Via T.R. Sullivan:

The Rangers have been told that Zack Greinke is not signing with them, according to industry sources. It appears the Dodgers are going to sign him for a six-year deal. But the Rangers are out.

Now the dominoes should start falling.

Let’s make a trade!

Earlier Thursday morning these baseball “insiders” tweeted these things:

Jon Morosi ‏@jonmorosi

One industry source believes Zack Greinke will be dealt before Ryan Dempster. Dempster to Dodgers possibility remains in limbo.

DKnobler ‏@DKnobler

Dodgers and Rangers now in on James Shields, along with Angels.

Ken Rosenthal ‏@Ken_Rosenthal

Shields isn’t only Rays pitcher that the Angels are considering.

DKnobler ‏@DKnobler

One scout on Shields: “His stuff is still good, but he hasn’t had Shields-like command.”

Mike DiGiovanna ‏@MikeDiGiovanna [Angels beat writer]

So Angels skip Santana Fri, move Haren, Wilson up, leaving rotation opening for Sun … the day Greinke is scheduled to pitch. Interesting.

DKnobler ‏@DKnobler

Rays are saying they’d move any pitcher but Moore/Price, but Shields ($9 million next year) is most likely to go.

Bob Nightengale ‏@BNightengale

The Angels were rebuffed by the Rays in their pursuit of James Shields, offering speedy OF Peter Bourjos, but the Rays want more in return

DKnobler ‏@DKnobler

Dodgers still thought more likely for Dempster or (if he shows he’s healthy) Garza. But they’ve scouted Shields, are interested.
