There have been some moves in the past couple of days in MLB. Last night the Baltimore Orioles made the Dexter Fowler 3-year 35-million dollar deal official last night. Fowler rejected a qualifying arbitration offer from the Cubs that was worth 15.1 million dollars, but according to Fowler's agent he was looking for a long term deal worth at least 16.5 million a year. But I'm glad that the Cubs didn't offer him a big deal with the signings of Jason Hayward and with Jorge Soler and Alberto Almora expected to come up sometime during spring call-ups. According to ESPN the Chicago Cubs have traded OF-Chris Coghlan to the Oakland Athletics for RHP-Arron Brooks. Brooks recently pitched for the the Royals from 2014-2015 but was released and signed by the Athletics late July. Baltimore is a very active team right now in the free-agent market as they picked up SS-Paul Janish, Dexter Fowler and then last night reached a deal with 29-year old Yovani Gallardo to a 2-year deal. According to Gallardo's agent the contract is worth 2-years 22-million dollars. So that add's up to about 11 million a year. But Gallardo is on a no trade clause and can not opt out. So he is locked in as a Baltimore Oriole for 2 years.

Blackhawks on a roll!!!
If you are a big hockey fan or just a regular hockey fan you probably herd about the Blackhawks 12-game winning streak. But that winning streak was snapped by the team that they will be facing tonight. Patrick Sharp and the Dallas Stars at the United Center for the 2nd time in two weeks. Now the Blackhawks streak was broken in Dallas about 3 weeks ago but the Hawks came back roaring to a 5-1 win in Chicago and they are hoping for the same tonight. Now the only injury for the Blackhawks is forward Marcus Kruger. Now Kruger dislocated his wrist about 2 months ago and had surgery December 18th so he should be returning in about a month. Injury report for the Dallas Stars.
Stars injuries: Blackhawks:
Ales Hemsky Marcus Kruger
Antoine Roussel
Travis Moen
Jordie Benn
Devin Shore
Jason Spezza

Are the Cubs still not done in free-agency
Don't think that the Cubs are done with free-agency because they're still active with Dexter Fowler and top infielders still on the market. Even though the Cubs have made a lot of big moves and have a high roster for every position, they are still looking for players that will be willing to play for Joe Maddon and will be willing to be apart of the Cubs championship team. The Cubs have only lost Starlin Castro in a trade with Yankees, other than that everyone else will be on the Cubs roster
Bulls in a slump
