Javelina Still Shopping Blanks

A source within the organization has confirmed the Julian Javelina are determined to trade 1B/OF Kyle Blanks this off-season. It is believed the team is not terribly concerned with getting much in return, as GM Jamie Hoyle is more focused on simply clearing a contract spot than he is getting a great deal of value back. Those close to the situation say the team is open to a draft pick in almost any round if that is what is required to get a deal done. The team hopes interest in Blanks will heat up once the Winter Meetings begin.
