Jim Duquette of MLB Network Radio on Sirius XM reports that the Cardinals and
Roy Oswalt are close to an agreement.
The specifics of the offer aren't known, but Joe Strauss of the St. Louis
Post-Dispatch reported this week that the Cardinals made an offer to Oswalt
earlier this winter "approaching $5 million." According to Duquette, the Red
Sox, Astros and Rangers remain in the mix. The Astros would be a weird
landing spot considering that the alternatives are all expected to contend,
but the veteran right-hander was originally drafted by the club in 1996 and
spent the first 10 years of his major-league career there. For what it's
worth, Michael Silverman of the Boston Herald hears that Oswalt will not make
a decision this week regarding where he'll sign. Stay tuned.
