At the same time, the Rangers are reportedly checking on a Vegas sniper, which is the sort of quiet front-office reconnaissance that usually turns into loud summer speculation. Both clubs are doing what contenders do when they think one move can change the mood in the room. The next swing could tell you a lot about how New Jersey and New York see the market.
