It was reported over the weekend that the Rangers attempted to acquire Andrelton Simmons from the Braves in order to flip him to the Diamondbacks as part of a package for Justin Upton.
Read that. It's like, if that's what it would take, the Braves should have just done it themselves
Hell, if the Dbacks want a SS so badly, they can have ERICK AYBAR. He's very gif-worthy and is very dumb(provides laughter and entertainment) That has to count for something, right?
Why wouldnt they do a deal around Elvis? That gives them a reason to just go with Profar now...you know they want him to play now.

Only room for one of them on the field, unless they are dead set on making one of them change positions.

He got hurt, not paid. Someone is going to get him for 75 cents on the dollar and it's going to be an absolute steal. Shame the Mets are in such disfortune otherwise I'd be pedaling almost anything for him.

Woah, it looks like Mark Buehrle AND Josh Johnson are going to Toronto for Yunel and Hechavarria. There are more going in the deal, as it looks like Reyes could be going to Toronto as well.

So far, from what I've gathered, the potential deal is this
Toronto Getting:
Josh Johnson
Mark Buehrle
Jose Reyes
Emilio Bonifacio
John Buck
Marlins Getting:
Yunel Escobar
Adeiny Hechavarria
Justin Nicolino
Henderson Alvarez
Jake Marisnick
Jeff Mathis
Anthony DeSclafani
feel so bad for Marlins fans. Get the new park, ownership baits the fans into thinking that they care about contending to sell tix, and then go do their usual firesale

#Marlins opened season with a payroll of roughly $100MM. After this trade, non-arb 2013 obligations will be ~ $16MM. Historic salary dump.
LOL. Good god

Simmons was "part of a package for Justin Upton" who knows what the rest would of been
