The only reason I didn't include A-Rod and Ellsbury is because I don't think anyone will take on their contracts.

What do you guys think?

I don't think the Royals will get much from Ventura except a bad attitude out of the clubhouse.

He's also not that particularly cheap in the coming years, and he doesn't have the numbers to defend that contract. I doubt they get much other than a sigh of relief and a low ceiling prospect in return, or he's a throw-in on a bigger deal.

What makes you think someone wants CC's contract?

i think the Yankees would not want Ventura. I don't think the Cubs would trade Schwarber especially for a reliever. I highly doubt the Angels trade Shoemaker for Headley. And I really think Texeira will be out for the year and that last trade is not going to happen. This is not good at all.

Most of these smell like old socks.
