Holy sh*t, this was surprising when I logged on to boston.com this am! Unlike some others, I am not a huge Crawford fan, I would have preferred Werth (but not for 7 years, $126 million). And I am really amazed that the Sox took on 2 long-term, big money
contracts this off-season. Really surprised. And a little concerned as, has been noted, much of Crawford's game revolves around speed, so what is that going to look like when he's 35? And I wonder if that means that Ellsbury would be on the trading block, and for whom? But I am certainly going to enjoy it over the next few years! And I can only imagine if the Sox starting rotation pitches to their abilities next year....
