Rosenthal On Jimenez, Red Sox, Rockies, Beltran

By Zach Links | August 6, 2011 at 5:37pm CDT

In the latest edition of Full Count from Ken Rosenthal, we learn how this year's trade deadline could have turned out drastically different..

  • The Rockies wanted five of Boston's top prospects for Ubaldo Jimenez: Will Middlebrooks, Kyle Weiland, Josh Reddick, Felix Doubront, and Ryan Lavarnway.  The Red Sox would have gotten more than just Jimenez in return as Rosenthal tweets that the Rockies offered Jimenez and outfielder Seth Smith in return for the quintet of prospects.  There were other possible fits in such a deal including Ryan Spilborghs, Chris Iannetta, and Rafael Betancourt.
  • The Rangers had enough prospects to get Carlos Beltran in addition to Koji Uehara and Mike Adams at the deadline.  To do that, they would have needed to take either Robbie Erlin and Joe Wieland out of the Adams deal as the Mets are fond of both.  Rosenthal was told that one of the two pitchers was in the offer for Beltran.
  • The Indians traded their two best pitching prospects to land ace Ubaldo Jimenez but the deal wasn't just for this season.  Cleveland is mindful of the big picture and they have their key pieces locked up for the next few years.  Jimenez, Asdrubal Cabrera, and Shin-Soo Choo are under control for the next two seasons while Justin Masterson and Chris Perez are under control for the next three.  If the Tribe doesn't win in the next few years, they can always flip some of those players for prospects.
