Yoenis Cespedes Rumors: Friday
2012-01-07 00:58:00 Here's the latest on Cuban outfielder Yoenis Cespedes... A source says Cespedes' eventual contract will be in the range of four years and $32MM, writes MLB.com's Joe Frisaro. "Several teams have backed away" from Cespedes' original goal of an eight-year, $60MM contract. Frisaro says the Marlins are among the teams still very interested in the Cuban prospect. Also from Frisaro, Cespedes is tentatively expected to establish residency in the Dominican Republic on January 15, and then the outfielder will petition Major League Baseball for free agent status. The Tigers have been relatively quiet this offseason, "intensifying speculation" that the team is waiting on Cespedes to become available, reports James Schmehl of MLive.com. With Delmon Young, Austin Jackson and Brennan Boesch pencilled in as Detroit's starting outfield, the Tigers could have to make another move should they sign Cespedes, or just give him limited playing time to ease his transition to the Major Lea...

Prince Fielder Rumors: Friday
2012-01-06 17:35:00 Nationals GM Mike Rizzo said yesterday that first base is ?settled? in Washington, but acknowledged that Prince Fielder will make a major impact on his next team. The Nationals continue to be linked to Fielder, though they say they're content with Adam LaRoche at first base. Here's the latest on Fielder, with the most recent rumors up top: The Rangers have ?one eye? on Fielder, but locking up Yu Darvish remains their number one goal, tweets Jon Heyman of CBSSports.com. If they sign Darvish, as expected, the chances of a deal with Fielder will drop. In some corners of the Nationals organization, there?s ?great skepticism? about a very long-term deal for Fielder, tweets ESPN.com?s Buster Olney. Owner Ted Lerner figures to have the final say in the matter.

Hollywood Rumor Mill: Jurassic Park 4 In the Works?
2011-06-18 01:28:00 There?s never a shortage of rumors floating around in Hollywood, and some of them just seem to never want to die. One of those rumors is that Jurassic Park 4 is in the works and we will soon be seeing another rise of the dinosaurs on the big screen, and now it?s fresh on everyone?s minds and back in the rumor mill. Seems that Stephen Spielberg is in talks to pen a fourth installment to his Jurassic Park franchise, and according to The Hollywood Reporter has approached screenwriter Mark Protosevic to be the brains behind this go around. Rumors began of a JP4 back in 2007, and the reported plot for that failed flick was something along the lines of dinosaurs engineered by the government that stomp around with weapons on their back. I can?t deny that a movie like that wouldn?t be freakin AWESOME, but does it really need to have the Jurassic Park name attached to it? Few things irk me more than movies for the sake of money. I get that big movies historically make big money, and Hollywoo...

Cubs Rumors: Nationals, Yankees interested in Silva
2011-03-13 08:36:00 According to ESPN's Bruce Levine, there were scouts on hand to see Silva pitch Sunday against the Reds. The Nationals seem most interested with 3 scouts in attendance. The Yankees are also said to be looking for pitching and had at least one scout on hand to see Silva's best performance of the spring, in which he gave up just 2 runs on 3 hits in 4 innings before tiring and giving up 2 more runs in the 5th. It's also important to note that Larry Rothschild is the Yankees pitching coach and he did a pretty good job resurrecting Silva last season -- at least in the first half.Before the game I was ambivalent as to Silva's performance.

2010-12-29 23:41:00 -By Warner Todd Huston Word has run like wildfire through the Internet that former GOP Senate candidate for Delaware, Christine O'Donnell, is under investigation for misuse of campaign funds. O'Donnell flatly refutes the claims and says that these rumors were started by operatives of the establishment of both parties in Delaware, rumors meant to prevent her from ever running for office again. In an email to supporters, O'Donnell and her staffers said that claims she is under investigation are nothing but "unfounded rumors" and she has not been contacted by officials about an investigation. She also vowed to fully cooperate if authorities do contact her. O'Donnell's campaign manager, Matt Moran, claims that the rumors were started by a disgruntled former...

Ohio State Athletic Director Gene Smith Discredits Jim Tressel Rumors
2010-12-26 03:16:00 Tis the season for rumors and innuendo! Hark the herald bloggers sing of what could be, might be but probably isn't. Earlier today, according to Chicago Now's Daily Sports Tab two sources that are very close to recruiting at prominent universities confirmed that Jim Tressel will no longer be the head football coach at Ohio State University after the Sugar Bowl against Arkansas. Despite Tressel's phenomenal record in Columbus (well, his record vs. everyone not in the SEC anyway) this story was believable considering that 1.)

Winter Meetings: Recent Rumors

Davis, 24, has the makings of a slugger, but has struggled to realize his potential. He has 39 homers in 872 big league plate apperances, which projects to 25 or 30 over the course of a full season. Davis has a .248/.300/.459 line in parts of three major league seasons and he strikes out in 32% of his plate appearances. The Rangers claimed O'Day off of waivers from the Mets in 2009 and saw...

Here's the latest on the American League champions (click here for the latest on the NL pennant winners): Rangers assistant GM Thad Levine and pitcher Eddie Guardado tell MLB.com's T.R.

NBA Rumors: Carmelo Anthony Should Not Push for Being Traded
2010-09-27 02:40:00 Carmelo Anthony is actually making a wrong choice in being traded by the Denver Nuggets. To me, it's just not the right decision at all. Anthony wants to be moved and was mostly pushing towards to going to the New York Knicks or the Chicago Bulls. But now there is a perfect chance at going to the New Jersey Nets, as there is a four-team trade set. But now it has hit a sudden halt. "He's having second thoughts on Jersey," one league source said. "He's pushed [Denver] to explore other options." The Nets ultimately would be worse than staying with the Nuggets. Anthony would probably regret the decision of going to the Nets. But there is a chance...

