Sources tell us that very few players on the Red Sox are untouchable, up to and including Manny Ramirez. About the only flat "no" teams hear are on Hanley Ramirez and Dustin Pedroia.

It's good to see he's pulling a flat no on what I'm hoping is to be half of the middle four on the defensive front in 2007 (Varitek, Pedroia, Renteria, and Ramirez), but I am on the Anibal Sanchez bandwagon and hope he doesn't go except for a really nice deal, someone that will help the Sox significantly right now. Maybe part of a deal for a guy that makes every game an 8 inning game (and when Foulke is healthy, a 7 inning game) or an actual starting pitchers (I've only heard myths on what those are).
