Sox Trade for LaRoche! IU can't believe it - he sucks! We better not be giving up anything good for him - hopefully just a player to be named later or something. LaRoche in probably means Kotsay out, right? maybe

Dice-K probably peaked last year. He doesn't throw enough strikes and walks too many people. He'll pitch effectively through 5 innings every time and I don' think I expect much more than that.

Derrick Turnbow seems like the most legit option as far as a trade goes that the Red Sox have. Benitez is way more risky, as he can suck at times and is also a perennial injury. Turnbow was lights out last year for abotu half the season, and somehow just lost it. Usually when a pitcher shits the bed that quickly, it is something that can be fixed. Guys who are done for usually digress more gradually. Plus, Turnbow is a lot younger and could be around for more than just this year.

He's gonna make so much money off this! As if he doesn't have enough yet, right? Could he give the grill to a soup kitchen or a homeless shelter and just write off the cost of it? Yes. Could he donate it to charity, or promote this whole auction for something more worthwhile? Yes. Could he just leave the grill in his garage and not care about $4,000 since he makes $20,000,000? Yes. But he isn’t - he’s selling it on eBay and making a quick buck. I say go for it Manny - be a cheap-ass as long as you keep hitting.
