Quick Hits: Kubel, Bell, Marlins, Upton

By Zach Links | August 27, 2011 at 3:51pm CDT

Hurricane Irene has resulted in the cancellation of five Saturday games, but we still have plenty of news for your to pore over..

  • The Indians and Twins did exchange names on a potential Jason Kubel deal but Minnesota wanted more than the Tribe was willing to give for a short-term rental, according to Ken Rosenthal of FOX Sports (via Twitter).
  • More from Rosenthal (via Twitter) as he says that the talks between the Padres and Giants on Heath Bell never got very far.  The claim was more than just a block, but the Giants didn't want to give up real value for the closer.
  • The Marlins preference is to hire a manager who they believe will hold that job for years to come rather than keep Jack McKeon, tweets Buster Olney of ESPN.com.  McKeon will celebrate his 81st birthday this fall.
  • No surprise here but Olney tweets that it's unlikely that we'll see B.J. Upton traded following the waiver claim.  The Rays would probably be benefit from listening to multiple teams this winter.
