Olney On Penny, Reds, Braves

By Tim Dierkes | May 27, 2009 at 3:01pm CDT

A few rumors from ESPN's Buster Olney (Insider link):

  • Olney says about six teams have talked to the Red Sox about Brad Penny.  Gordon Edes suggested last night that the "Phillies, Brewers, Royals and possibly the Twins look like teams that could be in play for Penny."
  • The Reds are looking for outfield help.  Personally I'd like to see what the Laynce Nix/Jonny Gomes platoon can do over a full season.
  • Olney heard that "Atlanta hasn't gotten fully engaged yet" in their attempt to augment their outfield.
  • Olney talked to execs who like the fit of Jack Wilson in Boston.
