Lester being sought by Cards and Pirates with Dodgers still in the mix.
Ryan Ludwick is apparently on the block. Has an option for next year, at 36 would be a youth movement for the Yanks.
Ned Coletti says Matt Kemp will not be dealt.
The Phillies are apparently asking too much for just about everyone.

give the fans enough credit when they say that the fans "won't allow" them to rebuild. 1995-2012 was a heck of a run but I think that even the most die-hard Yankee fans realize that the team needs to take a year or two to rebuild and get their contracts sorted out.
So you think the fans are willing to spend hundreds of dollars to go to Y.S. to see the Yankees lose. What does it coast like at least 25 bucks just to park your car. Unfortunatley they have to feed the beast nad to do that they need to charge big bucks. I don't see where a family of 4 is going to pay like 500 bucks ( tickets/food/parking) for a losing team.
The Yankees have been bad for two seasons in a row now, and yet the stadium is still pretty full on most nights from what I've seen. The Steinbrenners have more money than they know what to do with at this point, and even if attendance (and profit) declines for a year or two, it's not going to hurt the franchise's viability whatsoever. As soon as they start winning again, the Steinbrenners can jack up the prices to even-more ridiculous levels and people will pay. It's a no-lose situation.
Source: 60% chance #Indians trade Asdrubal Cabrera today. #Mariners reportedly the sleeper team.
#Yankees taking this down to the wire. Willingham, Denorfia types of names under consideration. Byrd, too; talks currently at impasse.

Minor League is slowly coming back, leave it alone please!
Been told #Rays are definitely moving Price
Guzman is on mets
so the Yanks just got younger
Well, if you dont know who he is, I like this trade.
I have asked #Yankees they are not close to Byrd. If anyone cares my twitter is @Joelsherman1. That was a fake account reporting it
Person in the know says Yanks haven't acquired Byrd.
Bryan Hoch @BryanHoch 2m
Yankees official says that there is no deal for Marlon Byrd.
In other news...
The Yankees have claimed Esmil Rogers off waivers from the Blue Jays.
"I think it may be the Tigers...maybe"
brilliant
in other news, The Mets may acquire Stanton....maybe.
The #Dbacks get OF Mitch Haniger and LHP Anthony Banda from #Brewers for Parra.
Indeed, it's very frustrating.
@jonmorosi
Gerardo Parra to Brewers.
Murphy on the Mets is available, but I suspect we wont move him. Might be one of those situations where we value him more than the teams looking at him. No rumors about what is being offered for him makes me think all talks are super low level.
Cincinnati isn't buying this season, and they may decide to sell -- perhaps even their ace. Reds general manager Walt Jocketty has seen the attractive packages front-line starters Jeff Samardzija and Jon Lester have garnered and may want in on the action. Latos has a 3.31 ERA in eight starts this year after missing the first two and a half months with injury.
Marlon Byrd has not been traded to the Yankees, according to Phillies GM Ruben Amaro Jr.
chris denorfia is going to the mariners
