welp since the yankees actually beat the angels or boston which i didn't think would happen i am officially out of here for good . To be honest i haven't really missed it. Considering it is only 5 yankee fans with 5 different names taking over this board good riddance.  ... As for this board i am sad to say it is officially dead to most red sox fans. Let the five preteens troll this board from now till eternity's end who...

I can't believe that the media can publish reports saying things like the Jays will require two top-tier MLB ready prospects. Don't they remember what happened 2-years ago when a 28-year-old left-handed ace named Johan Santana was traded a year before free agency? There were no takers and he eventually ended up getting traded for one good prospect and three other insignificant low-tier prospects. What makes people think things will...

What's everyone's take on this- do the sox have enough on the farm to acquire BOTH of these guys? I was thinking something like this: Halladay for Buchholz Kalish Kelley Exposito Cabrera for Lowell Bowden Doubront Anderson Think deals like this get it done?  Toronto gets a great package for Roy, but we would lock him up for something like a 4/70mm extension.  Cabrera has a huge contract Detroit would want to unload, and they get a...

OK, now that you've explained what you DON'T want, can you tell us what you'd like to see happen?

The New England-Boston argument is just plain lame. Technicalities are for girls. Why does "Sports Center Boston" cover the Pats then? They are the Boston Patriots. They are Boston's team, my friend, get over it.

What trade and free agent moves would you make? Mine would be- Re-sign Jason Bay Trade for Adrian Gonzalez (Lowell, Varitek, AAA Prospect) Trade for Tommy Hanson (Ramon Ramirez, AA Prospect) Trade for Roy Halladay ( J.D. Drew, cash, AAA Prospect, Daisuke Matsuzaka)   I know its unlikely that some of those deals would go through, but it would be nice. Overall, I think it would make them younger, better, and it would get rid of some overpaid...

 Ok, You think Drew is going to have the best OPS in the league if he is playing a full season - oh wait - he never has. Shut your hole.   So not only did you avoid everyquestion, but you're now running with the idea that somehow Drew isonly good because he doesn't achieve some arbitrary amount of gamesplayed.  Are you saying if he did, his production would surely godown?  If he wouldn't have played through back injuries...

Denny, You are not very bright. All they have to do is sign Figgins - easily the most versatile player in the bigs and this whole notion about moving Lowell, Youkilis, et al. to different positions is over. Damn, are you dumb.

I would rather have holliday anyways good bye jason thank you for replacing manny for a couple years have fun trying to get paid in this market.

The truth will eventually come out. Boston has already offered to pick up half of Lowell's salary for at least one team (Rockies) and told, no thanks. Personally, I don't understand why the Red Sox are willing to pay ANY of his salary for another team to take him. If Lowell is such a reliable, productive player... They should just keep him... play him all season. Or at least platoon him... Oh, not you normal right/lefty platoon......
