Pirates/Padres update
Despite what ESPN had to say this afternoon, both the San Diego Union-Tribune and the Post Gazette are reporting that if a trade goes down between the Pirates and Padres, it probably won't be a big one. From the UT:
The Padres and Pirates have done a lot of talking to one another this offseason. And there is mutual interest on some fronts, which I wrote about this morning. But as this afternoon, things don't appear quite as hot as today's ESPN report may have led some to believe. The big point the Padres are making is that they aren't going to trade Double-A third baseman Chase Headley Not to Pittsburgh. Not to anybody, unless something really kooky happens.If the Padres aren't trading Headley, that pretty much compliments the PG report that we're not talking to them about Bay.
