The Padres have made a few runs at signing third baseman Chase Headley to a long-term contract to no avail, and now according to sources, San Diego is willing to listen to offers for the switch-hitter.
 
The Yankees have inquired before, but neither side thinks they match up for Headley, who will be entering his walk year.
He is not going to be easy to move for reasons beyond his proximity to free agency. The Padres will want to market him as the MVP candidate who hit 31 homers and drove in 115 runs in 2012, and suitors will be concerned about the 13 and 50 he generated last year. The general consensus is that he probably falls someplace in between as a player.
