Looks like Boston got a catcher. I'm still holding out for Varitek!!//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/mad.gif.c18f003ab0ef8a0d9c27ca78d77a6392.gif

Who did they get?

 

[mr Tibbs 10+ year member]

They got Bard back from the Padres. I'm not thrilled with it, but it's probably better than the guys from triple A.

Bard is actually a pretty good catcher, just not a good bat.

I'm not to worried about the bat at the catcher position. Honestly if he can call games half as good as Varitek I'll be **** happy with the pick up.

Minaya is doing a good job so far

Lowe aint worth no $16 mill a year

Indians got Carl Pavano. Not sure how I feel about that yet. He seems to be a china cabinet.

If healthy, he might be a good #3-4 starter. I could only dream about the numbers he put up in Florida.

Good off-season for the Indians though. I still think we should try to seek out another starting pitcher.

Red Sox signed Baldelli (underrated) and are close to signing Smoltz //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/eek.gif.771b7a90cf45cabdc554ff1121c21c4a.gif

Minaya spoke to Boras about Lowe and Ollie......and Manny as well

.....I could only dream

Red Sox signed Baldelli (underrated)

If he can play somewhat regularly, yes.

 

[Customkilla23]

baldelli was supposed to be the next a-rod a couple years ago, LOL

 

[Slammed 5,000+ posts]

I see him doing .280 20-25 70-75 in 09.....with no major injuries

nothing to say about Smoltz...Savage?
