Dude's on the move.
In the current issue of ESPN The Magazine, Buster Olney is counting down the top stories of the annual Hot Stove League, which has an ETA of roughly nine seconds after the World Series ends.

GMs expect the trade market to be robust, and you'll hear some surprising names floated—Prince Fielder, Jeff Francoeur and Jake Peavy among them—as teams search for affordable alternatives in baseball's bear market."
This could get interesting.
