Agreed. I would have been OK with that one if they then went out and got Cliff Lee to replace Dice-K.
BTW - I heard that the Sox did offer Lee a "lowball" 7-year contract. It would be immense if they got him too, but I suppose I'm getting greedy. :-) ________________________________ From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Dan DiBiase Sent: Thursday, December 09, 2010 9:11 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: From Boston.com And Thank God this puts an end to the 'Dice-K for Carlos Beltran' nonsense that was getting a lot of play here in NY....

The focus now is on the bullpen. NESN just interviewed Theo yesterday in Orlando and was talking Maggie O in the OF... Theo must have been LOL inside about the questions he was being asked.

I could see standing against the deal in principle, saying the Sox didn't need to overpay for his particular talents. But why worry about Gonzalez? Theo has that figured out already. I'd like a little more pop, but I'm a Crawford fan from way back so I cannot complain. And I'm happy the Red Sox are wearing their big boy pants. I feel like I'm getting a $50 per ticket effort.

He's a terrific player and he'll certainly help them but I can't say I'm thrilled. If he gets this kind of deal, what is Gonzalez worth? Maybe that Liverpool deal is providing new streams of cash... ;P -- Matt ________________________________ From: Tom Salemi <<mailto:[email protected]>[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> To: <mailto:[email protected]> [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Sent: Thu, December 9, 2010 12:18:44 AM Subject: From <http://Boston.com> Boston.com<http://Boston.com> Red Sox to sign Crawford<http://www.boston.com/sports/baseball/redsox/extras/extra_bases/2010/12/red_sox_to_sign.html> A Major League source had told the Globe the deal is for seven years and $142 million.
