SS Stephen Drew has been mentioned as a potential trade candidate in national speculation, but D-backs president and CEO Derrick Hall told fans during his monthly chat session that Drew will not be moved. "That comes from other teams having interest and floating his name out there," Hall said. "He would be too tough to replace if we ever moved him. Strictly rumors." Drew was the third shortstop in major league history to hit 40 doubles, 10 triples and 20 home runs in the same season when he batted .291 with 44 doubles, 11 triples and 21 homers in 2008, although he slumped to .261 and 26, 12 and 12 after a slow start in 2009.
