Jose Fernandez, Matt Harvey Blockbusters Need to Wait Until Next Winter

Jordan Zimmermann busted through the 2015 free-agent logjam on Sunday when he reportedly inked a five-year pact with the Detroit Tigers, according to CBSSports.com (h/t Jason Beck of MLB.com). Now, the offseason's deep pool of pitchers can (and will) flow in his wake.

But there are two ostensibly available arms who should tread water. Or, more accurately, their teams should.

We're talking about the New York Mets' Matt Harvey and the Miami Marlins' Jose Fernandez. Neither is due to rock the open market until 2019, but both have been the subject of trade rumors that understandably put the baseball world on high alert.
