If the goal is 95 wins again, they're just about there already. So we can take the year off and tune into the ALDS next October to see if they can beat the Angels. Go Beckett. Go Lester.
Taking a step back, it's hard for me to understand what would drive a team to want to trade a top player with multiple arb years remaining and no apparent high level replacement on the team.
Felix? I think Seattle would be insane to shop him.
People who dwell on Manny/Ortiz as the reason for two world championships will have to acknowledge the inconvenient truth that both were probably juiced while putting up those numbers.
The Yanks were juiced for their last couple of rings too. And one of their top current players has admitted being juiced in Texas while he hit about 175 of his home runs. Is he clean now? Who knows.
What a sad and pathetic waste of enthusiasm.
