Did anyone catch Neumy with merloni this evening on the baseball show and what Neumy had to say about trade ideas.
For those who didn't catch it, Neumy thinks that the Sox should trade X or Betts for a pitcher(Hamels was in this discussion). I for one feel this is a terrible decision. Betts and X have been on fire as of late, and could potentially become franchise players for Boston if things go well. They have shown their value, but I don't think getting rid of young studs is by any means a solid transaction for a starting pitcher. Especially since I feel like our pitching has been getting "slightly" better. (I cringe my teeth as I say that) With the exception of Porcello doing Porcello things and Kelly doing Kelly things, I feel wade has really shown he can be a part of the rotation and E-Rod doing great things.
To reiterate though, I do feel we need a nice big name guy like Lester in the rotation, but I don't feel getting rid of Betts or X is the answer for that. Plus I just bought a Betts jersey a couple weeks ago...
Let me know what you guys think!
