Upton still drawing interest

Though no deal appears imminent, the Diamondbacks continue to shop outfielder Justin Upton, according to FOXSports.com. Arizona has reportedly talked to San Diego about a deal involving Upton for third baseman Chase Headley, but those talks have stalled. The Diamondbacks are also engaged with the Rangers and the Mariners, and both of those teams are considering dealing for Jason Kubel as well. Texas is hesitant to part with Elvis Andrus or Jurickson Profar, and prefer to build a package around third baseman Mike Olt. The Rangers also would be willing to part with a top pitching prospect and another piece for Upton.
