    Man I get the Cespedes trade for a pitcher thing. Imagine the lineup possibilities if we could keep him.
  2. soxfan74
    Well my first guy was traded a couple years ago. So I'll readopt Bryce Brentz!
  3. soxfan74
    Looks like Brentz was promoted to triple A on the 30th. Went 0-3 in his debut. He's not far away now! Another season in the minors. May see him up some next season!

    Yes it's going to be Valentine. Much to my chagrin. The media just had to have a big name. Don't see this guy making it in Boston.

    Sox could expand there search if Sveum takes the Cubs job. http://www.mlbtraderumors.com/

    Apparently Jayson Stark from ESPN is reporting that the deal includes a vesting option. Could bring the the deal well over 60 million. That makes more sense.
  7. soxfan74
    I'll wait for the official numbers. Something tells me it's more than four years 50 million. unless the fourth year is an option year.

    Lets see what he got first. Any other year this would be a huge blow. There are still a bunch of closers out there. Wouldn't mind Madson.
  9. soxfan74
    As long as it's an incentive based contract. The risk would be worth it. Depending on his current medical status also. We could use the Right handed bat

    Over A seven run ERA in A ball. I'll pass. Add my vote to keep Bard where he is or take over for Pap if he doesn't come back.
  11. soxfan74
    If Selig steps in. I don't think we'll get what we should.
  12. soxfan74
    good riddance!

    This one really aggravated me at the time. I know we got the picks for letting Victor walk. We really could have used those guys this season. One of those deals at the time that everyone wanted. Way overpaid for a little over a year of V-mart.

    Just read that article. Just goes to show you how far this guy has fallen. If he doesn't want to be here than let him go. Worst cas escenario he ends up with the Yankees. he's thirty six and doesn't have much time left anyway. I appreciate all that he has done. His attitude has turned to garbage. Time to get this old guard out of here. Pedey, Gonzalez, And Crawford need to take over the leadership roles.

    Hate to see him go. Smart choice on his behalf if he does. A bad season and he would have gotten the boot anyway. There saying it should be official in the next 24 to 48 hours on comcast. There also saying the Sox have told Chicago they want something real in return. Matt Garza maybe?
  16. soxfan74
    absolutely not!

    I'll add a vote for Martinez. Soxfanforsyth. I'm with you on the Jim Hickey Idea as well. One of the reasons Tampa does so well against us is the way they run the pitching staff there. I like the idea of Mackanin from the phillies as well.
  18. soxfan74
    I am kind of on the ropes with Youkilis myself. I agree he should most definitely be on the trading block at this point. His body is breaking down. Not a surprise with the way he plays the game. Of Course we all know about Lackey. Get this guy out by any means necessary. If we have to eat half the contract. Fine. The guy that pisses me off the most is Ortiz. Between the whining about one Rbi garbage and the Aceves comment. What a cry baby. After all the Framcona did for that guy. Sticking up fpr him with Steroid reports. Sticking with him during his slow starts. Let him walk. Let all these free agents walk. It's time for some changes. We need some fresh blood. Young blood preferably.

    You're a better man than me. No way in hell I could watch Baseball. right now.
  20. soxfan74
    No doubt about that! Beane is an excellent GM considering what he has to work with. Would he leave Oakland? That is the question. He's been there a long time.
  21. soxfan74
    Heard Merloni suggest this earlier. Putting bard in the starting rotation is a bad idea. Should proabably take a look at his line in low A ball nefore he was moved into the Bullpen in 2007. Not good.
  22. soxfan74
    Cherington would be the best choice if Theo does leave.
  23. soxfan74
    Exactly! Let them all walk. Like the idea about reinvesting in Ellsbury. I just don't think Boras will do the deal until he hits the open market. Let Lavarnway play DH. We could use the right handed bat in the line-up.
  24. soxfan74
    Big mistake if they let him walk.
  25. soxfan74
    I agree with this completely. There is no telling what went on behind closed doors. Complaining about one RBI. really? That seems like a guy that is more interested in himself than anything else. You can take some pressure off Agon and Youk by having them DH at times also. I could never understand why He was good enough to play first in interleague play. Yet he could not be used to give Agon ar Youk when he played there the occasional day off from the field. I personally think that it is time for Lavernway at backup catcher/DH. He did much better than expected the last two games. No he did not get the key hit needed the last game. He did have one taken away with the great catch by Markakis.
