On the other side they absolutely fleeced the Cards yesterday!
Allan Craig is a steal!
Craig is one of the most clutch players in the game.
As a righty bat, playing in Fenway, him hitting 20-25 HR with 100 RBI's is more than a possibility, and Joe Kelly is a good, young, back of the rotation guy.
Throw in Cespedes and some of the thunder goes back into the SOX lineup.

despite his Yankees leanings, I gotta agree with Dom...this was all about next season, and beyond...gotta figure the Sox will be big players in the winter for rotation help...and I see Lester back in 20015...

If the Sox wanted Lester they would have signed him? I say zero to no chance he is back for a lot more then they could have gotten him for?

John Henry has said he does not want to sign any long term deals for pitchers over 30.
