Padres' Gonzalez Could Cost Too Much for Red Sox
by Michael Hurley on Jul 27, 2009 12:27:53 PM
With the clock set to pass midnight just four more times before Major League
Baseball's non-waiver trade deadline, front office workers in every big league
city will be logging late nights and long phone calls looking to make the
acquisition that puts their team over the top.
With a suddenly struggling offense, the Red Sox are no exception.
The prospect of acquiring a heavy-hitting first baseman like Adrian Gonzalez,
however, may be out of the picture.
ESPN.com reports that the Padres' asking price for Gonzalez might be too high.
According to the report:
Even if the
Padres were to receive an acceptable offer for Gonzalez, the second
hurdle would be whether the San Diego ownership would approve the deal and risk
angering the team's fan base even more, after an offseason in which the team
slashed payroll, pursued a possible Jake Peavy trade and cut ties with the face
of the franchise, reliever Trevor Hoffman.
Gonzalez, who has hit 25 homers for the Padres this year and has averaged 30
per year for the last three seasons, is due just $4.75 million next year, with
a $5.5 million club option for 2011.
The Sox, however,
still have their eyes open at other possibilities, with Red
Sox chairman Tom Werner telling the Boston Globe that
GM Theo Epstein is
"burning the midnight oil" trying to work out an "impact" deal before Friday.
“I think we have a pretty good track record of making deals at the deadline
that have some impact, but we’re not going to give away our best prospects,’’
Werner told the Globe.
The Red Sox reportedly had scouts at Pittsburgh's game on Sunday, the
Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.
That report says that relievers John Grabow
and Matt Capps are drawing interest from around the league, while shortstop
Jack Wilson could still be on the Sox' radar.
Meanwhile, the biggest name being thrown around before this year's deadline may
not be moving after all. Toronto GM J.P. Ricciardi told FoxSports.com that the
chances of
Roy Halladay being traded are "very slim."
"We've said that we would listen, but that we would have to be motivated and
'wowed,'" Ricciardi told FoxSports.com. "Right now we haven't been. I've said
all along my gut tells me I won't be. I still stand by that."
Trying to forecast what Epstein and the Red Sox will do may be a meaningless
endeavor by week's end.
His biggest deals with the Sox were ones that very few
people, if any, saw coming. With the clock ticking away, this year will likely
be no different.
"burning the midnight oil"可以翻成焚膏繼晷嗎?XD
