Rumor roundup: White Sox eye OF market
Chicago could dip into free agency for Upton or Gordon

The holiday shopping season may be over, but Major League Baseball clubs are
still working on their offseason wish lists.
Here's a look at some of the latest Hot Stove rumblings floating around the
big leagues:
White Sox linked to top outfielders
The White Sox appear to be a possible landing spot for Justin Upton and the
club has also been linked to Alex Gordon, according to a report in the Boston
Globe.
Though the same report said Gordon would prefer to return to the Royals,
Kansas City was reportedly told this week it had "no chance" to sign the
outfielder.
Upton and Gordon each rejected a $15.8 million qualifying offer this
offseason, so the White Sox would have to forfeit a first-round pick in the
2016 Draft if they sign either player.
‧ 2016 Draft order
The White Sox have already been active this winter, dealing for third baseman
Todd Frazier and infielder Brett Lawrie to boost their offense.
Tigers waiting on Cespedes
Yoenis Cespedes is one of the few top-tier free agents left on the market,
and the Tigers appear to be waiting for the outfielder to lower his price
tag, according to USA Today.
Cespedes is said to be seeking a contract of at least six years and near the
$150 million mark.
The Tigers have already made a splash in free agency, inking starting pitcher
Jordan Zimmermann to a five-year contract worth roughly $110 million.
The Tigers are familiar with Cespedes, having acquired him in a trade with
the Red Sox last offseason. Cespedes hit .293 in 102 games with Detroit
before being dealt to the Mets at the Trade Deadline this year.
Cardinals, Rockies talking trade?
The Cardinals are said to have interest in trading for a Rockies outfielder,
and a report in the St. Louis Post-Dispatch speculates that the Cards would
be more likely to deal for Corey Dickerson or Charlie Blackmon than slugger
Carlos Gonzalez.
Any potential deal between the two clubs is thought to come down to Matt
Adams, and it's not clear if the Cardinals are ready to trade away the first
baseman.
The Rockies have been fielding calls on their outfielders all offseason and
are expected to seek starting pitching in return.
Dodgers favorites for Maeda?
In need of rotation help, the Dodgers are said to be the front-runners to
sign right-hander Kenta Maeda of Japan's Hiroshima Carp, according to the
Boston Globe.
The Dodgers met with Maeda on Thursday, according to several Japanese media
outlets. However, the club is thought to prefer a trade for Marlins ace Jose
Fernandez or Rays right-hander Jake Odorizzi. The Dodgers have also been
linked to free-agent left-hander Scott Kazmir.
Maeda's 30-day posting period concludes Jan. 8, and he has been in the U.S.
for two weeks meeting with clubs. To get Maeda, who turns 28 in April, a club
should expect to pay his Japanese team a $20 million release fee, plus a
five-year contract for roughly $80 million.
Marlins could deal lefty reliever
It appears the Marlins will trade reliever Mike Dunn this winter, as the club
has received some interest in the left-hander, according to the Boston Globe.
But it's not clear which teams have contacted Miami, and no deal appears
imminent.
Dunn has made at least 72 appearances in three straight seasons and in four
of the last five.

备注:官网的消息给各位大大参考,有问题不吝指教喔!
1. 白袜把目标锁定在顶尖的外野手,如Justin Upton,而Alex Gordon也有被提及,但这
两位都有拒绝QO,签下他们都要丢2016年的选秀顺位。虽然据传Gordon比较想回到皇家,
但据传皇家在下周不可能签下外野手。
2. 老虎对Yoenis Cespedes比较熟悉也有兴趣,不过在等Yoenis Cespedes降价,他要求价
码是150MM/6YR。
3. 红雀跟洛矶两队谈交易? 据报导红雀对洛矶的外野手有兴趣,而对Corey Dickerson或
是Charlie Blackmon兴趣高于强打者Carlos Gonzalez,红雀方面出的包裹可能如一垒手
Matt Adams,落矶方面则是在等这几位外野手的交易报价,并希望能换回一些来做为的先
发阵容。
4. 道奇对前田健太有兴趣? 道奇在前田健太的竞逐者中为领先地位,并且周四已经跟他
会面过了,要签下前田健太的球团,除了要给广岛20MM之外,还要给一纸约80MM/5YR的合
约。然而,球团比较偏好的是马林鱼的Ace Jose Fernandez或是光芒的Jake Odorizzi,甚
或是Scott Kazmir也有被讨论过。
5. 马林鱼会交易左手牛? 被提及的有Mike Dunn,不过目前这部分还不明朗,不确定其他
队有没有对马林鱼提出报价或是连络过,Mike Dunn有连三季(2013-15年)72场以上的出赛
之外,过去五年有四年有超过72场出赛(2011,13-15),2017年成为自由球员。
