Jon Heyman says the Ms are asking for quite a bit for Washburn - two of one NL team's top prospects, for example. Meanwhile, Buster Olney talked to one exec who speculated that Washburn might make sense for
the Mets.
9:42am: I spoke too soon - the Rockies are indeed interested in
Washburn. Tim Redding and Josh Fogg are a couple other names on the
radar. Ken Rosenthal characterizes the Fogg interest as legit, but feels that the Ms
are just trying to stir Colorado's interest in Washburn.
9:29am: According to Ken Davidoff of Newsday, the Yankees' trade talks for Jarrod Washburn are dead. The Yanks will turn to Ian Kennedy, Phil Hughes, and maybe Freddy Garcia. They can also rekindle the Washburn talks in August if they think he will clear waivers (most do).I am surprised other teams aren't looking
more seriously at Washburn given the weak market for starting pitching.
The Rockies, White Sox, and Mets would all make sense.

Rockies could use him, but not really pay for him. O' Dowd is also going after another guy, Josh Fogg, that he had last year. What is that???
lol, I would like to see the Mariners trade there valueable pieces for some productive team players...what I mean by team players is they do there role..ect. I would rather have 25 above average players winning 80 game a year than 5 stars, 2 former stars and the rest below average winning 60-70 games...
