The New York Post?s Joel Sherman hears that the Rangers are ?right there? with the Dodgers in the bidding for Zack Greinke, with the Nationals possibly still in the mix and the Angels nearly out of it.
Jon Heyman of CBSSports.com doesn?t see anyone hanging with the Dodgers, though:
But it seems pretty clear who is going to offer Greinke the biggest deal. The Dodgers seem determined to sign him, no matter the cost. As Dodgers president Stan Kasten said, ?We are the opposite of the mystery team.?
The Braves have also touched base with Greinke, and Atlanta may well be the right-hander?s preferred destination given similar deals. However, the Braves aren?t likely to come in close to the Dodgers? bid, especially not after splurging for B.J. Upton. Besides, their rotation is pretty good as is.
Greinke is certainly going to top Matt Cain?s five-year, $112.5 million deal and land the biggest contract for a right-handed pitcher in major league history. The real question is whether he?ll also surpass CC Sabathia?s seven-year, $161 million deal and get the largest pitching contract overall.
