Is Granderson This Year’s Roberts, Peavy?
I’m guessing yes:
A Cubs offer could be built around 19-year-old shortstop Starlin Castro, who is emerging as one of the top prospects in the minors. Third baseman Josh Vitters, 19-year-old Korean shortstop Hak-Ju Lee and minor league pitching from a group including Andrew Cashner, Jay Jackson and Chris Carpenter also could be part of deal.
A Cubs source suggests a Granderson offer also could include low-priced veterans whom the Tigers either could keep or move elsewhere. Those players include Jake Fox, Micah Hoffpauir, Tom Gorzelanny, Aaron Heilman, Mike Fontenot and Aaron Miles.
Don’t look for a quick resolution to the Granderson talks. Dombrowski could spend the next few weeks building the market and strike a deal at the winter meetings Dec. 7-10.
Sounds like a story that could have been written about Jake Peavy and Brian Roberts the last two years.
