Roch is such a good follow on twitter.  Some tidbits from Buck:

1 Will take 1 player in the Rule V

2 Getting lots of interest in their starters.  "Not going to give them away"

3. No need to monitor Bundy's innings any more than Gausman

4.  Wants a DH that can play other positions like Mancini can play first

5.  Prefers Jones not leadoff

6.  HSK to see more lefties

7.  Confirmed interest in Castillo, Hundley, Bourn, Saunders

8.  Wieters, Trumbo, and Alvarez are all possible to return (kinda contradicts 4)

9.  Wants to play his bench more.

Smart of him to say this from a negotiating standpoint, but I gotta imagine Jimenez (13.5 mil) and Gallardo (11 mil) have to be available for anyone who is willing to take on the salary.  I imagine we'd take a bag of baseballs back to move one of them. 

Miley may actually have some value at 9 mil especially when Andrew Casher just got paid 10 mil by the Rangers.  But I think they like having a lefty in the rotation. 

Jimenez or Gallardo are the guys I could see getting moved.  Likely to offset the contract of an outfielder coming back to us.
