Jon Paul Morosi of FOXSports had a few tweets today.  Here’s the skinny:

• Morosi says the Texas Rangers are more focused on adding a starting pitcher than anything else. They’ve been mentioned as a destination for Roy Oswalt and Cliff Lee, but they are stuck in bankruptcy limbo.
• The New York Mets aren’t serious players for Oswalt.
• The Chicago Cubs are only “halfway” to selling mode.
• The Boston Red Sox discussed the Cubs’ Mike Fontenot before they made a trade with the Oakland Athletics for INF/OF Eric Patterson over the weekend.
• The Los Angeles Dodgers have benched Matt Kemp for the third day in a row. They have not requested optional waivers on Kemp recently, so a demotion to the Minors is unlikely.
