Here's the latest trade and signing buzz from around the league:

Gourriel bidding war will end up in the $55-75 million range

Yulieski Gourriel's workouts have gone really well, and his high-end skills are evident. When it comes to talent, most evaluators place him between Jose Abreu and Yoenis Cespedes, and they expect him to impact a pennant race starting August 1, assuming he signs during the All-Star break.

Gourriel has the ability to play second, third or left field with third base being his best position. He's also special at the plate; he can hit for average and power. On defense, he has an above-average arm and glove. He has poise, composure and competitiveness qualities.

It’s really difficult to get an asset like him. You either have to draft this type of talent in the top 10 or empty your farm system to trade for him. Edwin Encarnacion, Jose Bautista and perhaps Cespedes headline a thin free-agent market this offseason, which only increases Gourriel's present value.

The thin inventory of third basemen makes him even more valuable.
