Outfield: Julio Lugo for Byrnes being Discussed
Steve Phillips of ESPN.com believes the Red Sox and D’Backs are discussing a deal that could send Julio Lugo to Arizona in exchange for OF Eric Byrnes.
Byrnes is due to earn $22 million over the next two seasons, while Lugo will earn $18 million during the same time span.
…i’m thinking it, and so are you…so, here you go:
In a report from early October in the New York Post, Joel Sherman wrote, ‘The D’Backs considered Byrnes for Luis Castillo, but determined they just don’t like Castillo at all.’
…i’m sure Mets fans understand the sentiment…
Speaking of outfielders…
The deal between the Rockies and Nationals involving Wily Taraves is falling apart, for more go to MLB Trade Rumors.
The agent for Bobby Abreu met with the Rays, who met earlier in the week with Milton Bradley, reports MLB.com.
The Chicago Sun Times and the Chicago Tribune both believe Bradley is a top target of the Cubs.
