Im not sure how I feel about this. I dont follow baseball as closely as many in here, but my perception is that Arroyo has been very solid for the Red Sox. Is it worth getting an awesome CF to give this guy up? I have no opinion to be honest, just trying to see what the better informed think about the prospect of some deal revolving around a reed for arroyo.

IMO...it all depends.

One can easily make the case that the Sox have an excess of starting pitching after their latest signing, BUT.....it's probably much more prudent to wait for spring training to see how it all shakes out.

We really don't know yet how well Schilling is going to be able to rebound. If he rounds back into his old form, then the Sox have two legitimate #1 starters.....maybe.

That might make Arroyo expendable.

Personaly, I wouldn't want to see him go, as his stuff is excellent, and he has (IMO) a significant upside. The Sox have a history of giving up on pitchers too early.

Again....let's see what happens.
