Tadahito Iguchi, who refused an assignment to triple A Lehigh Valley in order to become a free agent, may be heading to play full time in Japan. The Chiba Lotte Marines are set to begin talks with Tad on a new contract.

Derek Lowe has reportedly rejected a contract offer from the Mets, that was for 3 yrs/$36 million. MLBTradeRumors.com reports that the Phillies are still contenders to sign Lowe and are the Mets' main competition for his services, along with the Braves.

Phormer Phillie and current White Sox pitcher Gavin Floyd's name has been mentioned in a potential trade with the Orioles. The Orioles would send Brian Roberts to Chicago in the rumored deal.
