Giants May Be Willing To Pay Tax For Chase Utley - RealGM Wiretap
The San Francisco Giants have crossed a new payroll boundary and might continue to add salary before the Aug. 31 deadline for setting postseason rosters.
For the first time http://www.wildhockeyauthentic.com/eric-staal-jersey/ , the Giants are in position to exceed the luxury-tax threshold, according to sources.
San Francisco continues to explore trades for hitters like Chase Utley.
The luxury tax threshold, introduced in the 2003-06 collective-bargaining agreement, is $189 million. The Giants were about $1.5 million over that figure before adding Mike Leake on July 30. Absorbing the remaining $3.58 million on Leakes contract put the team about $5 million over the limit, according to sources.
If the Giants finish the season above the threshold, they will pay a 17.5 percent tax on the overage as a first-time offender.
Hart Would Have Taken Less To Stay With Brewers - RealGM Wiretap
Corey Hart, who signed a one-year http://www.wildhockeyauthentic.com/josh-harding-jersey/ , $6 million deal with the Seattle Mariners this offseason, says he would have taken less to remain with the Milwaukee Brewers.
However, Hart told a group of reporters that Milwaukee's offer "wasn't really close at all."
The best offer Hart received from the Brewers is believed to be a $4 million deal with $2.5 million in incentives. The outfielder's deal with Seattle can be worth as much as $10.65 million.
"I even talked to [Brewers GM Doug Melvin], and he basically said, 'I couldn't turn that down, so why would you be expected to?' They understood there was a huge gap," Hart said. "It was one of those things where I would have liked to stay if it was close http://www.wildhockeyauthentic.com/jason-pominville-jersey/ , but in the long run it wasn't that close, and they weren't pushing like [the Mariners] were."
Ichiro Now Just Three Hits Shy Of 3000 - RealGM Wiretap
With a single on Tuesday night, Ichiro Suzuki now sits just three hits shy of 3,000 for his Major League career.
Ichiro had gone 0-for-7 in the at-bats leading up to the single.
He is not expected to start on Wednesday afternoon when the Miami Marlins take on the Philadelphia Phillies.
He would be the 30th player in Major League history to reach 3,000 hits.
Ludwick Gets $15M From Cincinnati - RealGM Wiretap
The contract agreement that Ryan Ludwick reached with the Reds on Friday is worth $15 million over two years, according to a source.
Ludwick hit .275 with 26 homers, 80 RBIs and an .877 OPS as Cincinnati's regular left fielder in 2012.
He made a base salary of $2 million last season. The Cincinnati Enquirer reported that his new contract includes a mutual option for 2015.
Cardinals Rangers Havent Discussed Profar Taveras Deal - RealGM Wiretap
The Texas Rangers have a hole in the outfield and the St. Louis Cardinals one in the infield http://www.wildhockeyauthentic.com/zach-parise-jersey/ , but the two clubs haven't discussed swapping their top prospects.
Oscar Taveras is one of the game's best outfield prospects, while Jurickson Profar is one of the best shortstop prospects.
"It makes all sorts of sense and there is no way to do it," said an official with an American League team who has scouted both players. "The Cardinals need a shortstop. The Rangers need an outfielder. The answer is there for both for years to come. You just can't do it. You can't be the guy who is wrong if one works out and becomes a star as expected and the other doesn't.
"Then you're the new Brock-for-Broglio guy."
