So the SOX keep Hosmer for next season for almost free if I'm reading you right. In that case I could see Casas and Dalbec platooning at 1st and Hosmer as the main DH, I guess. It's definitely beyond my pay grade.
Yeah, this 'contract' would definitely have to be based on the honor system; it would be very difficult to enforce. I appreciate your honesty. Maybe some nerds can assign SOX fans some kind of WAR numbers so that our allegiance value can be translated into money.
