if Matsuzaka gets sent back to Japan it'd be awesome if the Japanese forced Boras to commit Harakiri
(if you aren't familiar with that stuff, basically you slice open yourself with a sword - supposed to have been done by people who shamed themselves during the Samurai era)
So if we sign him, are we gonna count on him to be our closer? Because I'd be uncomfortable relying on a guy that's only pitched 15 innings the past 2 years

1 year, $7 million
I guess this means we won't be trading Manny to them
I guess that makes sense...
Our lineup looks pretty stacked. Of course we probably won't be able to count on Drew being in the lineup for the entire season
well, he hit at the top of the lineup for both us and the Guardians - solid speed, decent pop in his bat. Granted his patience needs work, but I think Lugo and Coco at the top could be effective
I'd like to see Coco and Lugo should be at the top of the order. I'm not too high on Drew - I'd put him 6th or 7th. He strikes out quite a bit and leaves guys on base.
