Loads of MLB rumors today

• As expected, the Yankees have been very busy:
• A source mentioned a potential three-way deal between the Yankees, Mariners, and Rockies that would have Matt Holliday landing in New York. Hideki Matsui would go to Seattle, whom would send John Rowland-Smith to Colorado. The Yanks would also have to send Robinson Cano to the Rockies.
• The Yanks are trying to work out a deal with San Diego for Jake Peavy, with Philip Hughes and Austin Jackson being mentioned as part of a potential package.
• New York also appears very interested in Milwaukee's Mike Cameron. One rumor has the Yankees sending Melky Cabrera and Ian Kennedy to the Brewers for the former Gold Glove outfielder.
• The Bronx Bombers have talked to the White Sox about Nick Swisher, perhaps as a backup plan if they cannot sign Mark Teixeira.
• It looks like the Yankees plan on signing Damaso Marte to an extension. They declined his 2009 option.
• New York is willing to re-sign Andy Pettitte to a one-year deal, although Pettitte recently stated he is looking for two. And this is nothing new, but the Yanks want to sign two free agent starters out of CC Sabathia, A.J. Burnett, and Derek Lowe. Lowe is the least likely of the three to sign, in my opinion.
• Wilson Betemit is on the block.
  

• Plenty of news on the Phillies as well:
• According to SI's Jon Heyman, the Phillies has been the most aggressive suitor for Matt Holliday. The question is whether or not they have enough ammo.
• There have been rumblings that Philadelphia will listen to offers for Jimmy Rollins. Still, I do not see him getting moved.
• If the Phils aren't able to re-sign Pat Burrell, expect them to turn their attention to Rocco Baldelli.

• And the Mets:
• The Mets' top target seems to be Brian Fuentes. Fuentes' agent reportedly proposed a four-year, $44 million deal. That might be a little too expensive for GM Omar Minaya.
• Chad Cordero is a backup plan if New York can't sign Fuentes.
• Carlos Delgado asked the Mets for a contract extension for 2010, but was denied.

And now the rest of the league:

• Could the Marlins be interested in Russell Martin? He is quietly being discussed within the organization. Still, he is most likely out of their price range and would command far too much from Florida in return (think Sean West). The Fish have also considered bringing Brad Penny back.
  
• The Cardinals are also pursuing Matt Holliday. They could offer a package built around Colby Rasmus.
• The Dodgers have offered Rafael Furcal a two-year deal worth somewhere in the neighborhood of $25-30 million. Eight other teams have expressed interest in the shortstop, including the division-rival Giants.
• San Francisco seems to be listening to offers for Matt Cain; this doesn't mean he's getting dealt, though. Bengie Molina is a more likely trade candidate.
• Some feel that the Athletics could make a run at Matt Holliday. They certainly have the prospects to do it.
• The Nationals, of all teams, are preparing to make a very considerable offer to Mark Teixeira. Either way, I can't see them out-bidding teams like the Yankees, Red Sox, or Angels.
• The White Sox will listen to offers for Bobby Jenks. It will take a lot to pry him away, though.
• According to Ken Rosenthal, the Braves are offering the Padres Yunel Escobar, either Jo-Jo Reyes or Charlie Morton (most likely Reyes), and a top prospect for Jake Peavy.
• Minnesota has talked to Colorado about Garrett Atkins.
