Rosenthal's Latest: Crosby, Kawakami, Wolf

3:44pm: MLB.com's Jim Street says Crosby cleared waivers.

9:00am: The word from Ken Rosenthal...

• The A's placed shortstop Bobby Crosby on outright waivers in the hope that some team will assume his $5.75MM salary for '09.  After his lousy '08, he may go unclaimed.
• The Braves were focused on Rafael Furcal; they're not looking to add a different infielder as a backup plan.  They still want another starting pitcher.  Dave O'Brien names some possible targets.
• Rosenthal says some teams fear Kenshin Kawakami might want to match Hiroki Kuroda's three-year, $35.3MM deal.
• The Mariners would like to add a left-handed hitter with power; they're waiting for a bargain.
• The Rockies are apparently debating whether to sign Tim Redding or trade for Jason Marquis.  Reports in the Denver Post suggest Redding is the top target.
• Randy Wolf is looking for $30MM over three years.  The Astros were in the $22-24MM range before pulling back.
