Major League Baseball’s winter GM Meetings have wrapped up, leaving 30 general managers set to start their off-season renovations. TSN.ca looks at the day’s hottest rumours as free agent season gets off the ground. Cueto to Go? The Cincinnati Reds had a disappointing 2014 season and need to improve offensively if they hope to compete in 2015. With a strong starting rotation in hand and some top pitching prospects in the pipeline, the Reds might be in line to trade ace Johnny Cueto. According to ESPNs Mike Petriello, the Los Angeles Dodgers and the Boston Red Sox may be potential suitors for Cueto due to their need for starting pitching and their outfield depth. Cueto, who is entering the final year of his contract which pays him $10 million per season, would likely command a package north of $150 million, writes John Fay of the Cincinnati Enquirer. Fay also states that even though Cueto may be a great trade chip, the chances of dealing him are close to zero as the Reds are still looking to compete next season. Cueto posted a 20-9 record with a 2.25 earned run average and 242 strikeouts with the Reds last season. Calling for Cole The Philadelphia Phillies are finally looking to rebuild and the first move might be to deal ace Cole Hamels. The lefty has four years remaining on his contract which pays him $22.5 million per year. The one caveat is Hamels has a list of 20 teams on his no-trade list, limiting the Phillies overall options. ESPNs Jim Bowden feels there are four teams who match up the best with Philadelphia including the Chicago Cubs, St. Louis Cardinals, Los Angeles Dodgers and Boston Red Sox. Hamels registered a 9-9 record with a 2.46 earned run average and 198 strikeouts with the Phillies this past season. Miller on the Rise After a post-season where relief pitchers were critical to team success, the market for free agent relievers is rising in value. One of the top free agent bullpen arms this off-season is Andrew Miller, who is looking for an average annual value that is astounding, said a source to Jason Mastrodonato of MassLive.com. The Boston Red Sox would love to re-acquire the lefty who is seeking at least a four-year deal. Miller had a record of 5-5, an earned run average of 2.02 and 103 strikeouts in 62.1 innings last season with the Red Sox and the Baltimore Orioles. Edrice Adebayo Jersey . 1 player in the world.

Shaquille ONeal Jersey .Y. - The New York Islanders are brimming with confidence these days, thanks to a standout goalie and a newfound winning attitude. Cheap Heat Jerseys . Each day, TSN.ca provides the latest rumours, reports and speculation from around the NHL beat. Defensive Depth TSN Hockey Insider Pierre LeBrun is reporting the Toronto Maple Leafs have considerable interest in unrestricted free-agent defenceman Dan Boyle.VANCOUVER - The New York Rangers knew exactly what to expect from the Vancouver Canucks and made them pay dearly.Mats Zuccarello scored twice and Henrik Lundqvist made 29 saves Saturday as New York steamrolled Vancouver 5-1 by taking advantage of the Canucks tendency to pinch their defence at the opposing teams blue-line.The Rangers scored on three odd-man rushes in quick succession to effectively put the game out of reach before it was seven minutes old.We pre-scouted, our coaches talked about that a lot, said New York defenceman Ryan McDonagh, who opened the scoring. It was going to be a big job for our wingers to either hold onto pucks or not get it back to them or get it out of the zone.We were able to do that right away in the first period and we got some good looks because of it.J.T. Miller and Marc Staal had the other goals for New York (13-10-4), while Rick Nash and Derick Brassard each added two assists.We talked about them pinching, said Lundqvist, whose team hadnt played since Monday and had lost two of its last three. I didnt think they were going to go that hard every time. It was almost like a 50-50 puck they were going for it and we made them pay, especially in the first period.Nick Bonino had the only goal for Vancouver (18-10-2), while Ryan Miller made 18 stops in taking the ugly loss.Theres no excuse for that. We know that weve got to be better than that, said Canucks head coach Willie Desjardins. Sometimes theres nights like this. Theyre never acceptable, but the only thing we can do is get better. We have no choice. The only choice we have is to get better.The Canucks were playing at home for the first time since Nov. 25 after wrapping up a season-long seven-game road trip that saw them go a respectable 3-3-1, but finish with consecutive defeats in Toronto, Ottawa and Montreal. Desjardins said changes will be coming in his teams approach ahead of Wednesdays home tilt against the Dallas Stars.You play a certain way and we played a certain way and now were getting caught on it, he said. We try to play an aggressive style and when it doesnt work it goes the other way and it was going the other way tonight.I think we have to make some adjustments in the system.After a bad pinch from defenceman Ryan Stanton — one of many culprits on this night — Jesper Fast fed McDonagh on a 3-on-1 break for his first of the season at 2:36 of the opening period to make it 1-0.The Rangers then somehow broke in on a 4-on-1 rush shortly after that failed to connect before J.T. Miller buried his third of the season on a 2-on-1 break with a nice move to the backhand at 3:19.Zuccarello continued the onslaught at 6:46 on another 3-on-1, ripping home his fifth of the campaign as New York scored on three straight shots.Wrong decisions all over the ice, said Canucks captain Henrik Sedin. Forwards not coming back, not keeping the thhird guy high, defence pinching when they shouldnt.dddddddddddd On every one of those you can point out three or four mistakes. Its not just one guy, its from all five guys on the ice.Ryan Miller couldnt be faulted on any of the goals, but still felt the sting of being down three so early at home.We got caught a few times and they made the odd-man rushes count. I would have liked to have been a little bit more available to make a save for the boys, but it didnt work out, he said. They set up some plays and made them count.Staal made it 4-1 at 7:17 of the second when his first of the season found its way through a screen past Ryan Miller, who looked especially frustrated and shrugged his shoulders as the Rangers celebrated at the Canucks blue-line.New Yorks Martin St. Louis was awarded a penalty shot just over five minutes later after getting hooked on a breakaway, but he couldnt beat the Vancouver goalie.But any good feeling didnt last long as Zuccarello scored his second of the night and sixth of the season with 2:21 left in the period by tapping home a slick pass from Brassard.Youve got to give yourself a chance to win and we didnt, said Desjardins. We cant blame anybody but ourselves in the structure. Its the not the players, its the coaches. Its my fault. If were getting scored on like that then weve got to do some adjustments system-wise. Weve all got to get better.The one thing about games like that is you just realize you need each other. You cant do it by yourself. One guy cant do it, you need each other. As a group weve got to get better.Vancouver finally got on the board when Bonino broke Lundqvists shutout bid at 4:20 of the third with his eighth of the season and first in 16 games, but it was far too late to influence an outcome that was decided early.Youre going to go through a season, youre going to have to find a way to dig out of things, said Miller. This is our first opportunity to have to dig out of a hole thats a little deeper than usual. See how we respond here. Youre not going to go 82 (games) without a stretch like this.For us to be a team that is going to do anything worthwhile at the end of the season were going to have to learn how to handle ourselves emotionally and handle the adjustments we need to make and go from here.Id like to see a nice response next game and well see if were ready to dig out or just dig it deeper.Notes: Boninos goal was his first point in seven games. ...
