Bostob Globe/Massarotti: Sox were in on Hardy

Bostob Globe/Massarotti: Sox were in on Hardy Stoking some fires in the ol’ hot stove: Milwaukee wanted either starter Clay Buchholz or reliever Daniel Bard for Hardy. The Sox were not willing to offer either pitcher. Milwaukee was not interested in righthander Michael Bowden, whom the Sox would have been willing to part with, and the Sox did not have a center field prospect who could match Gomez’s skill set. I’d have done Bard for Hardy myself - of course I don’t think that would have been enough to get it done, and one wonders what else Doug Melvin might have wanted.

What are the Red Sox planning at shortstop?

All of which makes me think that they'll go short term (Gonzalez, Vizquel, etc.) rather than make a multi-year commitment to someone like Scutaro. Of course, if reports about the Red Sox's interest in J.J. Hardy are accurate they were certainly willing to make a multi-year commitment to him at shortstop. Boston reportedly offered Michael Bowden to Milwaukee in exchange for Hardy, but balked when the ...
