Its crossed my mind. The Red Sox , as currently constructed - could still change, are built on the strategy of never giving up a run. If executed, its a strategy that will surely work, despite the fact that we'll be in for some 17 inning 1-0 victories.
However, in order for the strategy to have a chance, its incredibly important that our #8 pitcher is a true ace and we have 6 top closers.
Personally, I think it would have been easier to just get a couple bats and maybe we still will, but Ill get sucked in if they are winning. Always do.
