I scanned the threads looking for something like this but couldn't find it....
I'm seeing this season as a "welllllllllll.... maybe things will break right and we'll be in the thick of the race and could possibly make a mid-season deal to address the glaring weakness (SP, duh!) but likely not".
Pick your win total... I'm going with 79-85, with the Sox staying competitive-ish but clearly lacking something (SP, duh!), and rather than buying, they cut their losses and deal JDM, Workman and other parts.
