–RED SOX–

I understand the A’s are playing again in Japan (against the M’s, if I remember right). Sure am glad we’re not! Let’s play some BASEBALL already! GO SOX!
I see that Cespedes landed with the A’s. Gotta wonder why Beane signed him to a 4-year deal while unloading several younger pitchers at the sam time. I dunno– go for it, Billy.
I also see that the Pirates have been negotiating with the Yankees about AJ Burnett. If that isn’t “Penthouse to Outhouse”, I don’t know what is. We’ll see. Ouch.
Let’s PLAY BALL, already! GO SOX!
Hi I’m David. I Really enjoyed your blog. It was very well written and interesting. I’m a kid who just started to blog. I’m very new to this and I was wondering if you could check it. Please comment advice. http://wp.me/29yiz
Why don’t the Red sox offer Oswalt a deal that is structured along the following lines:
1. 2012 salary of $5 mil – $9 mil (i.e., whatever they think is palatable).
2. 6 round trips by private jet and helicopter to his home (total cost <$250,000).
3. A renewable team option for 2013, 2014 and 2015 @ $12 mil/year, which the Red Sox can buy out at any time for $2.5 mil.
If Oswalt returns to his prior form the Red Sox have a reasonably priced Ace. If he isn't worth the $12 mil they can buy out for $2.5 mil. This structure allows the Red Sox to add an additional $2.5 mil to their offer to Oswalt, but kicks into the 2013 team salary when it will be more affordable. From Oswalt's perspective it guarantees that in a worst case scenario he will receive an extra $2.5 mil (i.e., over and above whatever the Red Sox are currently prepared to offer).
In addition, the team options for future seasons and the offer to provide round trip private jet service to his home indicate sensitivity to his needs and should flatter his ego.
(Note: the dollar amounts quoted above are purely examples. Their purpose is solely to illustrate the suggested structure).
Go Sox YEA!!!!

WILL SURE MISS YOU WAKE!!!!
