First Player Move this off Season?

I think it will be something low profile like a bullpen piece-- not a major bullpen piece.

Low profile BP piece is a safe bet. I'd say OF but Beltran isn't signing quickly and Cepedes(sp?) paperwork isn't likely to get done anytime this month. Nothing good happens until usually Decemeber. MLB free agency is the most drawn out ridiculous process in all of the major sports. Football was excellent this year. It was like one week of pure crazyness and signings like every 5 mins. Be nice if baseball made the process a bit quicker. I think FA should open 5 days after the end of the WS. If you don't know who you are offering arb andwhatever else by then you haven't been planning very well.

As I said, our No. 1 priority should be signing the SP. Hope that Cherington has this as no 1 priority as well.

 

BTW via FA.
