I know it's still early in the hot stove season , but I'm concerned.
It's not the money it's the years. The Sox were willing to pay 60 mil for four years. Bays agent broke it off he wants 5 years, Bays a good player but not a great player, A average left fielder at best, he hit a career high 36 homers Fenway Park was kind to him.
I hate to see him go , but Cameron age 36 will be a upgrade defensively,and still has some pop in his bat?
Theo is not done yet something still has to be done in the infield ?
