Week In Review: 7/4/10 – 7/10/10

By Zachary Links | July 11, 2010 at 7:43pm CDT

It's time to take a look back at the week that was..

  • The Cliff Lee sweepstakes came to an end when the Rangers landed the lefty for Justin Smoak and a trio of minor leaguers.  The Yankees thought they had struck a deal for Lee in exchange for a package centered around Jesus Montero, but that wasn't the case.  However, many believe that the Yankees still have the best chance of signing Lee this offseason.
  • Meanwhile, after sending Smoak to the M's, Texas is interested in Xavier Nady.
  • The Brewers are reportedly listening to offers for Prince Fielder and Corey Hart.  However, the club is not interested in moving Rickie Weeks.
  • The Giants won't discuss an extension for Aubrey Huff during the season.
  • We've been hearing Jayson Werth's name quite a bit lately and the Red Sox are one of the teams showing interest.
  • San Francisco GM Brian Sabean likes Corey Hart, but is said to prefer a left-handed bat.
  • Roy Oswalt is not interested in playing for the White Sox or Tigers.
  • We've heard the Mets linked to several starting pitchers, though they may not have the financial freedom to make a move at the deadline.
  • The Astros shelled out upwards of $2MM to land top Dominican outfield prospect Ariel Ovando.  The Blue Jays also opened up the vault to sign Venezuelan righty Adonis Cardona.
  • Kerry Wood, Jake Westbrook, and Austin Kearns are drawing interest from teams.
  • The Cubs want to unload some of their cumbersome salaries.
  • Stephen Drew is reportedly a player of interest to the Tigers, though there have not been talks yet between Detroit and Arizona.
  • The White Sox are said to be "all over Adam Dunn".  Meanwhile, the Nats are drawing interest in Cristian Guzman and Adam Kennedy.
  • Interest is picking up in Toronto reliever Scott Downs and the Phillies are looking into the 34-year-old.
  • Teams are inquiring on Yunel Escobar, who has struggled in the first half of the year.
  • The BoSox have yet to approach Victor Martinez about an extension.
  • Pittsburgh acquired the recently DFA'd Sean Gallagher from the Padres.
  • Jim Leyland shot down reports of Rick Porcello being a trade chip for the Tigers.
  • Meanwhile, Detroit has begun scouting relievers.
  • Torii Hunter wants to see the Halos pursue a big-time bat.
  • Arizona designated Dontrelle Willis for assignment.
  • The Rockies will wait until the end of the month to make deals.
  • Halos skipper Mike Scioscia wants depth, not rental players.
  • Carlos Delgado wants to get back to baseball within the month.
  • Cardinals GM John Mozeliak wants to add personality to the team's clubhouse.
  • GM Jon Daniels can opt out of his deal in Texas if the ownership changes.
  • The Cardinals signed Mike MacDougal after having bullpen trouble recently.
  • Chad Tracy hooked on with the Yankees.
  • The Braves signed Willy Taveras.
  • Barret Loux, the D'Backs first-round selection in this year's draft, failed his physical.
  • Ben spoke with Toronto GM Alex Anthopoulos, who is pleased with his recent free agent additions.
  • Howard took a look back at Gary Sheffield and the 1994 Trade Deadline.
