APCincinnati Reds outfielder Ken Griffey Jr. would consider waiving his no-trade clause to be dealt to the Tampa Bay Rays, Sports Illustrated reported Sunday, citing sources close to Griffey.
Griffey, a resident of Orlando, Fla., has a no-trade clause but would be interested in waiving it if he could be dealt closer to home to a contending team, SI.com reported, citing the unnamed sources.
Griffey hit his 600th homer in Florida last week, and some expect the Reds to try to deal their aging superstar because they're out of contention, but there's nothing close, SI.com reported.
The 39-year-old right fielder is hitting .256 with seven homers and 30 RBIs this season. He is making $12 million this season and has a $16.5 million option for next season.
Griffey has played nine seasons in Cincinnati after being dealt from Seattle. The Mariners are another team that has been mentioned as a possible trade destination for Griffey, although it's less likely because they have the worst record in the American League.
Returning to the American League would mean Griffey could play DH or right field for the Rays.
