I read this on cnnsi.com this morning..

Even if it meant parting with Jon Lester and Jacoby Ellsbury in Boston, some see Felix Hernandez as a ace with few peers. I think [the Red Sox] would pursue King Felix, but not Greinke. King Felix is special. He's like Roger Clemens and Pedro Martinez, so he'd be worth the expenditure of players and cash. Greinke, to me, is in a different class. He's having a great season. He had a great season in his Cy Young year, but he's kind of up and down year to year. There are the anxiety issues that you'd have to be concerned about. His GM in KC was Allard Baird, Boston's vice president of player personnel. Not sure that Greinke would be suited for the Boston market. [Ryan Kalish] may be the CF or RF of the future.

I think this is from Cafardo's column. There is no evidence that the Mariners are shopping Hernandez. Even if they were, Lester/Ellsbury would not be enough for them to part with The King.

Thought this was a bumped thread from 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010 and 2011. Weird.

 

Nope.

 

Or even a few days ago, when Cafardo first posted the story