"No comment." Has she been hired as a judge? "No comment." When will Fox announce the new judges? "No comment." Will Randy Jackson be joined by two or three new judges?

But alas, Michael Knight will probably grace us with his booze soaked presence on the DWTS dancefloor of agony in its 11th season. Expect it to be cheese soaked with as many Baywatch and Knight Rider references as they can fit. Media outlets all over the place are reporting that The Hoff is a done deal. Which is good. I'm obsessed with him. I even belong to this nifty fanclub. Does it get worse? Oh yes...yes it does... We're gonna see Kirstie Alley. Stop crying, it'll be ok.

A 2010 Cubs Rant: By Aidan, Age 9 (Plus the latest trade rumors)
2010-07-31 16:32:00 The author in (slightly) happier times at Wrigley Field (shown here with younger brother, Colin) (with typing help from cubbiejulie) This season for the Cubs is going really bad. I don't think they're even going to make it to the World Series. I've seen worse out of every player than ever before. Last night's game was probably one of the worst games they've ever played . . .this season. Tyler Colin was probably the only one out there doing what he was supposed to do. The big question (that I have to say) is why do the Cubs screw up every game? I see the Rockies might have a chance, after that last game with the Cubs, to go...

Adam Dunn to White Sox rumors, and why they're not that exciting
2010-06-30 17:00:00 Apparently the White Sox are so hard up for Adam Dunn, the power-hitting, and even more power-swinging 1st baseman for the Nationals, that they sent scouts to his last game. Scouts! To a Nationals game! When Strasburg wasn't even pitching! The game was in Atlanta though; maybe our guys just wanted to eat at Waffle House.

Cliff Lee to Twins Rumors Are Terrifying If True
2010-06-23 16:35:00 But the Mariners aren't stupid....well....um...ok...do--over. The Marines have made some mistakes in the past operationally, but are at least looking to get their share for Lee. And their share means more than the guy with a .580 OPS in Triple-A this season. Because of that, the Twins will have to ponder whether they are willing to part with two elite prospects, whether they'll risk being outbid by refusing to do so, or contemplate whether they can afford to do anything after they paid Joe Mauer all the money in the world. The Twins are typically not big buyers...ever, but especially not during the trade deadline where front offices are typically forced to overpay for the big shiny player that they refuse to leave the mall without. Take heart in the fact that this is not the type of move the Twins are known to make, but remember that they've also opened a new stadium and thrown out a huge long-term contract this season; so this may be as good of a moment as ever for their fir...

Cubs Draft Rumors
2010-06-06 17:13:00 By Dan CupplesThere lot's of rumors around the web concerning the Cubs potential 1st round pick on Monday. It seems as we sit now 2 names are being linked to the Cubs predominantly, Justin O' Conner (C Cowan HS, Muncie, Ind) and Karsten Whitson (RHP Chipley (Fla) H.S.) Both offer huge upside and could signal a change in draft philosophy by the Cubs. I've profiled O' Conner in the hitters preview and Whitson in "Draft Profile: A.J. Cole and Karsten Whitson" so I will just do a quick review on both. O'Conner has made the transition to C with a plus-plus arm and athleticism. He's still very inexperienced but shows potential to be a well above-average defender to go with a power...

The Latest College Basketball Coaching Rumors
2010-03-25 05:55:00 DePaul is continuing their search for Jerry Wainwright's replacement and has an extensive list of candidates that they are studying. Contrary to a TV report that ran in Chicago last week, Pitt coach Jamie Dixon was never a serious candidate for the job. He is a good friend of DePaul athletic director Jean Lenti Ponsetto and the two keep in touch but Dixon never was offered the job and he never seriously considered it. UCLA coach Ben Howland did consider the DePaul opening but decided on Tuesday to stay in Westwood where he feels his program is poised for a rebound season after a difficult 2009-10 campaign. Other names that have surfaced in connection with the job include Kansas State...

2010-02-15 13:52:00 Per Adrian Wojnarowski:As the Chicago Bulls prepare to trade forward Tyrus Thomas before Thursday's deadline, the franchise's front office has suggested to prospective bidders that they have a solid offer of a middling first-round pick and expiring contracts, league sources told Yahoo! Sports.The Denver Nuggets and Houston Rockets made bids for Thomas over the weekend, league sources said.....Nevertheless, here are two developments to watch with Thomas: Several league executives suggested the Minnesota Timberwolves could be a sleeper for him. Minnesota general manager David Kahn has been researching Thomas and has plenty of assets - three 2010 first-round picks, multiple second-rounders and a host of expiring contracts - to make it happen. Once the Timberwolves trade Al Jefferson this summer, they...

Huet should survive Turco trade rumors to Blackhawks and stay in goal
2010-02-10 21:28:00 The rumors, true or not, are bound to start circulating now about the possibility of the Blackhawks looking into a trade for Stars goalie Marty Turco, the guy they beat Tuesday night 4-3 in a shootout. In fact, it was mentioned on ESPN.com in a blog posting Wednesday between reporters Pierre LeBrun and Scott Burnside. Turco surely looks expendable in Dallas after GM Joe Nieuwendyk acquired goalie Kari Lehtonen from Atlanta Tuesday in a trade. But would Turco be an upgrade over Cristobal Huet? I don't see how.... |
