    Not a good move by the Sox if they do it.

    They're trading away one of the greatest of all time, in the middle of a pennant race.

    So much for Theo being a boy genius. I'm usually all for trading players for prospects, but come on.

    Manny is playing right now. He wouldn't be in there if a deal was done or even close.

    This is the same guy who traded Nomar and one of our better prospects at the time for a couple of marginal major leaguers.

    Then won the world series.

    Matt Murton was one of your best prospects?

    At the time, he was. Our farm system was terrible when Theo took over.

    I'd love to follow the Marlins more closely, but it feels like they could still leave Florida.

    Currently they're in a long legal battle to build a new (small) Stadium that might open around 2011. It's kind of depressing, and ruins this amazing season for me. Hope it works out.
