Analyzing key matchups in Yankees-Phillies World Series - Jon Heyman - SI.com

—

THE RECENT GAMES The Yankees and Phillies are both 7-2 so far this October. As opposed to blowing out their opponents, the Yankees have relied on more oppositional screw-ups (the Twins' baserunning and Angels' fielding left quite a bit to be desired), but charitably, perhaps the Yankees forced ...

Heyman On Chapman, Mets, Hudson
MLB Rumors - MLBTradeRumors.com — ... The latest hot stove notes from SI's Jon Heyman... Despite interest from several other clubs, Heyman sees the Aroldis Chapman bidding as ultimately a Yankees-Red Sox battle. Heyman says the Mets "don't seem inclined" to pursue free agent starter John Lackey.  Heyman believes Lackey will aim for $100MM+, which is higher than most estimates we've seen. The Mets have no interest in Milton Bradley, despite a September report.  Heyman believes a left fielder will be the team's big-ticket ...

Buzz: Mets prefer Holliday, no interest in Bradley
MetsBlog.com — According to Jon Heyman of SI.com, Matt Holliday is at the top of Omar Minaya’s off-season wish list, “though Jason Bay will certainly suffice.” “The Mets have no interest in taking on Milton Bradley’s problems,” Heyman writes, while adding Carl Crawford could be available in trade as well. In a video for FoxSports.com during September, Ken Rosenthal mentioned the Mets among several teams who called the Cubs about ...

Obsessive Bradley Trade Watch: Not the Mets
Bleacher Nation | Chicago Cubs News, Rumors, and Commentary — ... That was quite a relief, because up to that point, all we’d really heard about were the teams that were not interested in Bradley. And the worst part was the fact that all those teams were the ones that made the most sense. So, yeah, it’s time to start hearing about some of those “shockingly” interested teams, right? Right? Eh. The Mets have no interest in taking on Milton Bradley’s problems. Jon Heyman - SI.com. The Mets did not make a ton of sense, given the whole New-York-media thing, ...

Let the Jason Bay sweepstakes begin
Digital Sports Daily — ... would like the Seattle Mariners to go after Bay. “Jason Bay comes to mind, but if the Red Sox really want him back, they have more financial leeway than the Mariners. That being said, I would like to see the Mariners make a full-court press on the slugger,”  Street writes. Bay’s agent Joe Urbon of CAA sports recently defended Bay’s defensive skills, which have come under scrutiny by the likes of ESPN’s Buster Olney and others. The New York Mets are reportedly also interested in Bay.

Alberto vs. Orlando
Center Field Gate — ... as the solution to the team’s problems in the middle infield. Jon Heyman over at SI says that Hudson is looking for other opportunities — as Trolley manager Joe Torre ”employed Ronnie Belliard over him” through much of September and into the playoffs. In fact, it was downright weird watching Belliard shine in the L.A. post-season, particularly considering his embarrassing swing-from-the-heels style of play for the Nats through nearly 120 games. Can it be? Would L.A. really pick Belliard as their second sacker over Hudson? ...
