Considering Crisp had shoulder surgery, I wouldn't feel that good about his prospects. I'd rule out Pierre because he's got two years left on his contract. I'd feel best about Crisp because he would be a good defensive replacement, but I'd only want one year of him. So it could be Pods by default. Pods > Pierre, I know that much.

He's a liability in the field and has only come close to average once in his career with the Yankees (-2.2 in 2006). If playing the field is a requirement and someone else will give him that chance then let him go somewhere else. I think there's a fair chance the Sox end up with one of Podsednik, Pierre, or Crisp. Assuming a similar price of 3-4 mil. for each of them (a trade for Pierre would include money), who do you take? Also, although they are all below league average in throwing, who has the best arm of the three? I want Matsui, but as a DH.

He wants a team that'll put him in the outfield, probably because he's getting one-year offers, and wants to position himself for a better payday after 2010. But I'm thinking the Sox would be better off trying to get everything they can out of Andruw Jones in a corner to shore up the D. The Matsui dance is interesting.

Quentin for 3 years vs Crawford for 1, im banking on quentin coming back strong and would rather not make that move. Tampa surprised by the asking price on Jenks (HAHA SHOCKER) the rays may be the most unrealistic teams in the league to trade with. And if they noticed 7 or 8 mil for Billy Wagner and even the Brad Penny 7.5 mil deal, do nothing to hurt Jenks's value. Putz and Thornton a bromance, thats hilarious
