Jason Bay Rumors: Thursday
3:29pm: Bay to the Dodgers? Jennifer Langosch says it's possible.
3:00pm: Rosenthal has a source saying Bay to the Rays is off "unless a miracle happens." He has Bay headed to Boston once again.
2:43pm: MLB.com's Jonathan Mayo says there is no done deal - the Rays might not make Brignac available.
2:11pm: MLB.com's Bill Chastain with the scoop - the Rays have acquired Jason Bay for Reid Brignac and Jeff Niemann. The Rays haven't confirmed it yet though, and Rosenthal says the Bucs want to replace Niemann with other prospects. I wonder if Bay would DH for the Rays.
Will we see a Jack Wilson trade next, or will that wait until the offseason? Brignac, 22, is hitting .257/.304/.429 in 91 Triple A games. He probably isn't ready yet. Baseball America still expects him to develop into a solid offensive-minded shortstop.
Niemann, 25, has a 3.53 ERA in 18 Triple A starts this year. He'll probably go straight into the Pirates' rotation. Baseball America feels he has #2 or #3 starter stuff, but his star has dimmed in recent times.
