Colangelo squelches Johnson trade rumors
By Scott Bordow, Tribune
So much for those Randy Johnson trade rumors.
Diamondbacks chairman Jerry Colangelo said Wednesday he wants Johnson to retire as a Diamondback.
“I have no intention of trading Randy Johnson,” Colangelo said. “I certainly hope he has no interest of going anywhere.”
A potential Johnson deal had become water-cooler conversation recently. There was speculation in New York that the Yankees would pursue Johnson and that the Diamondbacks might be tempted to trade the Big Unit and his $33 million contract because of their perceived financial woes.
Johnson has a no-trade clause in his contract and would have to approve any deal. “The thing is, he's not saying that, we're not saying that,” Colangelo said. “Who is saying that? The media and fans. None of that matters.”

They might trade away Finly, Hillenbrand, or Bautista but not the Unit.
