MLB Trade Rumors

Are there any MLB players left to trade?

With winter meetings closing shop on Thursday, teams decided to throw a massive going-away party in San Diego. A frenzy of deals hit the fan before concluding the convention, spawning many of the offseason's hottest rumors.

A lot of talented MLB trade targets are still available after the winter meetings in San Diego came to a close Thursday afternoon.

With the 2014 winter meetings having come to an end, the New York Mets did not control the majority of the baseball headlines this week. The Mets, though, did not go into the winter meetings with a big agenda of tasks to complete. There were only a few particular areas the Mets really needed to look into, and they accomplished some, but not all, of their goals this week.

After starting out slow on Monday and then building to a magnificent crescendo by mid-day Thursday, Major League Baseball's winter meetings are over.

Now that the flurry—nay, absolute avalanche—of signings and trades in San Diego are complete, here's the question: Are you all caught up on the transaction action?

As Day 2 of the 2014 Major League Baseball winter meetings winds down in San Diego, rumors are swirling like so many late-autumn leaves.

The fate of Jon Lester, arguably the biggest prize in a rich free-agent pitching market, remains in the air as of this writing. And there's plenty of other innuendo and scuttlebutt (gotta love those "well-placed sources" and "people familiar with the team's thinking") to go around.

The start of the MLB season is still months away, but rumors surrounding some of the biggest stars are already getting chaotic. No player is safe during the winter meetings, including some of the most notable names for franchises.

Can you feel that? The buzz in the air? Can you hear the whispers and negotiations and deals going down?

That's just the winter meetings in baseball starting to really heat up, as free-agent signings and trades are going down left and right. And that means for every completed deal, there are five times the number of rumors making the rounds. 

Below, you'll find a few of the juiciest ones out there.

The pitching market has mostly been at a standstill this offseason with Jon Lester being the presumed catalyst to increased talks on other arms, but the latest MLB trade rumors suggest that several premier arms could be on the move in the near future.

As the MLB winter meetings kick off in San Diego this week, the Los Angeles Dodgers seem primed to pull the trigger on a trade.

With the MLB winter meetings starting recently, the number of rumors around the game has skyrocketed. It is all quite consuming, actually.
