Molony's Latest: Willis, Encarnacion, Sowers

MLB.com's Jim Molony has his daily rumor summary up; check it out.  New rumors:

• Molony's sources say the Marlins are now listening to offers for Dontrelle Willis.  Might as well - what if the Mariners decide to offer Adam Jones?  Many folks remain enamored of Willis's talent, if not his recent numbers.
• The Cardinals could shop Russ Springer or Juan Encarnacion.  Springer is unlikely to be traded, however, because he has his son going to a specific school in St. Louis and the Cardinals respect that.  Encarnacion is hitting decently at .293/.329/.471; it might be high time to unload the $6.5MM he's owed next year.
• Something seems to be going on in Cleveland; GM Mark Shapiro has been in Buffalo watching Jeremy Sowers and Aaron Laffey.  Laffey was nearly called up recently.  Not much talk about trading Sowers previously, but he might be an interesting chip.  He's similar to Kevin Slowey. They might find success in the NL.
• The Tigers sent scouts to watch Joe Koshansky and Ian Stewart of the Rockies (rumor originated in the Denver Post).  Not sure how those two teams match up, but a cheap Koshansky might be worth a look for Detroit at first base next year.  Unless Carlos Guillen moves over.
