First, I apologize for taking almost a week off from the blog. It was a packed vacation away, and I had a great time. Even if I had decided to take my laptop with me, I don’t think I would’ve had time to write anything. So, for those who follow daily, please accept my apologies.
Second, I am refusing to write about the catastrophe the weekend series against the Jays was. I had very limited cell phone service where I was staying, but the few times I did check the scores to the games, I was a bit embarrassed to be a Sox fan. When the Sox fell below .500 after Monday’s nights’ game, I think the realization for the rest of the season became clear.
A few of my friends and family members who are Red Sox fans are still holding out hope that the Sox can get it going again. They are currently 4.0 games out of a wild card spot, which seems doable with more than two months left. However, there are 7 teams in front of them for the spot, and only three teams in the AL have a worse record (Seattle, Kansas City, and Minnesota). The Sox are currently tied with the Blue Jays.
Yes, a lot can happen in two months. The Sox could go on an amazing winning streak. Our pitchers can remember how to pitch consistently well. Ortiz can heal quickly and hit .350 for the rest of the year. Ellsbury and Crawford could both start hitting around .300 with a combined 50 bases. I think I’ve already posted all this as wishful thinking.
The truth is, the Sox need to make adjustments to this team. Having players come off the DL isn’t enough anymore. There needs to be some changes, and I don’t know if the Sox are willing to make the changes at this point.
The Sox were said to be in on Dempster, Garza, and Hanley Ramirez at one time or another. Ramirez was just traded to the Dodgers. A deal to send Dempster to the Braves is reportedly in place, though he would have to agree to it. Every team seems to be in on Garza. It was reported that the Sox had a scout to watch Greinke last night, but a pitcher with anxiety issues isn’t what the Sox need right now.
The Sox did end up trading Brent Lillibridge to the Indians for right-hander Jose De La Torre. This return may be decent considering De La Torre is 26 and had a 2.91 ERA with 9.4 K/9 and 3.4 BB/9 in 55 2/3 innings for Cleveland's Double-A and Triple-A affiliates this year. There’s at least potential there.
Supposedly, the Sox are scouting Josh Johnson as well, though I haven’t heard a lot of serious talk regarding the Red Sox and Johnson. It seems like the Rangers and the Angels have the most interest.
Personally, I don’t know if the Red Sox have the pieces to make a huge trade that would send them to the play-offs this year. Their talented young players like Middlebrooks and Lavarnway seemed destined to become permanent fixtures at Fenway. Ciriaco and Nava seem to the be two players most likely to go, but I think they’ve both lost stock in the past week.
With less than a week left before the trade deadline, there will be more rumors flying around about who the Red Sox are willing to deal and attain. How many of these rumors will prove to be true is the real question.

Trades In The Making
Nick Cafardo of The Boston Globe tweeted last night that Jacoby Ellsbury is supposed to be activated on Friday and Clay Buchholz on Saturday, and that the Sox are looking to trade an outfielder, preferably Sweeney. We all knew this would be happening, even with the rash of injuries that the Sox have accumulated. Darnell McDonald is now a Yankee, and Youkilis is with the White Sox. Change was going to happen, but how much change will happen is the question.
No doubt that Sweeney makes the most sense for a trade. He’s young, shown a lot of patience at the plate, though he doesn’t have much power. He’s a go-getter with fielding, having crashed into walls more than my liking. Though he’s been on the disabled list twice this year (once on the 7-day DL for a concussion and once on the 15-day DL for his broken toe), he’s remained durable for Sox standards, always returning and ready to play at full-force.
I like Sweeney; he’s an Iowa-boy, afterall. But, with the Sox on the borderline of mediocre and playoff-bound, things need to change. Would it make much sense to send Nava (who’s come back from oblivion) back to Triple-A? No. When Podsednik comes back, it wouldn’t make anymore sense to have him in Triple-A either. My guess is Sweeney and Podsednik will be traded, and possibly Nava too depending on how much faith the Sox have in Kalish.
I was on the MLB Trade Rumors earlier this week, and they were discussing teams in need of outfielders. The Reds were listed as one of these teams, with the Sox lining up nicely with them. (Maybe my uncle is a psychic and predicted a Sox trade with the Reds for Arroyo?) Matt Garza’s name has been floated around a lot to, in terms of potential trade targets for the Sox. The Sox need pitching, so they need to go with who’s available.
I fully admit that I don’t like change; I don’t like the unknown. However, I do know when change is needed, and these Red Sox need a change. The Red Sox bigwigs held a meeting on Monday to discuss the season thus far, and they’re supposed to be making some decisions (are they buyers or sellers?). There’s a team workout scheduled for Thursday, and roster moves could come down then.
