NL East Links: Oswalt, Davis, Cedeno, Cuddyer

By Mark Polishuk | December 16, 2011 at 5:41pm CDT

Here's the latest from the National League East…

  • The Nationals "have had little contact with" Roy Oswalt, a source tells MLB.com's Bill Ladson.  We heard last week that Oswalt was the Nats' "plan B" once Mark Buehrle signed with Miami.  The Nats didn't bid on Yu Darvish and won't meet Oakland's price for Gio Gonzalez, so the club may stick with its current rotation.
  • Ladson believes the Nationals will look for bench help before re-entering the pitching market.  To that end, Ladson reports the team is maintaining interest in Mike Cameron, Mark DeRosa and Greg Dobbs.  (Both links go to Ladson's Twitter account.)
  • The Marlins are interested in Rays right-hander Wade Davis, tweets Troy Renck of the Denver Post.  With Matt Moore, David Price, Jeremy Hellickson as untouchables and the Rays seemingly determined to keep James Shields, Davis and Jeff Niemann are the most likely Rays pitchers to be moved, if the club does indeed try to deal from its pitching surplus.  The inter-Florida rivals have already completed one (lower-profile) trade this offseason, involving righty Burke Badenhop.
  • The Mets have talked to Ronny Cedeno and Jack Wilson, reports Jon Heyman of CBSSports.com (Twitter link).  Wilson has been linked to the Mets for a few weeks, but Cedeno is a new name in the mix for the Amazins.  The Red Sox and Braves have also had interest in Cedeno this offseason.
  • Also from Heyman, the Phillies made Michael Cuddyer an early contract offer worth more than $25MM.  The club lost interest in Cuddyer, however, after signing Ty Wigginton and Laynce Nix.  Cuddyer agreed to a three-year, $31.5MM deal today with the Rockies.
  • Dontrelle Willis sounded confident that he will play alongside his longtime friend Jimmy Rollins with the Phillies next season, reports Matt Gelb of the Philadelphia Inquirer.
  • Jose Reyes has yet to speak to Hanley Ramirez since signing with the Marlins, according to The Associated Press.  "As soon as I have the opportunity, I'm going to talk to him, because we are very good friends," Reyes said. "We're both here for one reason — to win the World Series. It doesn't matter where I'm going to play or where he's going to play."
  • The Braves will rely on several players aged 24 and under next season, but Fangraphs' Jason Roberts thinks the health of veterans like Chipper Jones and Tim Hudson are bigger concerns for the club.
