Boston made an offer to Varitek but no details are available.. the Boston Herald is saying it's a 2 year deal. No info on if he's been approached by any other teams.
It's doubtful that Boston will make an offer to Burnett that tops the Yankees offer. Other than Matsuzaka, they just don't go out on a limb with big contracts or over 4 years with pitchers.
So basically, all eyes are focused on Teixeira now for Theo from what I'm reading. They are also looking at some bullpen guys. Boston really needs some bullpen help.
Boston is looking at Smoltz and I dare say Sheets as well. Smoltz could fit in well at Boston, but I have a feeling Smoltz will end up in Detroit.
And Peavy isn't going to the Cubs.. that deal is DEAD. Hrmm could Peavy be in a Boston uni next season? Door is wide open at this point.
Putz is in a Mets uni which seems like it would work well with K-rod following him.
Edit: I just read that the yankees are considering trading Melky Cabrera to the Brewers for Mike Cameron.
can anyone say Bull in the china shop?
