David Price, who will be a free agent this winter, says the presence of David Dombrowski in Boston won't give the Red Sox an advantage in signing him.

Price, now with the Toronto Blue Jays, spent some time with Dombrowski as a member of the Detroit Tigers.

"I'm not going anywhere because of a GM or because of a coach or because of anyone," Price said when asked about Dombrowski and the Red Sox. "No. It changes nothing."

Price does respects Dombrowski, the former Tigers president who acquired him at the 2014 trade deadline and shipped him away at this one.

"Dave's always around," Price said. "He's always in the clubhouse, always being personable with all the players. If you need anything from him, he's always around so you can ask him. It's cool."