There’s also been some chatter about the Sox trying to trade Lester and/or Beckett. I think the theme here is that these two, plus Lackey and Buchholz, seem to have formed an alliance and are still regarded as “card carrying members of the chicken and beer brigade.” Yes, I brought it up. Lester and Beckett are supposed to be the top of the rotation, but their pitching performance seems to be regarded more as mid-to-lower order of the rotation. Lester, without a doubt, is pitching way below his normal caliber; and while Beckett has also struggled, his pitching performance is better than his 4-7 record.
(On a side note, another thing to consider with Beckett is that this is an “even” year, as in 2012. If you look at Beckett’s stats, he seems to do better in “odd” years. Seriously, I don’t know why this is, but it’s true. Next year, he should be back to “normal” Beckett. So, do the Sox trade him? I think not, plus he’d have to approve any trade thanks to 10/5 rights.)
I’m sure there will be much more discussion about trades as the end of the month quickly approaches. My guess is the Sox trade 1-3 outfielders for a starting pitcher, relievers will be traded and traded for, Mark Prior will emerge from Triple-A for the first time since 2006, and the Sox will end the year with a winning record, though still a disappointing season.

What Will the Red Sox Do at the Trade Deadline?
The July 31st trade deadline is approximately 7 weeks away. The Red Sox are currently in last place in the AL East, 2 games below .500, 6.5 games back in the division, and 5.5 games back in the Wild Card race. Yes, 6.5 and 5.5 games out of a playoff race with 100 games left of the season, making the playoffs seems very possible. However, with 5 teams above them in the Wild Card Race, 4 teams above them in the division, things may not be as possible as they seem.
There’s been a lot of discussion in the Red Sox circuits about whether or not the Sox will be buyers or sellers come July 31st. The name that keeps being brought up in the trade whisperings in Kevin Youkilis. I think it’s pretty fair to say that Youkilis’s days as a member of the Red Sox are numbered. Though, his stats aren’t impressive (.219 BA, .303 OBP, 4 HR, 13 RBIs), and it’s already been reported that scouts from other teams aren’t impressed with him and the Sox are asking too much.
The Red Sox need to move Youkilis to allow Will Middlebrooks to play everyday. He’s been one of the brightest sparks on the Sox this year, and he needs to play everyday to get used to the Majors and to get his bat in the line-up. Could Youkilis be packaged with another player to bring in a legitimate starter? It doesn’t look like Bard is going to be back as a starter anytime soon as he surrendered a run in relief the other night. Or, could Youkilis be traded for prospects? Which would benefit this club the best?
I’m really on the fence with whether or not I want the Red Sox organization to throw in the towel this early in the season, but I don’t know if the Sox have a real shot at the playoffs. Besides that, making the playoffs wouldn’t really be the much of an accomplishment, as the Sox have not won a playoff game since 2008. The Sox need to start winning and being a dominate club, get the fans excited to go to the games (besides the fans that live and breath the Sox, much like myself), and start to have the baseball analysts discuss good aspects of the team rather than the bad.
Next year, I think we’ll see a team with Lavarnway behind the plate, possibly as a back- up catcher to Saltalamacchia who will teach Lavarnway the ropes like Varitek did for him. Jose Iglesias will be the starting shortstop; the Sox really need an anchor in that position. For years, shortstop has been a non-stop revolving door. Middlebrooks will be at third base, and Ryan Kalish will be the starting right-fielder. Until then, what the Red Sox do with their players is a big question mark.
The Sox need to get younger; and to do that, they need to get rid of their older players. There are some players that I feel are untouchable, besides the up-and-comers I’ve already mentioned: Pedroia, Ortiz, Gonzalez, Crawford, Beckett, and Lester. Pedroia and Ortiz are the heart-and-soul of the Red Sox, in my opinion. Pedroia is the unofficial captain, and Ortiz has already said he wants to retire with the Red Sox after next year. Red Sox- let him. He’s done more for this organization than any other player on the team (besides possibly Pedroia). Crawford and Gonzalez’s contracts are too much and too early into them to trade either; and besides that, Crawford is currently on the DL. Beckett has 10/5 rights and would need to approve any trade, which I don’t think he’d do. Also, I think Beckett’s more of a leader in the clubhouse than he gets credit. The Boston Globe today stated how Beckett taught Buchholz a split-finger fastball before Buchholz’s start on May 16th against the Rays and it’s been working for Buchholz. Lester, while struggling as of late, has been the Sox’s most consistent pitcher the past few years.
With those players mentioned, Ellsbury, Bailey, Lackey, Jenks, Hill, Cook, and possibly Ross are all virtually unmovable because of currently being on the disabled list. Ross is supposed to start a rehab stint this weekend, so he should be back soon. The others are all basically stuck in limbo at the moment.
