Update – David DeJesus Rumors: Reds, Red Sox and Braves interested
By6/28 23:26: “I don’t call up (other teams) and say, `We want to move this guy, this guy and this guy,’” Royals GM Dayton Moore said. “But clubs call and ask, `Is this player available?’ And you listen. Everybody is potentially available. That’s just the way the game is. You have to listen.
Moore’s price for DeJesus is two top prospects since DeJesus is projected to be a Type-A free agent. Type-A free agents, if offered arbitration, generally get two draft picks before the end of the second round as compensation if they sign elsewhere.

6/28 18:33: John Fay of the Cincinnati Enquirer says the Reds are not talking to Kansas City about DeJesus (via a Reds Insider).
Fay adds the Reds do not have a need for an outfielder.
6/28 13:56: Jim Bowden of FOXSports says that the Cincinnati Reds, Boston Red Sox, Atlanta Braves are having discussions with the Kansas City Royals for outfielder David DeJesus.
The Royals have previously let it be known that DeJesus is available, but because he comes relatively cheap, the Royals will want a Major League ready player in exchange for DeJesus. DeJesus is being paid $4.7 million this season and there’s a $6 million club option for 2011.
