Yankees, Rays, Pirates Interested In Adrian Morejon

Morejon ranks third among relievers in innings pitched over the last three seasons, with a 2.62 ERA and 2.93 SIERA. In his free agent walk year, he has arguably […]

Report: Red Sox Made Offer For Elly De La Cruz
According to Sean McAdam of MassLive, the Red Sox made an offer to the Reds for shortstop Elly De La Cruz.

The Athletic’s Jen McCaffrey […]

The Giants have yet to move any of their assets, but they’re one of the clearest sellers heading into Monday’s trade deadline.

Arraez […]
