Saturday, December 10, I'art III 21 Cots Ansjelco SJimeo MAESLAIM J. WEKNEB'S PADRES MUHAMMAD ALI Saturday BASEBALL CARD Slnow of a Lifetime LSI I ll I -nil i't-l pitcher Greg I larris to complete the deal. The Seattle Mariners about reliever Mike Schooler and either third baseman Jim Presley or outfielder Mickey Brantley. This is McKeon's "back-burner" special, a deal that perhaps could have been made this week but was held up while "patient" McKeon searched for better things. The original problem was that the Mariners would not give up Schooler, a right-handed reliever who was one of the league's top rookies and a favorite of Padre pitching coach Pat Dobson when Dobson worked with the Seattle minor leaguers.

Last year, in 48V6 innings, Schooler struck out 54 and walked just 24 with 15 saves in 40 appearances. But as the Mariners begin to realize they have no catcher, many think they will agree to give up the kid. The New York Mets about third baseman Howard Johnson and outfielder Len Dykstra. Yes, the Mets have said they do not need a catcher and turned the Padres away when they came looking for Johnson earlier. But insiders say the bit about the catcher is a smoke screen to bring Alomar's price down, that anybody with an aging Gary Carter needs a catcher.

And now that Johnson and Dykstra have been initially turned down as a package by the Braves for Murphy, they should be available. If you really want to think tricky, imagine McKeon picking up those two from the Mets and then packaging them with other outfielders to send to the Braves for Murphy. The Philadelphia Phillies about third baseman outfielder Chris James and outfielder Von Hayes. McKeon wants to pick up James for shortstop Dickie Thon, who has demanded to be traded and will become a free agent in March if his demand isn't met. But the Phillies have balked, and only recently began mentioning a bigger deal including Alomar Jr.

1 would take, and I ain't taking just anything. Remember, I've got the hole card, I've got the young catcher. They've got to pay the price." Could it be that the asking price for Alomar Jr. is too high? Yes and no. Yes, perhaps too high for the first week in December.

No, not too high for the first week in April, and McKeon said he would wait until then if he had to. "Patience, patience. One thing I have learned is patience," he said. "I'll wait for them. They'll come, you watch." Look for clubs to resume conversations with him next week, and perhaps for that one last deal to be completed by Christmas.

In order of importance, here's who will be calling: The Atlanta Braves about Dale Murphy This deal, hot because of the news that Murphy would like to play with buddy Hurst, will stay hot. It appears the Mets, having bickered for a week with Cox over the value of Murphy, are no longer the leading candidate to pick up the Braves slugger. Even if they were to agree on players not likely after Mets Manager Davey Johnson accused Cox of "demanding half of our lineup" it appears Murphy might not approve a deal to New York. Especially not after he saw Hurst sign with San Diego. "Murph told me he would love to come to San Diego, especially if Hurst signs," said ex-Padre Dane Iorg, a friend of both men who last week correctly guessed Hurst's defection from Boston to the Padres.

The Padres initially struggled in their bid for Murphy. Cox claimed he didn't want Alomar Jr. because of the Braves' recent acquisition of former Cubs catcher Jody Davis. But with the Mets deal stalled, it now appears the Braves would take Alomar Jr. and use him as trade bait.

They would also likely take outfielders John Kruk and Shawn Abner and minor-league star At only $18,077 it raises questions about conventional values.

Mfr's. Continued from Page 1 agent pitcher Bruce Hurst, which experts say will be enough. But McKeon knows better. The Hurst thing was a lawyer thing. His club needs a trade, an honest-to-goodness body swap.

And it didn't get one. While filling one of their two needs with Hurst, the Padres still have a vacancy at the other need. They still need a power -hitter who can play third base or the outfield. And they still have the expendable player who can bring them such a hitter catcher Sandy Alomar the Topps minor league player of the year. In other words, where he hoped to return home after these meetings with a chance to put up his feet, McKeon still faces work.

He claims he's not worried "Why should I be worried, I still think we'll acquire that other hitter, I know he's out there somewhere. Hey, we're just getting started." But he is also not completely comfortable. He thought he was close to picking up Cub shortstop Shawon Dunston this week until the Cubs filled their needs elsewhere and now will probably keep him. He thought he was close to Mike Pagliarulo, the Yankee third baseman, but when the Yankees said they would get back to him in 10 minutes Sunday night, 10 minutes became 4 days and he never heard from them again. He bid for Cleveland's Joe Carter and Brook Jacoby and was rejected.

He bid for the Mets' Howard Johnson and was ignored. Montreal told him to stay away from Tim Wallach and Hubie Brooks. Texas told him to stay away from Steve Buechele. It was a week of short meetings, verbal standoffs and not at all what McKeon had expected. "I came to improve the team, but I couldn't get what I wanted," he said simply.

"Nobody offered what HAWKINS Continued from Page 1 Padres: "Goodby." "That was about it," Hawkins said. After he went 14-11 last year and improved his 7-year total with the Padres to 60-58, that was about it for Hawkins. Even though the club made an effort to keep him, Hawkins knew the chances were he wouldn't return. On Sept. 14, Hawkins' agent, Jerry Kapstein, and Chub Feeney, who was then the Padres' president, engaged in a shouting match before a Wednesday night home loss to San Francisco.

Said Hawkins Friday: "By that time, without a doubt, we felt there was a very strong possibility we wouldn't be coming back."

"I wouldn't say that the Padres didn't want me, but I would say that they wanted me only on their terms," Hawkins said. "Of course, any time you've been with an organization for 11 years, and you leave, you have feelings of regret. But whatever disappointment I have has been overcome by the idea that I now have the opportunity of a lifetime to pitch for the Yankees." Green has said Hawkins will head a staff that included John Candaleria, Richard Dotson and Rick Rhoden last season. Also waiting for Hawkins in Yankee pinstripes are former Padres Lance McCullers and Jimmy Jones (who came in the trade for Jack Clark last month) and free-agent lefthander Dave LaPoint, who played with the Padres in 1987.

3 15 er," Hawkins said. Because Hawkins suffered a shoulder injury in 1987 (he was 3-10 that year), any team that signed him as a free agent this season wasn't going to be forced to pay compensation. That made him attractive and forced up the ante. "That shoulder injury is looking better and better," Hawkins said. New York is also looking better and better.

And San Diego? Well, Hawkins really isn't looking anymore. More than anything, he said, he'll miss Padre trainer Dick Dent's daily workouts, such as the one he participated in Friday. And, will the Padre shirt have to go, too? "No, I never wear a shirt from the team I play for," Hawkins said. "When I was with the Padres, I always wore some other team's shirt." So it's time to throw out all the Yankee shirts. Mt Miguel vs Mission Bay.
