The fact that the Phillies have a senior adviser advisor sniffing around the Sox prospects seems to indicate they may be ready to move off of their silly Swihart/Betts demands. Maybe the realization that Boston's prospects #5-10 are pretty good as well may get negotiations moving again.
But the Sox total intransigence to date leads me to think even an Owens/Devers/Grade C Prospect type of deal is out of the question unless Philly picks up a good chunk of the contract.
