| Hot Stove: Could the Rockies pursue a trade for Kevin Youkilis? | 11.06.11 at 8:35 pm ET |

Kevin Youkilis could be an option for the Rockies should the Red Sox decide to trade him. (AP)
After a disastrous September, the Red Sox face the question of how significant a roster overhaul they should enact. While it is possible that they might keep the majority of the 2011 roster intact while seeking to address some acknowledged holes (right-handed hitting outfielder, starting pitching), the team could also consider trading a key roster member. And since the end of the season, there has been plenty of speculation about whether the team could move Kevin Youkilis.
In 2011, the third baseman had his worst season at the plate, hitting .258 with a .373 OBP in 120 games, numbers that were dragged down as he fought off various injuries. In 2010, his season also ended abruptly in August when he tore a muscle in his thumb. The third baseman has averaged just 111 games a season in the last two years. Still, Youkilis had been a significant part of the Boston offense for the previous three years, hitting above .300 over that time with an average OBP of .404.
Troy Renck of the Denver Post suggested that, should the Red Sox look into trading Youkilis, the infielder could be a good fit for the Rockies, who need a solid No. 5 batter. Renck cited Youkilis’s versatility in playing either third or first base as another attraction for Colorado.
Youkilis is due to make $12 million in the 2012 season and has a $13 million team option for 2013 with a $1 million buyout. WEEI.com reported earlier this offseason that Youkilis is unlikely to be traded. Renck’s sources gave him mixed results on the idea of the Red Sox trading Youkilis.
Whether the Sox have any interest in dealing Youkilis remains to be seen. If they do decide to explore his value, however, the Rockies’ interest suggests that he would have suitors.
