If they can get a couple other guys signed like this, like Youkilis and Lester, they will be set for a long, long time.
Ain't gettin' Tex, though  |
yes the Pedroia deal is brilliant. That's what happens when Theo is in charge.
I think they are waiting on signing Youk to something similar until after they see what they need to do with Tek and Tex. If they sign Tex, then they'll ship Lowell off and sign Youk to a 5 or 6 year contract and keep him at third base and keep Tex at first.
I almost fainted when you said that Pedroia was the best second baseman in the AL
