Buzz: The Relief Pitcher’s Market
According to Dan Graziano of the Star-Ledger, the Yankees, Tigers, Rangers and Rays have all contacted the Mets about acquiring LHP Scott Schoeneweis.
Multiple reports continue to suggest that the A’s are open to trading RHP Huston Street, the Rockies will still consider 
offers for LHP Brian Fuentes, and the M’s may be soliciting requests for RHP J.J. Putz.
In the Chicago Sun-Times, Joe Crowley writes that the White Sox have targeted Street, “But one-on-one talks with the A’s apparently broke down over a lack of depth in the Sox’ farm system.”
Crowley adds, “According to a source outside the organization, Williams was talking to a handful of teams Wednesday afternoon in hopes of acquiring a back-end reliever in a three-way deal.”
…so, the market is so clogged, it may take a third team to simply return a ‘back-end’ reliever…
…jeez, it’s going to be one of those days, isn’t it…
Other relievers who are reportedly available include Braves LHP Will Ohman, M’s LHP Arthur Rhodes, Cubs LHP Scott Eyre, Royals LHP Ron Mahay, Pirates LHP John Grabow, Giants LHP, Jack Taschner and Jays RHP Scott Downs and Brian Tallet.
