Except for Halladay.

In all fairness, the discussion never revolved about Bay being the cleanup hitter, but rather the fact that the Sox don't have a cleanup hitter, per my view, and didn't last year, because of my premise that Youk, while good at the spot, is not your typical four-hole hitter.

I think that if there were, A-Gon would be a happy man and would i. This one's just opinion, though, but i don't really buy it. I'll challenge you to present me with one and i'll give you an honest opinion.

Doiji, i never said once they'd be the sole targets, in fact, my original statement was "Clay/Kelly/West +"

*sigh* I do. Apparently, you don't.

They didn't offer more money. Not to mention this is an enormous strawman. I've never said they didn't want him, they had a set value for him, and wouldn't go over it, and one of the driving factors was the reason already presented. Focus on the point.

Who do i believe? Multiple sources who said this repeatedly? or Jacko and his Red Sox dream crushing attempts? Hmmmmm..........

But in the context on this discussion, the Sox needed a CF. They didn't have the option of handing a big-money contract to Damon then have nowhere to play him. This is exactly my point. The hilarity would have been such, that replays of Manny playing RF might have become the TV show with best ratings in the world.

Regardless of diony's typical trolling attempts, i can see why my poor choice of words caused "confusion" when i said "publicly stated" i should have said "he was quoted as stating". As for the link: Padres ask for Bucholz and Kelly/Westmoreland for A-Gon Hey, don't believe it if you don't want to, or attempt to get off on a poor choice of wording, but the fact is, i'll believe my news sources everyday over anyone else.

That's sensible.

His keeping in contact with Bay would support your theory.

The Sox weren't expecting Ellsbury to replace Damon at that moment. They were targeting Coco Crisp after the Yanks got him. Also: Johnny Damon played 576 games with the Yankees throughout four seasons. In those four seasons, he played 213 games at CF.

You keep avoiding the point. How many of those games were played in CF?
