Ruth Was TRADED...can't fault him for that
Clemens went to Toronto for 2 years before landing in New York.....and Beside Duquette made the statement that Clemens was "In the twilight of his Career" 
Boggs left because Scott Cooper was Going to be "Da Man"...and not for nothing he wasn't exactly tearing the cover off of the ball after he left.
and thats just the nature of Baseball now-a-days.....try and name 10 players in the league who have actually stayed with there team for 10 years or more...you'd be lucky to name a dozen |

At least we will not have to see that idiotic segment on NESN "In style."with his wife. Man that drove me nuts. It will be interesting seeing Damon cover center as he was diving all the time in Fenway, not to mention they'll need the entire infield to relay his throws. I guess anybody on second has a freebie to home. Hate to see him go but such is the way of baseball today. Makes me miss Yaz all the more.

Basically, with him and Matsui in the outfield, anyone on second can crawl home, and other teams will be going first-to-third all day long on anything hit to center. It's a big centerfield out there, much bigger than Fenway, and Matsui is almost as big a butcher defensively in left as Manny.
Is Damon gonna take two years off Randy Johnson and make him into the Big Unit again instead of the Big Eunuch? Mussina shows signs of slipping, too. Is he gonna transform Carl Pavano and Jared Wright into Cy Young candidates instead of career .500 pitchers? They still have lots of pitching issues to address  |

I'm beginning to think the thought process of Steinbrenner and the Boys on this one is "If we can't make our team better than we can make the Sox that much Weaker"
You're right about the pitching, they weren't Playoff caliber last year....and they are now a year older.
