Winter Meetings Review: Day 2

After a relatively quiet Monday in Orlando, the second day of 2013's Winter Meetings brought a little more excitement, as a couple of notable trade candidates found new homes. Let's round up Tuesday's top MLB headlines…

Transactions:

• The Diamondbacks, Angels, and White Sox consummated the biggest deal of the week so far, working out a three-team trade that sends Mark Trumbo to Arizona, Adam Eaton to Chicago, and Hector Santiago and Tyler Skaggs to the Angels. The D-Backs will also receive a couple minor-leaguers in the swap.
• The Rockies landed a starter they'd been linked to frequently in the last week, agreeing to acquire Brett Anderson from the Athletics, along with $2MM in cash, in exchange for Drew Pomeranz and Chris Jensen.
• After we heard on Monday that he was nearing a deal, Rajai Davis agreed to terms with the Tigers on a two-year pact that will pay him $10MM.
• Shortly after non-tendering him, the Mets re-signed the rehabbing Jeremy Hefner to a minor league contract.
• Ryan Webb passed his physical and finalized his deal with the Orioles.
• The Rangers officially announced the signing of J.P. Arencibia.
• The Marlins finalized their signing of Garrett Jones.

Rumors:

• The Phillies are willing to discuss Cliff Lee and Cole Hamels in trade talks, but it sounds like they'll only consider move one of their aces if they receive a huge return and shed significant salary.
• Having acquired Trumbo, the Diamondbacks have shifted their focus to landing a front-line starting pitcher. That deal also allowed the Angels to free up some money to pursue pitching.
• The Orioles are currently viewed as the frontrunners to land Grant Balfour.
• As the top second baseman still available on the free agent market, Omar Infante is seeking a contract worth $8MM+ per season.
• The Indians are open to listening to offers for Asdrubal Cabrera in addition to Justin Masterson.
• Danny Espinosa is drawing trade interest from the Yankees and other teams, but so far the Nats are balking at moving him.
• The Dodgers and Rangers seem increasingly unlikely to trade for David Price, opening the door for the Mariners. Nonetheless, Seattle remains reluctant to include Taijuan Walker in any offer.
• The market for Shin-Soo Choo is up in the air, since Tuesday's developments reduced the likelihood of him landing with the D-Backs or Tigers. Meanwhile, at least one report suggested the Rangers believe Choo may be too expensive for them.
• Any team interested in acquiring Domonic Brown may have to send the Phillies two or three young players in return.
• The Blue Jays reportedly offered Colby Rasmus to a pair of teams in an effort to bolster their starting rotation.
• The Red Sox appear to be out on Matt Kemp, but the Tigers and Mariners may still be involved.
• Jason Bay has an offer from NPB's Yomiuri Giants, and may play in Japan in 2014.
• The Rockies had been pushing hard to acquire Reds reliever Sean Marshall, but concerns about Marshall's health may ultimately kill those negotiations.
• Though it seemed as if we may get a decision from free agent Corey Hart Tuesday night, it looks like we'll have to wait until at least Wednesday for word on Hart.
• No updates on the Masahiro Tanaka front — the Rakuten Golden Eagles are still undecided on whether or not to post him.
• Former Athletics ace Mark Mulder is making a comeback bid.
• While Brett Gardner has been the subject of some trade rumors this week, the Yankees are more likely to keep him and try to move Ichiro Suzuki.
• The Pirates have resumed talks with free agent first baseman James Loney, but are probably out on Bronson Arroyo. The Twins, Mets, and Reds remain in the mix for Arroyo.
• While the Twins don't have an offer out to Arroyo or Johan Santana, they've reportedly made a proposal to Mike Pelfrey.
• Joba Chamberlain allegedly has a one-year, $3MM offer in hand. It doesn't appear to be from the Diamondbacks, despite the fact that they're eyeing Joba. The Astros also like the righty as a buy-low candidate.
• The Brewers, Pirates, Mariners, and Orioles are among seven teams in on Logan Morrison.
• Kevin Youkilis is receiving some interest, but prefers to sign with a west coast team close to his California home.
• The Pirates are open to listening to offers for southpaw Justin Wilson, and the Nats could be a suitor.
• The White Sox are "determined" to leave Orlando with a catcher.
• Bartolo Colon is being eyed by the Rangers and Orioles.
• Although the Mets are in play for Stephen Drew, at least one exec expects him to return to the Red Sox.
• The Dodgers, Marlins, and White Sox all have some level of interest in Juan Uribe, though various reports suggested neither Miami nor Chicago is a serious suitor.
• The Royals haven't ruled out the possibility of trading Billy Butler.
• At least seven teams have interest in Eric Chavez.
• The Cubs, Pirates, Royals, and Braves are in the mix for Jason Hammel.
• Michael Morse, Jesse Crain, and Chad Gaudin are a few of the names on the Astros' radar. Morse is reportedly seeking a $7-8MM salary for one year.
• The Mariners are interested in Fernando Rodney.
