Ken Rosenthal of Fox Sports published an interesting piece today that indicated that the window for a Chase Utley trade may be closing and the paths for getting one done may be narrowing. When discussing any potential Utley deal, it is very important to consider that Utley very much has all of the cards. With full no-trade protection through his 10/5 rights, Utley can choose to veto, or conversely allow, any trade that is presented to him. Rosenthal points out, as is consistent with reporting from our own Corey Seidman, as well Jim Salisbury and Todd Zolecki that Utley has never requested a trade and may be reluctant to approve any deal on that basis.
