Nice,

And to rub salt into the wound Melancoln has 1 run allowed in 17 innings
and Lowrie is on pace to be at least a top 10 shortstop

****ing Red Sox, it is always the same **** with them

It is time to get rid of him. He is one of the only attitudes still on the team, find someone to dump him on before his attitude spreads throughout the clubhouse even more.

Hope Lackey is out just for a short time.

He was looking really good.

I just heard we offered him one year, not that we are going to sign him for 1 year. I have my doubts that Napoli takes a 1 year offer.

I just don't see Giancarlo as a fit.

The team is rebuilding or is in a brige year, it would wreck the minors, turning it from one of the best systems, to one of the worst. It would obviously...

That would be nice, our pen would be unhitable. They would definitely make up for the crappy staff and short games from the likes of Lester and Doubront.

Maybe this is the answer for the crappy starting staff.

Load up on quality BP and bring them in early?

Please be Garret Jones

Long shot, but hopefully we get Jones too.

Lackey is a cancer?

His teammates love him, he cares hell of a lot more than Ellsbury, and most on the team.

He is a hard worker.

Yet he is a cancer because he had a down season. Come on...

Would definitely give up Morals or Aceves for Hanrahan. But not Doubront, even though I do think he will...

He grew up in New Hampshire.

That would be why he wants to pitch here.

With people throwing out the idea of Salty, Pit would have no interest in him.

They signed Russell Martin to a 2 year deal at 7.5 Mil per. They will be playing him at catcher.

Don't like the deal for the Angles at all.

Vargas is terrible away.

Great deal for M's

Not bad.

Probably a like 2-3 mil overpayment. But on a 1 year deal it doesn't really matter considering he has the potential to get us a draft pick next year and have a great year.

I like it.

Would not mind seeing Drew on a 1 year deal or Alex Gonzalez on a minor league deal.

Drew could potentially be a qualifying offer candidate next year.

Gonzalez could offer some insurance if...

This. But don't be too focused on the run and let them kill us in the passing game.

Hopefully Talib shuts down Crabtree 1 on 1.

Should be a good game.

Does anyone see Big Al coming back either at the trade deadline or in free agency.

Could deal Bass + Lee + Sully/Melo + Picks for him?

Would that get it done? Is it to much?

Or could wait...

If everything goes well in the rotation, things could turn out well. It is all there, I just doubt Doubront/Dempster/Lester/Buch all put it together. 2-3 of them will probably have another bad year.

I would say as of right now, if most goes right in the pitching staff, we are real close to a wild card game vs. either Toronto or New York.

Texas has lost so many free agents, and will be...

???

Wade Davis is an afterthought in that trade. He is a #5 starter. He matches with the likes of Morales or Aceves. I would rather have Aceves than Davis, but my bias may be playing in there. If...

Texas has already let it be widely known Andrus won't move.

An Andrus trade would domino effect an opening at 1B, which would be Olt's spot if that occurred. With Olt moving in this deal also,...

Well, why wouldn't they have sent him to KC if that were the case? Multiple reports came out about the Royals willingness to include Meyers in a Lester deal.

This team is obviously not rebuilding...

Obviously.

I am just saying that Ben couldn't because of those reasons. I am sure you understand that.

Couldn't, due to LL and Henry, Along with NESN and the fan base who would see the deal as terrible. As it would look bad when people hear Lester traded for prospects.
