D'Backs Rumors: Haren, Kuroda, Carlos Gonzalez

By Tim Dierkes [December 4, 2007 at 9:12pm CST]

MLB.com's Steve Gilbert has some trade rumors to digest this evening concerning the D'Backs.

Arizona had discussions with the A's about Dan Haren today. Many names were thrown about. Conor Jackson was not involved. The A's asked about Max Scherzer and were told he's not available. We learned earlier that Carlos Gonzalez's name came up.

By the way, the D'Backs aren't interested in Joe Blanton.

Arizona is still around 3/30 on Hiroki Kuroda.

The Rangers inquired about Carlos Gonzalez but wouldn't consider parting with Eric Hurley for him.

The Nats are indeed interested in Miguel Montero, as reported previously.

Don't know if you heard but D-Train and Miguel Cabrera have been swapped to the Tigers for Cameron Maybin and Andrew Miller as well as 4 others, courtesy of Peter Gammons, and pending a physical.

^ And that has what to do with the Dbacks?

"Don't know if you heard but D-Train and Miguel Cabrera have been swapped to the Tigers for Cameron Maybin and Andrew Miller as well as 4 others, courtesy of Peter Gammons, and pending a physical."

I'm guessing thats a joke.

And I'm not surprised the Athletics aren't interested in Conor Jackson. They have an almost identical player who's 3 years younger in Daric Barton. But unless the Diamondbacks give up Upton, Drew or Young, then they may not have the pieces to make a Haren deal. What would they have to give up? Would Carlos Gonzalez, Alberto Callaspo, Mark Reynolds, and Dana Eveland be enough? I wouldn't think so since none of those guys really have star potential with the exception of Gonzalez.

After trading Quentin to get a different Chris Carter back for our farm system, we don't really have a viable OF candidate if we traded Upton or Young.

I don't see us matching up well with Oakland. Our pitching prospects are mediocre at best, most back of the rotation.

My guess is the A's wait out the Santana saga and then the demand for Haren will just be off the charts and well beyond the DBacks abilities.

mark reynolds not a star candidate ? i thought he had a lot of potential . maybe not mike schmidt material but perhaps a future all star .

The D-backs are not going to trade Mark Reynolds.

With Tracy not looking to be available to start next year, Mark Reynolds is pretty untouchable right now.
