Mueller will always be a Sox in my mind, unless he suits up in the pinstripes. But Lowell is a solid replacement, a Gold Glover, cant really go wrong there. Sure his bat favors the Monster, but he cant suck on the road alllllll year. And yea, who does consider Beckett and Crisp poor or tierd? If anything, they were never in the spotlight enough to fade and become "poor" or "tierd". They are just warming up to have great careers in Boston.
