It's too bad Terry Francona wasn't available, just to fire a shot at the Bosox.
I'm not sold on Melky for 8M/ although it solves that gaping blackhole that has been LF. A big part of Steroid usage is the (even false) confidence it brings from using.
Random thoughts: (haven't been this excited as a fan since...last season)
-Except Buerhle, none of our 4 starts have pitched in big games. How will they cope under the pressure (starting opening day) of being a favorite to win the AL East and go far into the post-season?
- The 2 season's past, we've heard this bullpen is solid, but is it? It hasn't pitched in meaningful games either.
- Will pushing Lind, Lawrie, Rasmus to the 6,7,8,9 spots in the order take the pressure off them and actually see them produce?
- Moises Sierra looked good in his short stint, is that it for him as a Jay with no room left?
- Jay-Rod? Gose, Lawrie for A-Rod?
