BREAKING: The Melbourne Meteors, just days after trading for star pitcher Andy Stone, reportedly might not re-sign him. Stone is scheduled to hit free agency in a few weeks, and the assumption was that he would be signed to an extension. But reports are saying that Stone is refusing to even come to the table and negotiate, saying that he wants to test free agency. If this is true, the blockbuster deal with Mumbai might have been a colossal mistake.

Stone is just 30 years old. He went 10-3 with a 3.34 ERA last year. Reportedly, he was supposed to be the Meteor's ace heading into their championship run. This news, obtained by the WBA Times from an anonymous source close to Stone's agent, is reportedly throwing the Meteor's front office into a huge spin as the Meteors frantically try to bring Stone to the table.

EDIT: wbatimes.com reporters have been told that Stone was negotiating an extension with the Cobras. What does this mean, and what- if anything- can the Meteors do about it? Stay tuned to Times Online for up-to-the-minute breaking news.

EDIT: According to sources, the league is saying that there's nothing they can do. Reportedly, Melbourne is planning to offer him a huge contract, and trade for cash. Stay tuned to Times Online.
