If this goes through, the Dodgers arent going to have a hard time winning the world series. I knew I picked them at the beginning of the season for a reason. Also, inb4 "wahhhhh the dodgers are the new Yankees" crybabies.

This trade upgrades them at 1B. That's it. Maybe Beckett improves, but that's unknown. Crawford won't play until next season.

Still, I'm a big fan of huge ridiculous trades so I approve.

Apparently there may be a protest during today's Rays/A's game, where around 50 people will storm the field. DO IT, PLZ. I wanna see BJ kill a nigga.

I'm fine with Pedroia though. He plays hard, and he publicly said he would play for Valentine. I don't think he's the cancer by any means.

I do give props to the players who went to Pesky's funeral - which was Ortiz, Clay, and Salty (as far as I know they are the only three) and those who didn't kinda suck. Really hope Ortiz finishes his career in Boston. Lester will bounce back, Felix might be better next year, and they NEED to get rid of Aceves. The guy cannot be our closer next year. I wouldn't even let him close open lockers, much less actual games.

I gotta disagree about Aceves, man. While I agree he shouldn't be closer, I think he's a HUGE factor in the bullpen. I've seen something in that guy all the way back to when he was on the Yankees.

And ironically, Padilla showed up to the funeral. PADILLA. Been here one year and he showed up rather than Pedroia/Ellsbury/Beckett/etc guys that have been here a while.

Protest for what?

**WWF** · 08-25-2012, 11:26 AM

Bailey oughta be the Sox's closer next year, no?

Yeah, I'd say it'll be his job.

What are the particulars of this trade? I'm only reading what's going to LA.

I read a comment from a Dodgers fan that said De La Rosa has the potential to a decent pitcher.

Hoping the Sox can sign a new starter in the offseason. Doesn't need to be a big star, just someone dependable.
