http://tinyurl.com/k755ofq According to an industry source, the Red Sox are in advanced conversations with free agent Hanley Ramirez, with the possibility that a deal “could come together quickly.” As of this afternoon, the source said, there was not an agreement between the sides, but the potential for a deal is real. At this point, what is not clear is whether talks with Ramirez are as a third base fallback should free agent Pablo Sandoval sign with one of his other suitors (the Giants or Padres), or if the pursuit of Ramirez might be in conjunction with the pursuit of Sandoval, with Ramirez moving to left field and Sandoval at third base. If the Sox did pursue Ramirez, it could be part of yet another domino, with the possibility of trading Yoenis Cespedes increasing. However, the Sox viewed Sandoval as their priority over Ramirez for a number of reasons, including age (Sandoval is 28; Ramirez turns 31 this winter), defense (Sandoval is an above-average defensive third baseman; Ramirez has been viewed as one of the worst defensive shortstops in the big leagues, and struggled in a half-season at third base with the Marlins), durability (Ramirez has averaged 121 games a year over the last five seasons, Sandoval 135) and makeup (Sandoval is viewed as a strong clubhouse presence, Ramirez was a polarizing figure with the Marlins prior to his trade to the Dodgers). https://twitter.com/mlb_nl_al/status/536646960250646528 Reminder,I said Hanley and Boston are agreed on length/money.Still working details. -- Hanley + Sandoval + Lester 甘五摳林? 還有另一說是幾近完成 剩細節需討論... --
