Roy Oswalt Plans To Accept Trade To Phillies
Roy Oswalt plans to OK deal to #Phillies, source says. But deal not official yet. More to come on ESPN.com #trades
With the players settled, the money settled, and the matter of Oswalt’s no-trade clause settled, everything’s in place for the long-time Astros ace to head to Philadelphia. All that should be left now is dotting some i’s, crossing some t’s, and maybe some physical examinations.
