Rumors

• Boston Red Sox left-hander Jon Lester reportedly turned down a $70 million contract extension, according to Fox Sports' Ken Rosenthal. The deal, which Rosenthal writes was worth between $70 and $80 million over four years, was relatively low for a pitcher of Lester's caliber, considering the left-hander posted an ERA of 3.75 or lower in five of the past six seasons. The two sides will resume contract talks this offseason.

Signings

• The St. Louis Cardinals agreed to extend general manager John Mozeliak's contract through 2018, the team announced.

Trades

• The Seattle Mariners traded right-hander Hector Noesi to the Texas Rangers for a PTBN, according to Rangers Executive Vice President of Communications John Blake.

• Giancarlo Stanton, Brian McCann and Ben Zobrist all had multi-homer games this weekend, while Chase Utley extended his multi-hit streak to four games.
• Oakland A's starter Sonny Gray pitched seven innings of one-run ball on Saturday, keeping his ERA under one and improving to 2-0 on the season. Left-hander Scott Kazmir followed up Gray's performance with a gem of his own, surrendering just two hits over six scoreless innings on Sunday.
• Milwaukee Brewers starter Kyle Lohse pitched 8.2 dominant innings on Sunday, allowing only one run on four hits as he came one out shy of a complete game. The Brewers won the game, becoming the first team to reach 10 victories on the season.
