    His heart condition might have had something to do with his August production being down.

    They'll give it to Jeter and his #'s are not in the same stratosphere as Papi's.

    He has had very little Al experience, but he didn't do too badly in his latest stint with Tampa Bay. Seanez was a disaster in the AL.

    Maybe Dennis Leary can give him the award.

    Exactly, why would we get rid of Manny at the point he has become a financial bargain. You trade a player of Manny's caliber if you are looking to rebuild. With a rotation of Beckett, Matuszaka, Schilling, Papelbon and possibly Clemens, you are looking at a stacked team that needs to shore up it's bullpen and get one more bat to make a sreious run. Trading Manny would disembowel the team for a couple of years.

    NAme me a hitter other than Pujols who is tied up by the Cardinals that could possibly replace Manny. I think you may be overlooking his place in the history of this game. It would take two good hitters to replace what Manny means to the Red Sox lineup.

    Definitely not the closer we are looking for, but we need more than a closer. Borowski could share seventh and eith inning duties.

    The difference to me is that Seanez has never been any good under pressure. Let's face it, if Seanez had pitched for Boston any where close to his stats from his prior two years we would have been happy. I think Borowski can handle the pressure of Boston and the AL and pitch close to his prior stats. I pick Borowski hands down, regardless of the stats.
  13. a700hitter
    I think he is significantly better than Seanez. Seanez could not be trusted in any high pressure spot. Borowski has been a closer with moderate success at times. He doesn't spit the bit and choke like Seanez.

    I agree, but I hope Theo starts making some moves before more guys get picked off. That will drive up the price on the remaining guys, and the FO will start looking at waiver wires and garbage heaps for the likes of Seanez like last year.
  15. a700hitter
    That's a great idea. I hope it gets some traction and the FO takes notice.

    They can always trade him after 4 or 5 years and eat some money. If he has a catastrophic injury, I am sure the contract is insured. Length of contract doesn't bother me that much with a consistent performer like Soriano. If they get 3 or 4 good years out of him before he declines, it's not the worse thing, unless he falls off the proverbial cliff.

    Scaffolds, your posts last night were very uncharacteristic for you. What's up?
  19. a700hitter
    I really hope that Theo and co. are not trying to pull off some exotic multi-team deal, while these guys are getting picked off one at a time.
  20. a700hitter
    Relief pitching was expensive last year and the Sox sat on the sidelines except for third tier guys like ZTaveras and Seanez and they paid for it during the season.
  21. a700hitter
    Drew is probably the only available oF that can play RF in fenway as well as Nixon.
  22. a700hitter
    They are convinced that closing is not the best thing for Papelbon's arm. He's on track to start. Theo knows that he will have to get a closer.
  23. a700hitter
    He is a special fielder-- top shelf.
  24. a700hitter
    Looks like Lugo just got more negotiating leverage.
  25. a700hitter
    Gonzo is officially gone. Three years $14 million from the Reds per WEEI.
