Hot Stove!

« on: October 18, 2009, 01:19:27 AM »

The MLB season is over for some of us, so what off season moves do you think should be made for your teams?

As a Red Sox fan, here is my hopeful 25 man roster come opening day.

Starting Lineup:
1:CF- Ellsbury
2: 2B- Pedroia
3: C- Martinez
4: 1B- Youkilis
5: SS- Tejada/ Ojeda (Augie would bat 9th.)
6: LF- Bay
7: DH- Ortiz
8: RF- Drew
9: 3B- Lowell

Bench:
IF- Lowrie/ Green/ Gonzalez
C- Varitek
OF- Baldelli/ Reddick
OF- Gathright

Rotation:
1- Beckett
2- Webb
3- Lester
4- Buchholz
5- Matsuzaka

Bullpen:
Ramirez
Bard
Okajima
Zavada
Beimel
Papelbon

Trades involving a combo of Michael Bowden, Lars Anderson, Manny Delcarmen, and Junichi Tazawa, and one or two other lower level prospects, and cash take place bringing Zavada, Webb, and Ojeda, or no Ojeda and we trade for Tejada. Joe Beimel gets picked up, Baldelli is brought back, Bay re-signs, and if Gonzalez's option isn't picked up, we run with Lowrie or Green as backup SS. I don't think hoping for this is a long shot, or absurd by any means.

Creed's idiocy and lack of reading skills aside, it's what Barone says.

I fear the end of an era, I think Captain Varitek will be gone. Big Papi will be gone after next season.

David Ortiz's time has come and gone. I wouldn't mind having Tejada DH. He's aged 4 years in the last 2, which doesn't help his case to start at short. I wouldn't mind getting Mark Reynolds from the D-backs, either.

I'm not too sure the astros will trade Tejada. They have enough talent to make the playoffs next year, and I think if they're going to unload it will be at the trade deadline.

But anyway, he's my hopeful for the Indians ( i don't really know if any are free agents or what's happening with choo and the korean army, so don't yell at me)

1. CF Sizemore
2. SS Cabrera
3. RF Choo
4. DH Hafner
5. 3B Peralta
6. 1B Marte
7. C Santana (hopefully)
8. 2B Valbuena
9. LF Brantley

Bench

IF Carroll/Gimenez/ Marson
C Shoppach/Toregas
OF Laporta/Crowe

Rotation
1. Carmona
2. Laffey
3. Westbrook
4. Huff
5. Masterson

Bullpen
Smith
Reyes
Carrasco
Lewis
(insert randoms)
Wood

Pretty much just a rebuilding year and giving some prospects some innings. No trades or anything needed. Hopefully carmona can bounce back and be a true ace.

I tried to go on like I never knew you
I'm awake but my world is half asleep
I've prayed for this heart to be unbroken
But without you all I'm going to be , incomplete
