Jon Lester said Friday night that he would not be surprised if the Red Sox
elect to trade him before Thursday's deadline, but said he still would be
open to re-signing with Boston as a free agent.
"Yeah, why not?'' Lester said when the trade-then-sign scenario was proposed
to him after Friday's loss to the Rays. "I mean, this is what I know, this is
what I love. Like I've said many times, this is where I want to be. If they
trade me, I completely understand.
"Like I said, no hard feelings. I know what they have to do for their
organization. If that involves me, so be it. If it doesn't, I'll keep running
out there every five days, pitching, and like I said, hopefully November
we'll get something done.''
Lester表示:如果红袜在交易截止日前交易他并不会感到意外，
但是他季后还是会给跟红袜签约的机会