Players with the most trade value, in my opinion: Sweeney, Saltalamacchia, Nava, Podsednik, Aviles, Doubront, Buchholz, and really anyone in the bullpen. I don’t think the Sox will trade Buchholz, since he’s been pitching well, and they need pitching. I really doubt the Sox will trade Salty, since he’s been outstanding for the team this year and is still relatively young. As much as I don’t want to see them go, Sweeney and Aviles are the key candidates here and could really bring back the most for the Sox, again in my opinion. If the Sox are really wanting to make a go at it this year, Sweeney would be the logical one to part with, as he’s a left-handed outfielder and the team has a plethora
of outfielders at the moment.
The other trade candidates would be: McDonald, Punto, Shoppach, and Matsuzaka. If the Sox trade Matsuzaka, it would be the ultimate admission that the money the organization spent on him was a waste (in my opinion, it was). The other three are dispensable, unfortunately.
The Red Sox have some tough choices to make in the next few weeks. I’m sure much of their decisions will be hindered by which players finally make it off the disabled list, and of those players, who makes a difference (positively) on the team. This is for sure, the Red Sox team we see take the field tonight will not be the same Red Sox team we see take the field in two months.

Keep Him or Trade Him?
There’s been a lot of talk lately about whether or not the Red Sox will be buyers or sellers at the trade deadline. Personally, I think it’s way too early to discuss this since it’s only a month and a half into the season, and things will start to settle in another month or so. If the Red Sox continue to play like they did this weekend, they will be buyers. If they continue to play like they have the past week or so, they will be sellers.
But, in the spirit of debate, I thought I would make my own Keep Him or Trade Him post and give my reasoning behind my thoughts on each player. Feel free to chime in if you want because I do like a good debate.
Jon Lester (P)- Keep Him
Lester’s struggled this season (1-3, 4.29 ERA), but he is the Ace of the pitching staff. Even when he struggles, the fans love him (unlike Beckett). The Red Sox are behind him 100%, and he really seems to take responsibility when he doesn’t pitch well. He’s gotten better the deeper into the season, which is what he typically does. The Sox will definitely keep Lester.
Josh Beckett (P)- Keep Him
Honestly, I don’t know how the Red Sox can trade Beckett; he has 10/5 rights, which means he can veto any trade. He’s signed through 2014 as well, and his contract is too much for most of the teams (signed a 4yr/$68 million contract in 2010). Unless the Red Sox eat most/all the contract, there’s no way their moving him. Besides, Beckett can be effective when his mind is in the game, which is what the Red Sox need at the moment.
Clay Buchholz (P)- Trade Him
I don’t know how much Buchholz is worth on the market, but I think the Red Sox need to trade him. The team has Matsuzaka coming in the next week or so, which means they’ll either need to get rid of a starter, move a starter, or go with a six-man rotation. Surprisingly, Buchholz leads the team with wins (4), but he has a grotesque 8.31 ERA. He hasn’t looked sharp in any of his starts thus far. Buchholz needs to be moved either to the bullpen, Triple-A, or to another team.
Felix Doubront (P)- Keep Him
The Red Sox will keep Doubront because he’s effective and cheap ($484K this year). He’s only 24, and if he keeps pitching like he did on Saturday, he’ll become an important member of the Red Sox pitching staff for years to come. He’s a lefty with a 3-1 record and a 4.46 ERA thus far. Sure, he’ll be worth a lot on the open market, but I think the Sox need to keep him.
Daniel Bard (P)- Keep Him
Bard is becoming one of the efficient pitchers on the Red Sox staff. He’s pitched well as a converted reliever (3-4, 4.30 ERA), and he’s filled in as a reliever once this year. He’s too valuable as a starter and a reliever for the Red Sox to get rid of him. He stays.
Daisuke Matsuzaka (P)- Keep Him
Matsuzaka has not pitched in the Majors this year, though he should be coming to the rotation in the next week or two. He’s on the final year of a 6 year contract. At the moment, he doesn’t have much trade value, and he hasn’t really been that great over the years. Matsuzaka could fill in nicely as a #5 starter for the rest of the season (moving Doubront and Bard up a notch, not that it matters). Besides, he’s owed $10 million this year, which is huge.
Jarrod Saltalamacchia (C)- Keep Him
I’m saying keep Salty simply because Varitek pretty much groomed him last year. The pitching staff is obviously suffering without having Tek behind the plate, but Tek taught Salty. They need to keep Salty. Offensively, Saltalamacchia is hitting .250 with 7 doubles, 5 home runs, and 15 RBIs.
