Supposedly the DBacks and Dodgers had a deal for RJ in place. RJ for Mota and Werth plus pitching prospects Chad Billingsley (A ball) and Chuck Tiffany (A ball). They also had a variation that would have sent Lo Duca to AZ also. In the end, RJ wouldn't lift his no trade clause.

This would have been a pretty good deal for AZ. Lo Duca may be playing way over his head but a catcher who can it is a great thing to have. Billingsley is lighting it up in the minors.

If RJ only wants to go to the Yanks, he'll remain a DBack.

The DBacks are also talking to the Dodgers about Finley. Fins said he'll only go if he gets to remain a CF and I'm not sure is psycho boy Bradley would be happy about that.
