Royals Interested In Shields, Lester - 美國職棒

http://t.co/itVKtbBe

A Major League source confirmed to WEEI's Rob Bradford that the two teams
have indeed discusseda trade that would center around Lester and Myers.
According to Bradford, the talks also included the possibility of Boston
sending outfield help to Kansas City with some pitching heading back to the
Red Sox. He echoes that nothing is close.

這筆交易真的有在談，不過八字還沒一撇。

The Red Sox haven't had discussions with Lester about a possible extension,
Rob Bradford of WEEI.com reports. The left-hander has one guaranteed year
remaining on his contract with Boston. He'll earn $11.675MM in 2013 and his
contract includes a $13MM option for 2014. Lester has said in the past that
he'd be open to discussing an extension if the Red Sox are interested.

紅襪到目前為止都還沒跟Lester談續約。

Rival teams say the Red Sox are open to dealing Andrew Bailey, ESPN.com’s
Buster Olney reports (on Twitter). However, the reliever’s trade value
remains low, so it doesn’t appear likely that the Red Sox will move him.
Olney reported last month that the Blue Jays considered acquiring Bailey for
manager John Farrell.

某隊表示紅襪願意賣出Bailey，不過Olney認為目前的Bailey交易價值不高，現在不太有可
能換到好貨

關於Myers交易，

支持點： 1. 天花板在2~3號的投手魚(Matt Barnes, Allen Webster, Rubby De La Rosa
, Henry Owens，至少有這些)

而頂尖巨砲只有Bogaerts(或再加上Brentz)

2. BA對Myers評價很高，加入農場的這組人馬潛力無限

3. 自由市場上有替代品

反對點： 1. Lester在2012年爆炸，但前面都不錯，看好回穩(而且Lester不老)

2. 除了一些洞，紅襪的打線有Jacoby Ellsbury, Dustin Pedroia, David
Ortiz, Will Middlebrooks等等，攻擊力沒那麼糟

3. 過去選投手FA的眼光...，選到一堆不怎麼樣的投手

(Lackey, Aaron Cook, Brad Penny, John Smoltz, Bartolo Colon, Matt Clement)

4. Myers' still just a prospect

Remember Andy Marte?

5. 滿場紀錄會中斷吧xd
