MLB Trade Ideas Based on Week 9 News, Rumors and Speculation

Is James Shields a member of the Chicago White Sox yet?

Talk of the veteran hurler joining the American League Central leaders might be the juiciest rumor out there, but it's far from the only one. A major injury in Kansas City has created some buzz, while a rebuilding club may have learned from past mistakes and be ready to part with an All-Star infielder.

We may only be two months into baseball's regular season, but general managers have clearly been trying to earn their paychecks, working the phones to find upgrades, add depth and, in some cases, gauge interest in potential trade chips.

Keep in mind that these proposed deals are only ideas and pure speculation. Unless otherwise noted, there's no indication any of them have actually been discussed.
