Let’s see what ye olde MLB Trade Rumors has for us today:

  • The biggest thing from today is probably Rafael Montero’s three-year, sizable-money deal. I look forward to that imploding, too, though it’ll be a bit sad because I like watching Montero pitch — he doesn’t really have great pitches but executes a very clear gameplan about throwing them where they make sense. An amusing question: who exactly inked this deal? James Click was sent packing, as was at least one other Front Office operative. Did Jim Crane just structure the deal and authorize it himself?
