The Reds have gotten trade calls on utilityman Spencer Steer, reports Bob Nightengale of USA Today. Cincinnati has fallen nine games under .500 after a strong start and are eight games back in the Wild Card picture. That doesn’t necessarily mean Steer will be on the move. He’s under arbitration control for two seasons beyond this one, so there’s less urgency for the Reds to flip him than there’d be on impending free agents like Brady Singer, Tyler Stephenson or Nathaniel Lowe. The front office should be open to conversations on Steer, though, as he’s more of a solid role player than the…

Sen. Lindsey Graham’s unexpected death on Saturday night fueled baseless speculation on social media that his passing was the result of a criminal action. Among the onslaught were posts that falsely accused foreign powers, including Russia, Iran, Ukraine and Israel, of assassinating the South Carolina Republican. Others touched on broader conspiracy theories saying his travel schedule made it impossible for him to have died in Washington, or alleged that the FBI’s assistance of local authorities is proof of foul play. But preliminary findings by a medical examiner do not indicate anything of the sort. Here’s a closer look at the…

Luis Arraez is among the likeliest players to be traded before the August 3 deadline. He’s an impending free agent on a bad Giants team who is playing well enough to be one of the top position players available. Arraez said last week that he’d be willing to discuss a new deal to remain in San Francisco. However, there’s no indication the team has shown the same desire. The front office seems likelier to flip him to a contender for prospects. Arraez, who has dramatically outperformed most expectations in a move back to second base, made clear he’s not interested…
