Royals DFA'd Joe Blanton earlier this week to make room for Cueto. I really wanted the Jays to get him but nope, he's gone to the Pirates just now for cash considerations.

Just heard from Brewers GM Doug Melvin. Gomez trade was in place. Medicals did nix it. Couldn't give details. Story coming.
The trade was agreed upon pending physicals. Carlos Gomez was told he was traded to the Mets.. Flores crying on the field aaftera standing ovation. This is crazy
