For real.
-
Locker against Jacksonville looks like a good matchup.
-
Salty at 3/24 is pretty reasonable.
-
McCann, Napoli, Pedroia, Bogaerts, Middlebrooks, Nava, Victorino,.Gonzalez, Ortiz would be my moves.
-
Ross probably isn't an everyday catcher at this stage in his career.
-
The Dodgers
-
Kennum or Big Ben?
-
That Stephen Drew hasn't been around in four.years. He's an injury prone average SS with maybe three interested suitors.
-
Drew accepts the QO, which gives the Red Sox about $28 million left to spend. Ellsbury is going to command $20 million at least. Signing him would leave only $8 million to fill catcher and first base.
-
3/36 for Drew is probably the absolute minimum someone would have to bid to get him to reject the QO.
-
I think Ellsbury's tenure in Boston ended the moment they offered Drew the QO.
-
Ellsbury would have to be very stupid to accept a QO. He'd be leaving at least $86 million on the table.
-
Will Red Sox pursue Japanese Ace - Masahiro Tanaka?

Those people have a different definition of ace than you do. -
It's been discussed to death, but I don't see any other fits for Drew.
-
Pencil Drew at SS, Bogaerts at 3B.
-
The one year upgrade from Buchholz to Shields probably isn't worth Cecchini and Owens. I'd trade those two for a player that we could have on our roster for multiple years.
-
I think Bradley, Owens, and Ranaundo grabs their attention. Slide Victorino to CF.
-
Lester has just one year of control left. Rockies won't want him. Also, Lackey was arguably the MVP of the rotation. Why trade him?
-
Trade for Carlos Gonzalez.
-
Also, I'd love to see Stanton on this team. Give him 7/140 instead of Ellsbury (assuming we are able to trade and extend him)
-
I'd like to see them trade for Carlos Gonzalez, resign Napoli, and sign McCann. However, I can't really make any serious projections until after the QO period.
-
The only way Ellsbury hits 20 HR's next year is if MLB expands a franchise to the Moon.
-
Why do you think Salty, Drew, and Napoli should get qualifying offers?
-
Any previous examples come to mind?
-
Red Sox don't have that kind of money. I think they have about $42 million to spend.
