Mirrabelli Loretta

Can I get a hell yeah Dougieozz? [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Loretta projects to produce 35.8 BRAR and Mirrabelli 5.3 BRAR which makes this yet another great deal for the red sox. Gets a lot of his OBP from walks, and appears to be a normal fielder based on UZR stats I saw that were unofficial.

of course wakefield needs a new caddy (or tek will take him and someone else will take someone else etc)

i mean, WOW!

Loretta is a gamble to bounce back but there is really little downside to this deal. Pretty amazing that they kept Boomer and now can still deal him for somebody else. Locking in Loretta also gives us a lot more flexibility if they potentially want to deal Renteria now. I really like the idea now of flipping Renteria to the Braves for Marte and signing a cheap SS, leaving open the possibility of breaking in Pedroia.

The four headed front office is looking pretty good right now.

The rumors of Renteria in a three-way deal that netted Julio Lugo didn't sound too bad either.

'sounds' like the deal has a very good chance of happening.

Per rotoworld, the Sox will pay roughly $11M of the $29M owed to Edgar. And they intend on keeping Marte rather than flip in another deal.

WTF? This is insane. I don't get it.

I wish I was a Red Sox fan.
