Rangers Want Buchholz, Sox Don’t Want to Deal Him

If the Red Sox want to get a good catcher from Texas they are going to have to give up a good player but apparently Clay Buchholz is off limits. From MLB Rangers.com:

The Red Sox have made it clear that they aren’t interested in trading Clay Buchholz under any circumstances. The Rangers still have interest in other Red Sox pitching — including Justin Masterson and Michael Bowden — but the two sides haven’t been able to match up on a deal that would send either Taylor Teagarden or Jarrod Saltalamacchia to Boston.

I for one would rather keep Masterson over Buchholz but Red Sox officials still believe that Buchholz has more upside.
