Cubs, Indians Interested In Roberts

Ken Rosenthal is back with a bang, penning a new article about Erik Bedard and Brian Roberts trade possibilities.  We already updated you on the Bedard situation over yonder.

Rosenthal says the Cubs are still the best fit for Roberts, also noting interest from the Mets and Indians. Last we heard, the Cubs' offer included Sean Gallagher and Matt Murton but not Rich Hill or Felix Pie.  Ronny Cedeno, Sean Marshall, and Donnie Veal could also be in the mix.

Interesting to hear that the Tribe is quietly taking a look at both Roberts and Bedard, just as they were quietly players for Dan Haren.   Bedard could fill the void if C.C. Sabathia were to leave via free agency.  What would a Roberts acquisition mean?  Asdrubal Cabrera to short, Jhonny Peralta to third or traded?
