Dodgers officially acquire RHP Ricky Nolasco

Dodgers acquired RHP Ricky Nolasco from the Marlins for RHPs Josh Wall, Steven Ames and Angel Sanchez.

The Dodgers will cover the entire $5.7 million remaining on Nolasco's contract, and they'll get $197,000 in international cap space in return from Miami. The veteran right-hander will carry better potential for wins out in Los Angeles and should fare quite well if he can continue to pitch like he did this year in Miami. Nolasco can become a free agent this November.

Orioles have not made an offer to Nelson Cruz

Contrary to reports, the Orioles have not made an offer to free agent Nelson Cruz, according to MASN's Roch Kubatko.

Jon Heyman of CBS Sports said the team has made an offer in the range of four years and $60 million to the 33-year-old, but multiple team sources say that's untrue. Kubatko said he was told earlier in the week that the Orioles' interest in Cruz was exaggerated.

Choo considering seven-year deal from Rangers

Shin-Soo Choo is considering a seven-year deal from the Rangers, according to MLB.com's T.R. Sullivan.

The deal is less than the seven-year, $153 million contract Jacoby Ellsbury got from the Yankees, with Sullivan saying the deal is possibly in the $130 million range. There is talk that Choo is seeking an eight-year deal, and Sullivan says Choo has previously turned down a six-year offer from the Rangers. Choo has also drawn interest from the Mariners.

Astros in 'serious' discussions with Morse

The Astros are in "serious" discussions with Mike Morse, according to FOX Sports' Ken Rosenthal.

Morse is 31 years old and coming off an injury-plagued season, so the Astros would be buying low on the slugger. ESPN's Buster Olney previously reported Morse is looking for a one-year deal in the $7-8 million range. He'd likely serve as the team's designated hitter and first baseman. The Rockies have also been linked to the outfielder.

O's offer to Cruz in range of 4 years, $60MM

The Orioles' offer to Nelson Cruz is believed to be in the range of four years and $60 million, CBS Sports' Jon Heyman is reporting.

The parameters of that offer are the same as what Curtis Granderson got from the Mets. Cruz was believed to have rejected an offer of five years and $75 million previously, but no team will confirm such an offer was made. The Mariners and Rangers are also in on 33-year-old.

Indians make offer to former closer Axford

The Indians have made an offer to John Axford, according to Jon Heyman of CBS Sports.

The Indians are still searching for next year's closer after releasing Chris Perez earlier this offseason. Axford began last season as the Brewers' closer but struggled in the role, eventually being traded to the Cardinals and finishing the season in a middle relief role. The Orioles, Cubs and Mariners are all in on the 30-year-old as well.

O's considering contract extension for Hardy

The Orioles have considered discussing a contract extension with J.J. Hardy, according to Britt Ghiroli of MLB.com.

"J.J. has had a couple really good years for the team," executive vice president of baseball operations Dan Duquette said Wednesday, "and I think the interest is mutual between he and the Orioles and extending that relationship." Hardy's name came up in trade rumors earlier this offseason, but nothing ever got too serious. The 31-year-old was a Silver Slugger and Gold Glove winner this past season and will be in the final year of a three-year, $22.5 million deal in 2014.

Report: Choo looking for eight-year deal

Jeff Passan of Yahoo! Sports writes that the general sense among teams is that Shin-Soo Choo will sign if he gets an eight-year deal.

Previous reports indicated that he was looking for a deal in the range of Jacoby Ellsubry's seven-year, $153 million contract with the Yankees, but it appears that he's aiming higher. Passan hears that he already has one seven-year offer on the table. The 31-year-old outfielder has been mentioned in connection with the Mariners and Rangers in recent days.

Report: Tanaka is D-Backs' No. 1 target

FOX Sports' Ken Rosenthal reports that Japanese right-hander Masahiro Tanaka is the Diamondbacks' No. 1 target.

The Diamondbacks are reportedly targeting starters via free agency and trade, but Tanaka is at the top of their list. Of course, we're not sure he will actually be posted yet and Arizona figures to have plenty of competition to sign him.

Jose Veras turns down offer from Astros

Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports that Jose Veras has turned down an offer from the Astros.

The two sides are still negotiating. Veras enjoyed success in the closer role with the Astros this past season before being traded to the Tigers in late July. If brought back to Houston, he would presumably get save chances once again.

Mets, Colon agree to two-year, $20M deal

FOX Sports' Ken Rosenthal reports that the Mets and Bartolo Colon have agreed to a two-year, $20 million contract, pending a physical.

Sweeny Murti of WFAN previously reported that the two sides were discussing a deal. Colon turns 41 in May, so giving him a two-year deal is a bit of a risk, but the price is reasonable enough in this market. The veteran right-hander posted a 2.65 ERA and 117/29 K/BB ratio over 190 1/3 innings this past season with Oakland. He'll join a Mets' rotation which also includes Jon Niese, Dillon Gee, and Zack Wheeler.

Ben Nicholson-Smith of Sportsnet.ca passed along the contract details. Davis, 33, batted .260/.312/.375 with six homers and 45 stolen bases this past season and figures to platoon with Andy Dirks in left field in Detroit.
