The Mets appear to be closing in on a deal with the Braves for two utility pieces, according to a report from Jim Bowden of ESPN.com (Twitter link). Both Juan Uribe and Kelly Johnson appear to be ticketed for Queens if the deal goes through.
New York will send “young arms” to Atlanta to add the two veterans, according to Joel Sherman of the New York Post (links to Twitter). One of the players involved in the deal is John Gant, a 22-year-old righty who is pitching at the Double-A level. The other is Rob Whalen, 21, who is a right-hander working at High-A.

Quote:The Royals nearly acquired Reds ace Johnny Cueto earlier tonight, report Ken Rosenthal and Jon Morosi of FOX Sports (via Twitter). One of the players headed to Cincinnati did not check out medically per Rosenthal (via Twitter). Cueto pitched tonight, going eight scoreless innings at hitter friendly Coors Field. Ostensibly, there is nothing stopping the two clubs from consummating a new deal with slightly different parameters.

Sounds like Cueto to the Royals is back on and a done deal.
This is not some silly theory that's unsupported and deserves being mocked by photos of Xena.

Things could always be worse, like how the Indians just got swept by the Sox in 4 games, showed zero life and never held a lead at any time. Sounds like there could be clubhouse issues bubbling up in Cleveland. I know it's highly unrealistic, but I would love to have Kipnis if he wants out of there.

Yeah just came here to post that. This has to be a larger deal. Where will he play with Reyes over there?

You wonder if Reyes will get flipped some point as well.
