Swisher on the Block?

According to a post on MLBTR, some National League teams are looking to land Nick Swisher (via Mark Feinsand). In a link from the same post, Braves beat writer Mark Bowman gives his take:

• Consequently, the Braves were forced to wait and possibly miss other opportunities to improve their team. They had some interest in Nick Swisher and might have been able to land him before the Yankees did last week. But to get Swisher, who could have filled their need for a left fielder, Atlanta would have likely had to trade some of the players it was offering to San Diego.

The Yanks are not going to trade a cost-controlled, young Moneyballer for Yunel Escobar, although for a team with a hole at shortstop (<cough> Boston <cough>) it would be ideal. So, who might “some of the players it was offering to San Diego [for Peavy]” be? Escobar, second baseman Kelly Johnson, outfield prospects Jason Heyward and Jordan Schafer, and pitching prospect Tommy Hanson are the only players that I can recall being mentioned over the past few weeks. I don’t see a match unless Brian Cashman decides to add a positional prospect and either hope for his contribution (i.e. Schafer or Heyward) or try to get one of Casey Kotchman or Jair Jurrjens. If the Yanks trade him, I would rather the return be a Major League player, but it doesn’t seem to be the most likely scenario. Jurrjens would be interesting but I seriously doubt the Braves would trade the youngest and, maybe best pitcher from their rotation defecit. We shall see.
