a pretty popular candidate the past couple years, so hopefully he can find success.

Whispers from where? Anthopoulos traded all of our talent for like 150 pitchers and has been dealing those pitchers ever since, building the core we have now.

A late career possible gas left ie Morton signing, yeah I can see it, but I've seen nothing that even suggests we're looking to add a big name arm. Anthopoulos has spent on our pen, not our rotation.
