data-mm-id=”_je5btgjnv”>Major League Baseball's hot stove is still simmering. Here are all the latest MLB rumors, including a few big-name guys who could be traded. Indians want final Francisco Lindor trade proposalsKen Rosenthal is reporting the Cleveland Indians want to bring the Francisco Lindor trade saga to a quick end. The Indians have asked for every team's best and final offer, and they will "make an assessment over the weekend." The Reds, Dodgers and Padres are all known to be in pursuit of the All-Star shortstop. The Indians are likely just assessing if they'll get enough to move Lindor this winter. If they don't like the offers presented, then can then just move forward planning to have him around in 2020. They clearly want to get this sorted out before the new year so they can make corresponding moves. Lindor is a 26-year-old four-time All-Star, two-time Gold Glove winner and has won the Silver Slugger twice. He finished 2019 slashing .284/.335/.518 with 32 home runs and 74 RBIs. He's under team control through 2021. Nolan Arenado trade talks heat upLindor isn't the only franchise cornerstone potentially on the move this winter. The Rockies are seriously considering trading away Nolan Arenado. Less than a year after signing Arenado to a seven-year, $260 million extension, Colorado is looking to move it's best player. The Texas Rangers are reportedly going all-in to land Arenado, attempting to make up for missing out on Anthony Rendon. The Braves, Nationals, Cardinals and Dodgers are all interested as well. It would obviously take a lot to land the 28-year-old five-time All-Star and seven-time Gold Glove winner, but the Rockies are clearly listening. Arenado finished 2019 slashing .315/.379/.583 with 41 home runs and 118 RBIs. His fWAR of 5.9 was a career-high and he won his third consecutive National League Platinum Glove Award as the best defender in the league. Mike Clevinger is a popular trade targetThe Indians appear to be open for business across the board as a key starting pitcher could be traded next. Robert Murray of The Athletic reports the Dodgers and Padres are among the teams inquiring about big right-hander Mike Clevinger.While the price for Clevinger currently remains astronomical, the Indians are clearly willing to discuss big moves. The Padres and Dodgers are both in need to starting pitching help and have loaded farm systems. Clevinger finished the 2019 season with a 13-4 record, a 2.71 ERA, a 1.06 WHIP and 169 strikeouts in 126 innings. That followed a 2018 campaign where he went 13-8 with a 3.02 ERA, a 1.16 WHIP and 207 strikeouts in 200 innings. The 28-year-old has developed into a legitimate front-end of the rotation piece and is under team control through the 2022 season. Josh Donaldson decision coming soonJosh Donaldson is reportedly close to making a decision, with the Twins and Nationals believed to have made him four-year offers. The Braves and Dodgers are also reportedly in the mix, but it appears the Rangers have bowed out. If he goes to the Twins, the club is expected to move Miguel Sano from third to first base.Donaldson, is the reigning National League Comeback Player of the year, a three-time All-Star and the 2015 AL MVP. At 34, this could be his final big contract, so expect that to factor into his decision. In 2019, Donaldson was great for the Braves, slashing .259/.379/.521 with 37 home runs and 94 RBIs. He's about to cash in big-time on that performance. Mets getting offers on Yoenis CespedesThe New York Mets are reportedly getting offers on Yoenis Cespedes after the franchise reworked his contract to guarantee him less than $10 million in 2020. After the 34-year-old missed the entire 2019 season, he's not as sought-after as he once was, but may still have some value. Cespedes missed most of 2018 and 2017 due to injury as well, so there are serious questions as to whether or not he can even play a full season. The potential return on a trade for him will be fascinating.

Liverpool’s 2022 Carabao Cup final hero Caoimhin Kelleher will be more than happy to stay out of the limelight at Wembley.
The Republic of Ireland international scored what turned out to be the winning spot-kick after a goalless final against Sunday’s opponents Chelsea in an epic shoot-out which finished 11-10 when Kelleher’s opposite number Kepa Arrizabalaga blazed over, the only failure from either side.
It was fitting for the Irishman, who has been Liverpool’s League Cup goalkeeper for the last few seasons, but he would prefer a quieter afternoon this time around.
Man like Kelleher

Kalidou Koulibaly is the best centre-back in the world and is worth €150million, according to Napoli head coach Carlo Ancelotti.
The 27-year-old has been at the Stadio San Paolo since signing from Genk in 2014, developing a reputation as one of Serie A s top defenders.
Senegal international Koulibaly has been linked with a move to Manchester United but Ancelotti warned off potential suitors.
The best centre-back in the world? I would say so, he told Tuttosport. And he can still improve. He is worth €150m and he is not available for transfer.

In this tutorial, I will show you how to bet on Odd/Even goals in football. What does odd/even mean in betting? How do you place an odd/even football bet? These are just a few topics discussed in this article.
What is an odd/even bet?
An odd/even bet is a wager placed by punters who predict the total number of goals during regular playtime using an odd or even selection.
Odd and even numbers can be described as follows:
Odds are numbers that divided by 2 will return a fractional number (2,5 or 3,25 etc)
Evens are numbers that after being divided by 2 will result in another whole number (2; 4; 6 etc)
Since in football betting can only be whole numbers, an odd/even bet can also be seen as flipping a coin, which is the basis of many
Example of odd/even fo…
It wasn t so long ago that voicing the idea of Juventus challenging for the Scudetto this season would have seen you laughed out of the room.
Yet, remarkably, they could potentially end the weekend just four points off the summit, and a victory over defending champions Inter would be a decent barometer of just how emphatic their late push is going to be.
Serie A s standout match this week is undoubtedly the Derby d Italia between Juve and Inter in Turin, with Italy s top flight essentially establishing a pretty firm top four ahead of the international break.
But Massimiliano Allegri s Juve surely won t be content with just settling for fourth spot, and a win on Sunday will show they mean business.
A bedrock for improvement
Even if Juve do end up w…
