Red Sox roster predictions
So what do we expect now? Jeremy Reed? Manny in LF per usual? Oh yeah, and we need a SS too.

Re: Red Sox roster predictions
Here are some things I'd like to see happen:
I'd like to keep Manny. I'd like to keep Arroyo rathern than Beckett or Clement. The past couple years NL pitchers have done terrible in the AL, and AL pitchers have done very well in the NL. I'd rather keep the AL guy. Julio Lugo would be a good option for SS. |

I think the Sox just became the third best team in the East. Merry Christmas, Meddler, nice hat.

Are you kidding me? As long as Manny, Ortiz, and Varitek remain the cornerstone of the lineup, and Schilling is healthier than he was last year, the Sox will have everyone save the Yanks in their rearview mirror. The Blue Jays and Orioles, try as they might, are still years away from competing with the Sox and Yankees, and the Devil Rays may never have a hope. We've gone through this every year for the past 3-4 years now. The Yankees make a big splash in the offseason trade market, everyone in Red Sox Nation panics and thinks this is the year the Yankees run away with the division with 150 wins, and every year the Sox remain highly competitive all the way to the very end, and the Yankees find a way to blow $200M+. I expect this year to be no different. |

Re: Red Sox roster predictions
espn says 2.4m for beckett, 1.85 for arroyo.
clement is 6.5, which shows you how out of whack these things can get. ive never looked closely at the sox payroll all together, i knew ortiz did not earn much but i didnt know that trot nixon earns 8m, renteria earns 7, and ortiz earns 5.2. |

Re: Red Sox roster predictions
I really like the Sox bullpen pickups. Mota and Seanez are solid.