Kelly Shoppach (C)- Trade Him
I’m only thinking that the Red Sox should trade Shoppach so Lavarnway can come up. I’ve enjoyed watching Shoppach play this season, and I think he’s done a great job behind the plate. But, Lavarnway is the future, and it might be time for the future to happen. We’ve already seen a resurgence at third base with Middlebroooks, so maybe it’s time for the catcher position.
Adrian Gonzalez (1B), Dustin Pedroia (2B), David Ortiz (DH)- Keep Him
I combined Gonzalez, Pedroia, and Ortiz because I don’t see even trade talks happening about these three players. Gonzalez is in the first year of his contract, Pedroia is the de facto captain, and Ortiz wants to finish his career with the Red Sox. Besides, these are arguably the three most valuable players on the team. Not happening.
Mike Aviles (SS)- Keep Him
I admit, I was a bit wary after the Sox traded Marco Scutaro in the offseason. I wasn’t ready for Iglesias to take over short (and he’s obviously not ready), and I wasn’t sure what Aviles was capable of. Well, Aviles has filled in nicely at shortstop and taken over lead-off for the majority of the season. He’s currently hitting .261 with five home runs. Iglesias is not ready for the Majors, so the Red Sox need to keep Aviles.
Kevin Youkilis (3B)- Trade Him
It hurts me to put that into words, but it may be time for the Red Sox to depart with Youkilis. Middlebrooks has filled in wonderfully for Youkilis in the past week and a half; and though it’s still early, I can’t see how the Red Sox could put Youkilis back in the line-up with Middlebrooks in the Majors. Youkilis stock is obviously down, but in a package with Buchholz possibly, he would be one of the most obvious trade chips.
Ryan Sweeney (OF)- Keep Him
Sweeney has been one of the great surprises on this Red Sox team so far. He’s hitting .333 with 13 doubles, 1 triple, and 11 RBIs. He’s being paid $1.75 million this year, which is very affordable. I think the Sox need to keep Sweeney around until they either have a legitimate right-fielder (when Kalish re-emerges possibly) or see how he does full-time. He’s only 27, and he’s done pretty well leading off lately too.
Jacoby Ellsbury (OF)- Keep Him
If I had my way, I would try and sign Ellsbury long-term before he becomes a free agent in 2014 (though his agent is Scott Boras, so not sure how that will happen). He’s not a viable trade chip right now because of the injuries. When he’s on the field, Ellsbury is one of the most exciting players on the Red Sox team. He’s not good for a quote (like Pedroia), but after last season, his record-breaking steals season, and the steal of home against the Yankees a few years ago, Ellsbury is that piece of the puzzle that the Red Sox can’t afford to lose.
Carl Crawford (OF)- Keep Him
Crawford won’t be trade for a few reason: he’s on the DL, he had a bad year last year, and he’s owed too much on his contract.
Marlon Byrd (OF)- Trade Him
Byrd’s done well since coming over from the Cubs. He’s hitting .281 with the Red Sox and has been a good defender. However, once Ellsbury and/or Crawford come back, he’s expendable. The Sox will need to make room for the outfielders they have, and Byrd seems to be the odd-man-out.
Cody Ross (OF)- Keep Him
Ross seems to be that spark this season. When he hits a home run, he crushes it (over the Green Monster on a few occasions). He has five home runs this season and 23 RBIs. He has a great personality, and the Red Sox got him fairly cheap (1 yr/ $3 million). Again, once Ellsbury and/or Crawford return, Ross and Sweeney platooning at right, like what was supposed to happen, will make his numbers go up even more. Keep him.
Darnell McDonald (OF)- Trade Him
Darnell McDonald is one of my favorite players to follow on Twitter. He has a great and positive personality. McDonald plays Again, once Ellsbury and/or Crawford return, people need to move. Unfortunately, it may be time to see goodbye to McDonald.
Nick Punto (IF)- Trade Him
Punto is a utility player, but he hasn’t done much. He was something like 0-22 before getting a hit this weekend. He’s hitting .147. I’m not sure how much the Red Sox could get for him, but hopefully an effective arm in the bullpen would be sufficient.
Will Middlebrooks (3B)- Keep Him
The Red Sox will be keeping Will Middlebrooks unless they get desperate. The Red Sox need to get younger as a team, and this is the way they do it. Middlebrooks has been a spark on an otherwise dull team this year, and he seems to carry the team at times. The Red Sox will keep him.
Those are the major players in the Keep Him or Trade Him category, plus a few prospects and relief help. My list would be a little too long and meaningless if I went into all those players, since any of the prospects and relief help would be trade bait. We’ll have to wait and see what Cherington decides to do.
