Boot man, you got to clean them rose coloerd galsses The Sox done nothing to help themselfs at the trade deadline,Theo must be scared of making another bad deal?
This team is full of holes and none were addressed?
Do you think the starting pitching is going to carry them with the likes of Jason Johnson, Kyle Snyder,and that big fat pig David Wells he got rocked for eight runs last time out, let alone the two Z men in the pen.
Big Popi and Manny have been carrying this team it is just a matter of time before one of them has a little dry slump
The Sox have the killer part of the Schedule coming up in a few weeks, and I think it will decide their fate?
I hope the Sox can find a way of getting Andrew Jones from the Braves

Getting a center fielder is the least of their worries. They need starting pitchers more than anything. The only way to get Jones is giving up pitching

I think Beckett will be fine...Someone just has to get in his head that its ok to throw something other than a fastball down the middle when your in trouble..You cant over power everyone..

Any time I can get a young everyday player that will hit 30 homers and drive in 100 RBI's I will trade for him in a heart beat.
Only untouchable on the Sox staff would be Papelbon.
I would let one of the young guns go,with cash ,draft picks ,minor leagurer, whatever it takes.
Will it happen I doubt it.

Delcarmen OR Hansen but not both, and not Lester no matter what. I think Atlanta wanted two of them. Pitching is at a premium these days.

I'd love to have Jones here too, but I think in two years that WilyMo will put up 30HR and close to 100 RBIs when he's playing everyday. He'll never have Jones defense though.

Oh yeah, can't trade draft picks in baseball.
