Jonathan Papelbon has recorded three saves in the last three days for the Philadelphia Phillies, but says he would welcome a trade to a contender.
The Phillies are on pace to lose 91 games this season.
"Some guys want to stay on a losing team?" Papelbon said. "That's mind-boggling to me."
If a contender called, would he go?
"Yeah," he said. "I think that's a no-brainer."
Papelbon said he doesn't have a gut feeling whether or not he will be traded before the deadline, although the Phillies have been motivated to move him. They tried to trade him before last year's deadline and again this offseason.
