PHILADELPHIA (CBS) — There are a lot of teams interested in Philadelphia Phillies left-handed ace Cole Hamels, and the Phils want their “best” offers by Wednesday, according to a report from ESPN.com’s Jayson Stark.
Teams reportedly interested in the 31-year-old three-time all-star included the Los Angeles Dodgers, Texas Rangers, Chicago Cubs, San Francisco Giants, Houston Astros, Arizona Diamondbacks, New York Yankees and Boston Red Sox.
Hamels has reportedly increased interest after throwing his first-career no hitter on Saturday against the Cubs.
Hamels’ is scheduled to make his next start at Citizens Bank Park against the Braves on Thursday, the day before Major League Baseball’s trade deadline.
