I doubt Ross would be available. He's still making peanuts and
is under control for a long time - that's not an asset a tear
down team trades away, normally.

Well, if they follow the great plan made famous by the Cubs,
they might as well trade him now. He's a 27 year old with top
of the rotation stuff and 3 1/2 years left until free agency.
That's what Jeff Samardzija was two years ago at this time.

It's too bad Seth Smith doesn't make more, because I'd love to
snag him for a song.

Cashner to the DL with shoulder soreness.
Apparently, the Padres are interested in bringing back Towers to
be their GM. I guess they like the job he did in Arizona.

Aaron Nola doing his best Mark Appel imitation in his debut. 3
innings 5 runs, 4 ER.

Pirates outright Jose Tabata to AAA. He can become a free
agent, but he'd lose the $10 million left on his contract
through 2016. That's unlikely.

Well, he does bring their average age down quite a bit...

Adrian Beltre just picked up his 2,500th hit. He'll be a real
interesting Hall of Fame case...he's going to be close to a slam
dunk for stats guys, but he's not going to "feel like" a Hall of
Famer to more traditional voters.
Also, this Dallas Morning News article speculates that the
Rangers could consider trading anyone, including Darvish:

I can't even wrap my head around what Darvish would cost in a
trade.
