Beckett Texas Ranger? Not yet
Nov 21 - Contrary to numerous reports, the Rangers aren't the leading contender to land Marlins starter Josh Beckett in a package deal with 3B Mike Lowell, ESPN.com's Jayson Stark reports. According to baseball officials who have been in contact with Florida, the Marlins have two other potential deals -- with Boston and an unnamed "mystery" team, possibly the Dodgers -- that team officials find more appealing than Texas' offer of 3B Hank Blalock and one of the Rangers' two top pitching prospects, either Thomas Diamond or John Danks.
The Red Sox, according to sources, have offered Florida highly coveted SS prospect Hanley Ramirez, who would become the immediate starter in Miami, plus a choice of two Grade A pitching prospects -- LHP Jon Lester or RHP Anibel Sanchez.
