I gave an F. I understand the Lester trade. I liked the Miller trade. I don't like giving the Yankees a player for money, and I consider the Lackey trade the worst trade in my time as a Red Sox fan -- and that includes the Lowrie trade.
-
I still have hope for the trade-and-sign. Because without the trade and sign, this team is 5-10 years away from meaningful games.
-
I believe in numbers. http://www.fangraphs.com/statss.aspx?playerid=13110&position=OF#fieldingadvanced

So in total.... Outbound: Lester, Lackey, Peavy, Doubront, Miller, Gomes, Drew, AJ. Inbound: Cespedes, Craig, Johnson, two top 100 mlb pitching prospects, money. Meanwhile, Carp is fuming.
-
Loading up on players who will piss off fans not getting to see Jeter.
-
My math says it must come out to around 4.7 million, minus Johnson's share.
-
Rays get Nick Franklin and Smyly. Seemingly unimpressive haul if you ask me.
-
David Price for Nick Franklin and Drew Smyly. Doesn't seem worth it for the Rays, IMO
-
Lineup: Holt Pedroia Ortiz Napoli Cespedes Craig/Nava Bradley/Victorino Xander Vazquez Rotation: Buchholz Rubby De La Rosa Workman Webster Ranaudo Well s***.
-
Haven't we learned our lesson? Sending the Yankees our players for large sums of cash is a scary, horrible thing that leads to hundreds of years of championship droughts.
-
...and Stephen Drew to the Yankees...??!!

What just happened? I? What? Huh? -
How did the Red Sox get a top 50 prospect for Andrew Miller, but struggled to get anything for Lester and Lackey? I don't get it.
-
Unless they get that #1 spot, its a pretty awful year to be a bad team. The Astros were unable to sign the #1 pick and will be locking up the #2 spot for next draft.
-
Yankees acquire Byrd. My guess is : peanuts.
-
Craig reportedly very unhappy about the trade. Great.
-
No real confirmation yet haha. I forgot about the Fielder trade -- who is the next worst contract on the Tigers that the Red Sox could trade for? Larry is getting too trigger happy right now.
-
Andrew Miller to the Tigers. My guess is, they're picking up Prince Fielder's contract, and throwing in Xander, Owens, Betts and Swihart.
-
Looking at Craig's career numbers and park factors, maybe Fenway can help him. I just wish his current numbers -- june and july especially -- didn't make him look so much like a DFA target. They would have been better off pulling in prospects and giving Dan Uggla a shot. Basically, they traded two top of the rotation guys for two guys who could potentially turn into strong pieces, moving out of pitcher parks. The real problem is that Allen Craig has hit significantly better at home than away. We're talking an extra .070 OPS. So it isn't like Busch has hurt him that much.
-
Dojji, it is much more important to have players who can play good defense at one position than to have players who perform terrible defense at multiple positions.
-
Also, the Red Sox are sending the Cardinals money. What is going on? Did Red Sox ownership make a deal with Cardinal ownership to throw the World Series? This deal is getting historically bad.
-
I am floored by this deal. I don't get it, my brain hurts just trying to comprehend why it was made. It makes me want to stop being a Red Sox fan, because this season went from awful to otherworldly bad.
-
Allen Craig is owed $25 million over the next three years. Joe Kelly recently was shelled by the Chicago Cubs and the Padres. Lackey is a dominant #2 pitcher who will pitch for the minimum next year. The Red Sox are also giving someone else away with him. What on earth happened? How? Why? This is the worst trade I've ever seen.
-
This is bad. Very very bad. I can't understand how bad this deal is.
-
Joe Kelly / Allen Craig coming back. What the f***? Ben got fleeced here.
-
Lackey to Cards for an OF. Could it be Taveras?
