Sources: Astros' attempt to deal for pitcher rejected By JOSE DE JESUS ORTIZ Copyright 2005 Houston Chronicle According to a high-level baseball official, Seattle Mariners veteran lefthander Jamie Moyer employed his rights under the collective bargaining agreement to block a trade to the Astros. As a policy, Astros general manager Tim Purpura does not comment publicly on any trade discussions he has with other teams. But it was no secret among the scouts at Minute Maid Park that the Astros made a run and were rejected by Moyer. Purpura would only confirm that the Astros were close to a deal for a pitcher who could have helped as a starter and reliever. "I would say we are at a point where we could have had a deal done," said Purpura, who hasn't given up all hope of making a deal before the non-waiver trade deadline Sunday at 3 p.m. Moyer, a pitcher who has succeeded because of his superb command of the strike zone, is 9-3 with a 4.33 ERA over 21 starts. He would have bolstered the Astros' already vaunted rotation while also serving as an option for the bullpen. As a player with more than 10 years in the majors and five in a row with the same team, Moyer had the right to block the trade based on rights that are referred to simply as the 10/5 right. Since reaching the majors in 1986 with the Cubs, Moyer is 201-148 with a 4.16 career ERA. Purpura has been busy working the phones all week, putting his odds of making a trade at 50-50 Friday evening. By late Friday night, he admitted thinking his odds of making a significant trade were at 80 percent. By Saturday afternoon, he dropped his odds of making a significant trade to about 20 percent. "There could still be some minor or lesser situations that could clear," he said. http://www.chron.com/cs/CDA/ssistory.mpl/sports/bb/3289354 -- -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 218.166.134.193
