HOT REPORTS

Anyone hear the report on MLB Network this morning (tweeted @TysonKFAN) about Justin Upton and Taijuan Walker (which would be new news on that subject)? My own guess is that Seattle is running out of options and might have to meet Atlanta’s price: Kemp either going nowhere or to San Diego; no other impact bats available, suspect Melky Cabrera might not want to go the Seattle at all.
Never mind – there’s nothing whatsoever going on w/Braves & Mariners at this time. Melky still very much on the table for them.
