Odds & Ends: Red Sox, Marlins, Berry, Carroll, Pujols

By Ben Nicholson-Smith | July 14, 2010 at 7:59pm CDT

Links for Wednesday, on an eerily quiet day for baseball fans…

  • Red Sox GM Theo Epstein told Scott Lauber of the Boston Herald that there aren't many All-Star caliber players available on the trade market right now.
  • It's "very likely" that the Marlins make moves between now and July 31st, according to MLB.com's Joe Frisaro (Twitter link).
  • The Padres claimed 25-year-old outfielder Quintin Berry from the Phillies, according to Dan Hayes of the North County Times (via Twitter). Berry has a .606 OPS at AA so far in 2010.
  • The Dodgers have fielded multiple calls on Jamey Carroll's availability, as Tim Dierkes noted on Twitter earlier today.
  • Like everyone else in the baseball world, Albert Pujols' agent expects the Cardinals to pick up the slugger's $16MM option for 2011. Dan Lozano told Ken Rosenthal of FOX Sports that Pujols is open to talking about an extension in the offseason. Cards GM John Mozeliak confirmed on Twitter that the team won't initiate discussions before then.
  • Some of Derrek Lee's friends tell Jon Paul Morosi and Ken Rosenthal of FOX Sports that they believe the first baseman would waive his no-trade clause for the right deal. The Angels would prefer to pursue someone who isn't under contract next year, so they could be a fit for Lee.
  • Dave Cameron of FanGraphs ranks Justin Verlander 35th among the MLB players with the most trade value.

    I’d like to see Carroll stay in LA, with his versatility, veteran presense and what not

      haha hank hill!

      I agree with you, his presence has been surprisingly invaluable.

    Overbay > D. Lee, and I wouldn’t think that Overbay would cost much more. D. Lee may be willing to waive his no trade clause, but it remains to be seen if there is anyone wanting his services.

    If Florida makes Hanley available, who becomes the front runner to get him?

      My guess would be any team that needs a SS…..

      SD would be an interesting destination. They have a need and have good young pitching.

        Except they (SD) are still very high on Everth Cabrera (despite) his lack of production and injuries that have obviously hindered his play thus far. I do not believe the Padres will make a big splash at SS. Cabbie is the future for the Padres.

        Not that I would not be thrilled to see Hanley but I don’t think the Padres want to abort the plan that has them in 1st place despite much run production. The Padres are building their team around pitching and defense. However, if they are going to give up their top-tier pitching prospects it would have to be a player of Hanley’s caliber, give or take. LOL

        Interesting yes, likely… probably not.

      I think Boston would like to have him back.

        First of all, John Milton does rock. Second of all, Marco Scutaro would be out of a job, then. He’s getting paid too much to sit on Boston’s bench. Where do you think he goes?

          Supersub… when it comes to obtaining elite talent, Marco Scutaro wouldn’t be a roadblock if it meant getting the best shortstop in baseball back.

        • mrsjohnmiltonrocks

          The A’s wanted him when he was a free agent, start there.

          I wonder if the Red Sox ever checked in with Colorado about grabbing an outfielder. They have an assembly that makes them; they regularly sit good talent.

          Well let’s be honest, if the Sox could acquire Hanley they wouldn’t care what they do with Scutaro because they will have Hanley at that point. That would be a problem to deal with after.

      Yankees get him then Jeter goes Boston as their SS. Just kidding.

      Rays because they have so many prospects they can trade.

    Idk exactly, but it would have to be a hell of an offer.

    San Diego wouldn’t take on Hanley’s contract. They’ve had so many money problems- look at what a cheap deal they signed A-Gonz to and look what happened to their big extensions like Peavy-gone with the wind. There’s no way they pay Hanley Ramirez $61 million over 4 1/2 seasons. They just won’t do it.

    Is anyone else experiencing the same problem? I can see the article below this one, but then it’s just a white screen.

    I see everyones point on the Red Sox going after Hanley (if made available) but I really think that the Cardinals could become a buyer if that possibility opens up. They need another batter that hits for power, plus they need someone that hits for average…Ryan just isnt cutting it. Not to mention last week, the Cards front office mentioned that they had payroll flexibility to take on a larger contract.

    Please trade Lee to the Angels… they aren’t going to win the AL west anyway.. Lee to Anaheim for a minor league player who will never make it to “the Show” and maybe a PTBNL or cash Throw in Ramirez and make it a 3 way trade.. Ramirez to Seattle for a minor league player… Cubs can easily afford to play all his remaining contract or both as long as they are both gone so Fontenot can take his rightful spot at 3rd and Lee and Ramirez will never hit 3 and 4 again
