Dallas Morning News: Texas Rangers may find CF hard to bag (RR)

The Rangers have significant interest in Torii Hunter but are concerned about where the market might drive the length and financial terms of a deal for him. They would have interest in Andruw Jones on a short-term, shared-risk deal. Aaron Rowand and Mike Cameron appear to be fall-back options among the free agents.
...
The established group [available in trade] is headed by Boston’s Coco Crisp, but given the demand for him, the Red Sox may hold back on trading him until later in the winter. The Rangers have depth at catcher, which is one of Boston’s few needs. Kansas City’s David DeJesus and Tampa Bay’s Rocco Baldelli may also be available.
...
The fringe group includes Kansas City’s Joey Gathright and Cincinnati’s Ryan Freel. The Rangers had conversations in the past about a Gathright-for-[Joaquin] Arias deal.
...
And the prospect group includes Milwaukee’s Tony Gwynn Jr. and the New York Mets’ duo of Carlos Gomez and Lastings Milledge. The Mets need catching. Gwynn’s name has previously come up in conversations between the Rangers and Brewers.

Among the free agents the Rangers have contacted to express interest in further conversations is RHP Kerry Wood, an Irving native and Grand Prairie graduate.
