This is a very well thought out post. Who knows why they didn't sign Tex, could be shame on the FO or other reasons unknown to us. Whatever they failed to sign their #1 priority and had all their eggs in one basket. It is frustrating but I trust Theo will do SOMETHING.
We have 4 major league starters at best. I've said it before but I am extremely nervous about Dice-K and the WBC, I dunno how hes going to be able to perform all year long after that. As for Wake I dunno how much more he has left so that is worrisome as well. I disagree with the SS position, I think Lowrie is going to be a good player so they are fine there. We all know C is a big hole right now.
If Lowell and Papi dont bounce back this year its going to be tough to compete. A number of things are working against us this year and I hope Theo has one more up his sleeve.
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays.
