Boston Red Sox
The Boston Red Sox are a Major League Baseball team competing in the Eastern Division of the American League. Their home stadium, Fenway Park, opened on April 20, 1912, making it the oldest major league ballpark still in operation. The Red Sox won the first World Series as the Boston Americans in 1903 against the Pittsburgh Pirates. They won their most recent World Series championship in 2004, after an 86-year interval. The New York Yankees are the Red Sox' chief rival. The Yankees-Red Sox Rivalry has centered around the supposed Curse of the Bambino, and has gained more power with the creation of the Wild Card in 1995 which allowed the two teams to meet in the playoffs. It is one of the longest-standing rivalries in North American sports. Full Article on Wikipedia
Keep Manny Ramirez
The debate, if you really want to call it that, over whether the Red Sox should pick up Manny Ramirez’s options for the next two seasons, seems to have heated up recently. Manny has been in the press for all kinds of “problems” and “issues” lately, from the spat with Youkilis in the dugout, the pushing incident with the Traveling Secretary, and the irrelevant story about him jaywalking in Seattle.

Adding A 50 HR First Baseman
Okay, I have had the issue of too many outfielders on my mind far to long now, so I have decided to work out a solution.Its fairly simple actually and involves just moving one player from Boston, unloading this player shouldn't be too difficult and he has no place in Boston's plans beyond 2007 anyway. You wont get much in return for him, but perhaps just unloading his $9 million salary to clear up space to add Roger Clemens is return enough.

Monday Morning Rundown
J.D. Drew On HoldBoston has yet to finalize the deal with J.D. Drew because of concern over his physical. Drew will get a second opinion today and Boston is working with Boras on contract language that several insiders say could now include a out clause for the Sox as a precaution. Should a dewal not be worked out now, Drew will find it hard to land a deal near what Boston offered and could have trouble landing a deal near what he walked away from in Los Angelas.

Bearlies To Try New Approach: Defense Only
Chicago (INEPT) - The Chicago Bearlies, in the aftermath of a humiliating offensive performance against the mediocre New England Hatriots, have responded with a somewhat radical new strategy: never put the offense on the field."It's quite a simple approach, really," said Lovie "Dovie" Smith, the Bearlies head coach. "We just keep the defense out on the field, at all times."
