MLB Quick Pitch says Matt Cain is "on the block"
I don't have a link- just saw this on the show
I know there have been a thousand of these "rumors", but I thought this one was worth bringing to your attention, to help keep a running count. The context was a discussion of players generally "available" or unavailable, and after discussing Sanchez as generally available, Jon Heyman said "there are GMs out there" that have said that Matt Cain may "become" available too.
I suppose the "sources" could be the scurrilous rumors already posted here, but passing it along for whatever it's worth.

I think this is Baggs throwaway line from about a week ago that has gotten out of control.

in a way, it's flattering...
I have a feeling a throwaway line about a mediocre player becoming available wouldn’t have generated nearly so much pub. But because Cain is so good, this “hey, you never know…” kind of rumor just won’t die.

I had MLB Network on mute last night when I was working on some stuff. Jon Heyman was on there and I saw a graphic about Sanchez. I thought they were talking about the possibilities of trading him, not Cain.
Heyman’s an idiot anyway.

Amsinger and Vasgersian are deplorable. I’m happy to have Harold Reynolds back and him pal-ing around with Barry Larkin is just so adorable. The inclusion of John Hart on the crew as the business/management side was a good move on the part of the network.
Trenni Kusnerik is pretty good and Hazel Mae isn’t as annoying as I expected her to be. I dislike that they employ Bob Costas, but you can’t always get what you want.

Dan Plesac is a revelation. He’s awesome.

Which one is Plesac? Is he the guy who does the highlights show by himself?

Agreed. He's been fantastic.
His quality almost balances out the ultra-suck of Vasgersian.

Yeah he’s really good. Sean Casey isn’t too bad. They picked a solid group for the most part.

The thing about Casey is, he’s friendly to everyone. There was a reason why his nickname was the Mayor.

If Matt Cain gets a no-trade clause in his next contract, mlbtraderumors is gonna have to shut down

based on the Jake Peavy situation (he has a NTC), it’ll probably just boost the number of visitors to the site.

So, according to people who do not work for the Giants, Matt Cain may become available.
Awesome. I’ll definitely take that seriously.
