Sounds like Gallo/Mendez are in the deal and Rangers are trying to get Lucroy/Jeffress.

He's a FA after 2017 and not being the starter at C would hurt his value

Rosenthal now reporting the same thing. Lucroy asked Indians about being the starting catcher and Indians couldn't guarantee that which nixed the trade

Indians would not guarantee Lucroy the starting catching job in 2017 and would not add incentives to his option which killed the deal

The Brewer Nation ‏@BrewerNation No deal with Cleveland, per Stearns. "We move on." No way to rework deal.

The Brewer Nation ‏@BrewerNation  36s36 seconds ago "We'll regroup and pick up where we left off." - Stearns. Lucroy presented with choice shortly after game yesterday. Decision this morning.

Stearns just said talks with Cleveland are done and they have moved on regarding Lucroy.

  He has every right to veto the trade. He seems like a huge hypocrite now though.

Indians trade 2 of their best 5 prospects to get Miller but still have a .180 AVG C now.   lol 

Guessing he wanted an extension or his team option voided and the Indians said no 

Lucroy has vetoed the trade. 

4th piece is RP Shawn Armstrong.    25 years old, 14.5 K/9 in AAA last year but has serious control issues.    2.39 ERA in 252.2 IP, 185 H, 7 HR's, 133 BB, 341 K's

https://twitter.com/JonHeyman/status/759740411753689088   So it's Sheffield, Frazier, Feyereisen, Heller for Miller.   Feyerisen, and Heller are two power RP. Both with 10.0 K/9+ in the minors. 

4 players heading to NY. 

So, a RP lands you 2 top 5 prospects but yet a top 3 catcher doesn't? 

  Yankees expected to get Indians prospects Frazier and Sheffield and others in the trade for Andrew Miller.
