Yeah getting back a minor leaguer and they are sending the Cards 1.75 to help offset that salary.
I really don't know what the Astros are doing. With their handling of the #1 pick this year, the supposed commitment to the young team, now they are looking at unloading Jarred Cosart? A 24 year old who looks like the real deal that's not even Arbitration eligible till 2017? What the hell are they doing down there. Things were looking so good for them a few months ago.

edit: Just read....Joe Kelly and Allen Craig for John Lackey? ? IDK that seems a bit steep. There's gotta be something else coming back to St. Louis If that's the deal straight up, the Sox just kinda robbed St Louis I hate everything right now. If they subbed Tavaras for Craig and added a majors ready prospect, David Price would be STL bound. Instead we've gotta hide all the chicken and beer. That and he'll probably up and retire on us due to having to work for $500,000 next season.

Corey Litrell is the minor leaguer sent to St. Louis.
EDIT: Mariners get Chris Denofria from the Padres for Abraham "I can't get on base yet I still lead-off" Almonte and Stephen Kohlscheen and the Brewers get Gerardo Parra from the D'Backs for Mitch Haniger and Anthony Banda.

MLB Network put a tweet from a fake Ken Rosenthal account on TV saying that the Tigers were close to acquiring David Price and Ben Zobrist. Ken Rosenthal was in the building at the time.

I like what the Cardinals did. To get Masterson and Lackey without giving up much is an accomplishment.

Craig was declining after the all star break last year, and has continued this year. Plus he's injury prone as hell. Kelly is good for like 5-6 innings 3-4 runs every time. From what I'm hearing from reporters Lackey told Mo he's playing next year. Just need Taveras to start hitting now Sent from my SCH-I545 using proboards

David Price is headed to the Tigers
Edit: Oh, and Ben Zobrist is headed to Pittsburgh.
Edit 2: Maybe not on Zobrist. It looks like ESPN might have gotten got by a fake account

Y'know, Detroit, you could've avoided having to give up anything to get Price if you had simply not given Fister away to the Nats for friggin' nothing.
Yankees get Stephen Drew and Martin Prado, because eventually some shit will stick against the wall of Brian Cashman's office.

MLB.com's Brian McTaggart reports that the Marlins have acquired Jarred Cosart and Enrique Hernandez from the Astros.
Colin Moran, Jake Marisnick and a compensation pick are expected to head to the Astors in the deal.

@mattgelb Amaro said Phillies did not ask for “top prospects.” Criticized other GMs for not being aggressive enough.

I dunno man, I think they gave up a bit much for Lackey Craig's really fallen off a cliff, hitting only .254/.319/.367 since August 1 of last year. Plus he's already 30 and will be getting $26.5mm over the next 3 seasons. Kelly looks decent but will likely end up in the bullpen.
