Agree. Maybe if Buehrle agrees to sign a 4/5 year extension, Theo might be reluctant to give up Ellsbury... but youre most likely talking a 2 month rental here. Id rather them give up Ellsbury for a young top player with guaranteed long term control than a guy they wouldnt have a good chance of resigning the next offseason. A la Hanley for Beckett
Its coming from mlbtraderumors.com, but that came from Jayson Stark of ESPN. It wasnt just a fan writing in a trade rumor for fun. I did it last year, Rudy Seanez for Ryan Klesko
