Your (now hourly) Roy Oswalt Update

According to FoxSports.com, Roy Oswalt does not want to play for the Phillies.

Oswalt does not want to go to the Phillies in a trade, a source with direct knowledge of his thinking said Monday.

I'm not sure what a person with "direct knowledge of his thinking" means.  A friend?  His wife?  A wizard?

But still, this comes as no surprise.  Last week, we reported reported that Oswalt didn't want to play in a large media market.  And earlier today, we mentioned that another source said he didn't want to play for a "big time" team like the Yankees.

The story goes on to say that a deal for Oswalt appears less likely because of his, and the Astros', demands.

It sounds like Oswalt would prefer pitching in obscurity down in Houston.  And that's just fine.
