Whenever Morosi/Rosenthal come in with a tweet like this, it's usually just a matter of time.

I'm not sure Ramsey is the equivalent of the #30 pick in next year's draft. He projects as a fourth OF. In any event, it's not clearly better than the pick.
Corsi said:Jon Morosi @jonmorosi 1m
Sources: Marlins and Red Sox are discussing a possible John Lackey trade. @FOXSports1
Only thing that's been mentioned, as far as I can tell, is that the Royals are moving on. It's weird, he's still a useful player.SemperFidelisSox said:I haven't read any rumors on Jonny Gomes this week. He should not still be on this roster taking at bats away from Mookie in August and September.

I was kinda hoping Lackey would stay. He's so freaking cheap next year.
There's very little I like about the Marlins besides their OF.

Yelich is the guy they want.
Going to take a fair bit more than Lackey to get him.amfox1 said:

Why would the Marlins sell their closer if they are trading for a starter to make a post-season run?
Yelich is an OF. Cishek is their closerjasail said:

If you're looking at it as a Lackey Yelich swap, yeah....E5 Yaz said:
Go sit in the corner with the ones who thought the Sox were getting Polanco or Tavares

Is it worth considering that the Indians weren't going to issue Masterson the QO (~$15M) due to his struggles this year and therefore were not going to receive a pick?
Red(s)HawksFan said:
They're selling Cishek? According to whom?
All about saving money. Marlins don't think it's worth paying him over $4 million next season.glennhoffmania said:
For what it's worth, there were rumors last week that they'd consider dealing Cishek. It made no sense at the time and still doesn't.
Mugsy's Walk-Off Bunt said:I for one am very excited that we're going to get Stanton for John Lackey. I'd even throw in Stephen Drew if that helps get it done.

http://www.cbssports.com/mlb/writer/jon-heyman/24643395/red-hot-marlins-seeking-a-starting-pitcher-lester-lackey-unlikelyThe Marlins, baseball's hottest team, are seeking a starter but don't at the moment seem focused on either of Boston's two big starters, Jon Lester or John Lackey.
Miami would prefer a young starter with contollable years, such as Arizona's Wade Miley or Oakland's Tommy Milone. The Diamondbacks have been reluctant to trade Miley, though

Hilarious. What plan is that, John? The one that drove the team straight into the ALE cellar? Give me a break.
