The New York Mets are reportedly interested in first baseman Kevin Millar and outfielders Jason Bay and Xavier Nady, according to The Philadelphia Daily News. General Manager Omar Minaya is interested in fortifying the team's roster with first baseman, leftfielders and righthanded relieve pitchers.

Livan Hernandez could be on the trading block as Minnesota doesn't feel his value will be any higher than it is right now, according to The Pioneer Press. The right-hander, 33, could be dealt by the Twins for some power by July's All-Star Game. He becomes a free agent at the end of the season and has pitched very well this year. He's 6-2 with a 4.22 ERA in eleven appearances for the Twins in 2008.

The Rangers could look to deal Hank Blalock if things go south this season, according to The Dallas Morning News. The club has an option to retain him for 2009, but they aren't expected to pick it up and could look to acquire something in return for the slugger. Blalock, who is currently on the disabled list, is hitting .299 with three home runs and seven RBI's this season. The Rangers are in third place in the AL West, 5.5 games behind the Angels heading into Wednesday night's action.

White Sox general manager Ken Williams is rumored to be interested in Angels infielder Chone Figgins but he understands acquiring him won't be easy, according to The Chicago Sun-Times. A source close to the White Sox said that Williams began sending out "feelers" about two weeks ago regarding his interest in Figgins. "That's an interesting name, and a name that I, yeah ... they're a pretty good team and they need ... I'm talking about the guys that will ultimately be available, and I don't know if they will be any better than what we already got," Williams said Tuesday. "Again, the key phrase being that they will ultimately be available. Not that I can't sit here and play the fantasy game. Hell, I can play that game and come up with a bunch of people. Reality, that's the game I have to deal in."

There is some belief that the Rockies could deal outfielder Matt Holliday similar to the way the Rangers traded Mark Teixeira last summer, according to The Rocky Mountain News. Teixeira and Holliday share Scott Boras as an agent. Colorado wasn't able to work out a long-term extension with Holliday in the offseason, something that still has yet to become a reality.

Reds general manager Walt Jocketty has yet to discuss trading outfielder Ken Griffey Jr. with any other team, according to The Cincinnati Enquirer. "I've had no trade discussions," Jocketty said on Wednesday. The GM has talked with Griffey about the situation though, as the player has the right to veto any trade the Reds attempt to make. "I've talked with him," Jocketty said. "Not knowing Junior that well, I wanted to make sure we had a line of communication open. He assured me that he'd like to play here and hopefully win a championship." Dealing Griffey would open up a spot for Jay Bruce, one of the top prospects in all of baseball.

The Mariners have reportedly sent an executive to check out Reds' outfielder Ken Griffey Jr., according to The Dayton Daily News. President Chuck Armstrong wants Griffey back in Seattle to help boost the team's attendance, and Cincinnati is rumored to be interested in ridding themselves of his salary. Duane Shaffer, a special assistant to the organization, was at Shea Stadium this weekend to check out the former Seattle legend. When Griffey was asked about Shaffer's visit, he said, "Don't know the man. Never heard of him. I just live and play for the present. I've never been a what-if guy."

The Pirates have fielded numerous calls for outfielders Jason Bay and Xavier Nady, according to The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette. The team apparently doesn't want to deal either of the hitters, but Pittsburgh management is known for dealing stars for lower-profile and more affordable players. The team, however, still feels as though they can contend in 2008.

With rumors swirling that the Reds plan to deal outfielder Ken Griffey Jr. after he hits the 600th home run of his career, there seems to be a possibility that he could return to Seattle where his career began, according to The Seattle Post-Intelligencer. Griffey hasn't indicated a desire to leave Cincinnati, but hasn't brushed off the idea of returning to the Mariners either. "I said the exact same thing last year," Griffey told a Cincinnati media horde. "So why is it such a big story now? If I would have changed anything from last year, it would be a story. But I said the same thing. What's the big deal?" "Kenny is one of my all-time favorites," Seattle manager John McLaren said. "I think he was the player for the '90s. I can't comment on somebody else's player, but I think the world of him. I'm anxious for him to get his 600th homer, and I think if he had been healthy (since leaving Seattle) he'd be at 700 now."

The Reds are likely to deal Ken Griffey, Jr. soon after he hits his 600th home run. The club will not be picking up his $16.5 million option for 2009 and he wants to win a championship. "It's everybody's dream to go back where they started," said Griffey when asked about Seattle. "Everybody who plays the game would love to go out the way they see fit." The Reds are also likely to deal Adam Dunn. RealGM Note: Griffey currently has a -82% Reina Value as the 373rd best player according to our FIC statistic. He is only 'deserves' a $1.45 million salary based on his production. Dunn is ranked 217th and has a -67% Reina Value.
