FOXSports.com?s Ken Rosenthal says that while the four-team Justin Upton talks are going nowhere fast, they?re not yet dead, not with Rangers GM Jon Daniels working hard to keep them alive.
Rosenthal reports that the Mariners have replaced the Rays as the fourth team involved in talks. They would likely get Rangers left-hander Derek Holland in return for whatever talent they surrendered.
The Rangers? goal in the proceeding is to get Justin Upton from Arizona, and to accomplish that, it seems they?re going to have to facilitate a deal that would send Asdrubal Cabrera from the Indians to the Diamondbacks.
What?s odd about that whole aspect is that the Diamondbacks and Indians wouldn?t seem to need the Rangers at all, given that the Diamondbacks have young pitching to trade. However, it sounds as though the Indians are more interested in Tyler Skaggs than fellow top prospect Trevor Bauer, while the Diamondbacks prefer to deal Bauer.
So, perhaps it all boils down like this:
Rangers get Upton from Diamondbacks
Diamondbacks get Cabrera from Indians, prospect from Rangers
Mariners get Holland from Rangers
Indians get prospect(s) from Mariners
For the Mariners? side, it?s hard to imagine they?d trade top prospect Taijuan Walker for Holland. However, Danny Hultzen could be in play. Jesus Montero might be another possibility.
Anyway, the whole mess seems unlikely to come together. However, it?s become pretty clear that the Rangers? preference is to end the winter with Upton and Zack Greinke and that Josh Hamilton has become the fallback option.
