Sammy is also a 10/5 player so he can veto any trade. Therefore, your trade options are limited to teams that HE would choose to play for. I really doubt he'd go anywhere that wouldn't have a damn good shot at a world series title. The AL teams that would have a shot are the Angels, A's, Red Sox, and Yankees. The Angels might be able to afford him, but they have Gurerro in RF. Maybe Sammy could DH for them but their payroll is already above 100M. Beane would never take on Sammy's contract. The Yanks could use him and they could afford it but they can't offer anything in return. That leaves the Red Sox. He could make a huge impact there, but again could they afford that extra money? Also what could you get in return that could help your team right now?
