@JimBowden_ESPN: Braves are close to signing Alberto Callaspo

TUESDAY, 1:44am: Lester’s limbo could continue until Wednesday, WEEI.com’s Rob Bradford tweets. Team owners are now involved in the process and are slowing it down.

1:21am: Lester has six- and seven-year offers in hand, Jon Heyman of CBS Sports tweets. It’s possible, however, that Lester won’t take the biggest-money offer. Heyman tweets that Lester’s deal is expected to wind up being somewhere from $150MM to $175MM.

Come on. End this Lester crap.

Huh, a baseball boy from a basketball family.................

It looks like Saxon was wrong and Thompson isn't in the trade.

@markasaxon: One of the prospects A's got for Jeff Samardzija is Trayce Thompson, younger brother of Klay Thompson, son of ESPNLA's own Mychal Thompson

@JonHeymanCBS: hear lester has 6-year and 7-year offers. wont necessarily take the biggest $ offer tho.

@BNightengale: The Chicago #Whitesox have just signed closer David Robertson to a 4 year deal in excess of $40 million.

11:59pm: Robertson’s deal is worth $46MM over four years, according to Jon Heyman of CBSSports.com (via Twitter).

Profar or Odor, Luke Jackson, and Nomar Mazara for Justin Upton

That sounds good to me.

@Ken_Rosenthal: If #Cubs get Lester, industry source says next move would be to pursue big bat and try to accelerate revival. A bat in addition to Montero.

@BNightengale: The #Braves now are packaging OF Justin Upton and 3B Kelly Johnson in trade talks with teams.

• The Red Sox have made an offer to Justin Masterson, according to Jon Heyman of CBSSports.com (on Twitter). The pitcher is also talking with the Rangers, Marlins, White Sox, Royals, Giants, Twins, and others.  Earlier today we learned that the Rangers have made an offer to Masterson, their first concrete bid for a free agent starter this winter.

I hope the Rangers sign him.

@JonHeymanCBS: jeff samarzija is on the verge of being traded. the white sox are the likely landing spot. http://t.co/roBpJjMEVv

@Ken_Rosenthal: Sources: #DBacks would need to be "overwhelmed" to move Trumbo. #Mariners among teams monitoring. @JeffPassan reported Trumbo in play.

That may have been the year he was diagnosed with cancer...

Nope. Those were his numbers in 2012. His numbers (other than win/loss record) weren't that good in 2013 either. He had cancer in 2006.

In order to be anywhere close to Lester, they'll have to move Wilson first. Gotta happen quickly.

Lol. Wilson isn't going anywhere. 

@Ken_Rosenthal: Sources: Barring late change, Lester choosing between #Cubs, #SFGiants.

Jon Lester‘s decision about a new team could swing the balance of the entire offseason, so let’s get to the latest updates on the free agent southpaw…

• Lester’s camp is waiting to see if a club will up its offer to the $150MM level and/or include a seventh year, whether guaranteed or through a vesting option, per a report from Sean McAdam of CSNNE.com. The bidding is believed to be sitting around $140MM over six years at present, McAdam adds.

Lester will make his decision in less that 24 hrs

My guess is cubs

Im sure it will be either the Cubs or Red Sox.

The Angels just claimed a Astros 1B/OF reject. He's put up Mathis type numbers. More minor league roster filler.

The Angels don't plan on eating any of his contract. Good luck trading him without eating any of his contract.

We'd need at least Bruce Chen.

Wrong chin.

@MikeDiGiovanna: #Angels (cont): There was heavy interest in Kendrick early, but trade for RHP Nick Tropeano has lessened need/desire to trade the 2B.

can't Grant Green play SS?

or we will find someone else.

He can't even play 2B.
