The question at hand is whether or not this is just people within the industry mulling over scenarios, or whether it’s these two clubs actually exchanging information. But in either case, Ken Rosenthal had this to add:
Sources: #Rockies spoke to #Rays about OF for SP swap. TB already has Kiermaier-Souza-Jennings-Guyer. More likely to seek prospects for SP.

The important part is that the first portion is from the sources, they spoke about an OF for SP swap, but the second is merely Ken going through the motions or adding his own input.
