Red Sox take aim at Adrian Gonzalez

The Red Sox are not done yet.
The team, set to announce the signings of free-agent right-hander John Lackey
and center fielder Mike Cameron, is working hard to obtain Padres first
baseman Adrian Gonzalez, according to major-league sources.
A deal is not close, and might not happen at all, sources said. Jed Hoyer,
the Padres’ new general manager -- and Red Sox’s former assistant GM --
wants a high price for Gonzalez, whose contract is one of the biggest
bargains in baseball.
"Jed has been asking for a ton," one source said.
Gonzalez, 27, is signed for $4.75 million next season with a $5.5 million
club option for 2011. He hit 40 home runs last season despite playing his
home games at pitcher-friendly Petco Park.
If the Red Sox acquired him, they would shift first baseman Kevin Youkilis to
third. In the meantime, they await the completion of their trade of third
baseman Mike Lowell to the Rangers.
Gonzalez, in fact, might be the final piece the Red Sox envision as they look
to complete their offseason construction, which began with the signing of
free-agent shortstop Marco Scutaro to a two-year, $12 million contract.
The addition of Lackey will give the Red Sox the flexibility to trade
right-hander Clay Buchholz, who likely would be the centerpiece of any
package for Gonzalez. Likewise, the addition of Cameron will give them the
flexibility to trade outfielder Jacoby Ellsbury.
The Padres would be tempted to move Gonzalez if they could get Buchholz and
Ellsbury in the same deal, sources say. However, the Red Sox would be very
reluctant to include both, according to another source.
Minor-league outfielder Ryan Westmoreland is another potential Padres target.
Minor-league pitcher Casey Kelly is believed to be untouchable.
Lackey and Cameron will cost the Red Sox nearly $100 million combined.
The addition of Gonzalez at club-friendly salaries would enable the team to
pass on free-agent third baseman Adrian Beltre, who is seeking a four-year
deal for at least $40 million, sources say.
The Red Sox then could turn their attention to signing right-hander Josh
Beckett to a long-term extension -- and retain the financial flexibility to
pursue other free agents in next year’s deep market.
If the Red Sox fail to acquire either Gonzalez or Beltre, they would be left
with a Casey Kotchman/Victor Martinez platoon at first and Youkilis at third.
