I think the Red Sox thus far have just shot themselves in the foot. Chemistry wise these trades are nightmarish. Varitek is gonna be pissed, Lowell is gonna be pissed, youkilis is gonna say wtf, no idea how loyal pitchers are to Varitek, but Schilling worships the guy and says everyone else does likewise. Masterson was a big time piece of their bullpen, and Victor or Kotchman are not additional pieces they are replacment pieces for which offensively they get really only a slight upgrade over Ortiz and Lowell….

and he plays much better defense. Kinda below average at 3B and SS but above average at 2b and all OF positions in his career (bad in CF this year in 7 games so way too small of a sample)

Hey, if Hairston can hit like he did last year in the short time he is here, I will be VERY happy. 127 OPS+
