Sox Are VERY Close...

Toronto must of found a money tree or a pot of gold in the off season. Now let's see how everything pans out.

Sox off season has been miserable.They are now going to get Crisp. He is ok but they are going to give up Martie, spelling, from the Atlanta trade. The guy they were so high on for the future. For Pete's sake they should have just kept Renteria. They are paying 12 mill. of his salary which is the difference of the Damon salary. They would have had Damon and Renteria. Is Crisp and who ever at short better than Damon and Rent. I don't think so. Also now have Lowell at third too, no future there. Very disapointing. P.

I think Crisp has a decent future; he's young and a decent CF'er; at least he has a decent enough arm...

Now the way I see it the Sox will be a better team.
Crisp in center will be ok a good fielder, and a little pop in his bat.
Lowell is a gold glover the guy can hit,lets hope he just had a bad year last season, even if he don't he will be better then Mueller.
If the Sox sign Gonzales at short he will be a major up grade in the field.
I think Snow and Youkilis at first anything has to be better then what Millar done.
The Sox need Schilling and Foulk to get back in to 2004 form,pitching should be strong,especially with all the young guys.

...to pass a physical, and then not pass a physical, and then maybe pass a physical again?



Maybe the Sox's doctors just gave Mota a cursory look, and hoped that the doctors in Philly didn't check his...
ARM!



The deal is off...
...for now, at least.
