Playing Fact or Fiction with All of MLB's Hottest Week 16 Buzz, Rumors

Odds are that, at one point or another, you've heard the Latin aphorism "carpe diem," which translates to "seize the day." Seizing the day is a theme that runs through much of this week's edition of fact or fiction.

With only five days left before MLB's non-waiver trade deadline arrives, teams are being forced to decide between holding on to their top prospects in the hopes of future success or parlaying those unproven youngsters into an established veteran or two that can help them win now.

Will a franchise that historically holds onto its top young talent move some in order to make a run at a World Series crown? Should the defending World Series champs trade away a key piece of last year's championship club? Is the Jonathan Lucroy saga in Milwaukee finally going to end?

We'll hit on all that and more after the jump.
