I'm not as negative as Fred but I have to say I'm getting a bad feeling about the pitching situation. A lot of people think Lester is gone to the Cubs or the Giants. And meanwhile, it sounds like the Dodgers are working out a deal for Hamels.
-
And Lester went out and had himself the classic 'contract year', best of his career. As did Andrew Miller.
-
I read that Lester wants 6/$150. It'll be interesting if both the Sox and Cubs say they'll give him that and it comes down to a choice between the teams.
-
Reportedly working on a trade with Dodgers for Kemp.
-
Is Detroit actually making Price available? Seems to me they'd be holding onto him for dear life with Scherzer going, Verlander off a bad year etc.
-
All the more reason the Sox have to sign Lester.
-
What the heck? You don't think Panda can maintain .275-.290 with 15+ HR and thus also be a 'productive big leaguer'? No, I know, he's going to turn into the Goodyear blimp and just float away.
-
Would what Detroit gave up for Price be a comp to what Cincy would expect for Cueto?
-
You too? I know some people are sick of me talking about Nava. Let me try to approach this a little differently. It's my understanding that the Red Sox, under the philosophy of Bill James and Moneyball and all that stuff, place a high value on OBP. Nava was 2nd on the team in that stat in 2013, and 3rd in 2014. I would think they would be reluctant to dish off one of their top OBP guys, especially one who makes jacksquat, especially in light of the offensive struggles last year and the 'new emphasis on offense' and the various health and inexperience issues surrounding our 2015 outfield.
-
There are a lot of things that could go wrong with that team too.
-
Jacko was trying to tell us that Ramirez had something to do with the Dodgers exiting the playoffs early two years in a row. It's horseshit. Ramirez put up great numbers and Kershaw s*** the bed. Those are the facts.
-
It's now rumored the Yankees are close to making an offer for Scherzer - 7 years, 160 million+.
-
I think the main purpose of the right/left thing is to prevent the other team from being able to have a lefty reliever face two lefty hitters in a row. That can be big late in the game.
-
Pretty hard to with only two lefty bats.

Betts Pedroia Ortiz Hanley Panda Napoli Bogaerts/Castillo - order based on performance Vasquez
-
The funniest part for me is trying to tie Ramirez to the Dodgers' early postseason exits when he put up a fairly respectable 356/453/578 slash line in those games.
-
Kershaw has been the major postseason f***up for the Dodgers.
-
Ballplayers on Twitter, how could that be a bad idea?
-
Absolutely, his price tag, which is projected at $1.9 million this year, is a big part of the equation. They can't be spending big bucks at every position. You need some cheaper pieces.
-
I don't think Nava gets traded for the simple reason that we are very short on LH bats.
-
I think the Sox are actively trying to trade Cespedes.
-
So who would you have preferred they acquire for third base?
-
Dreams are what the offseason is for.
-
Wild card #1 is Victorino. This guy could get traded, or he could have a 5-6 WAR season, or he could tweak something early and say bye-bye until 2016.
