    Good. I didn’t want him that much anyway. He was just a name FO floated.

    Good for you guys.

    Was hoping that Arizona signed him or that you would sign him to an overpriced contract. Neither happened. Bummer.

    I’m happy for you guys as I want the rivalry to return to the glory days. That being said, once April comes, I’ll hope JD sucks hard and his contract becomes an albatross

    Could be, but my opinion is that Dave upped the offer from $100 to $110 (somewhat of a moral victory for JD), and by doing that, along with the front loaded payouts and opt outs, was enough to get the deal done. JD has to feel like pretty good about the deal, even though it falls well short of what he expected.

    Thanks.

    IMO, this is a good deal for both JD and the Sox.

    It does liven up the rivalry a bit.

    It was a good deal for the Sox, DD played that negotiation just in the edge, everybody is happy because he won, but, what if.....

    Will DD make another move to alleviate the OF/1B/DH logjam?

    I think that it is possible that the A L East could produce one team in the World Series. it's a long season and anything can happen. It should be very interesting. It works for me - I'm looking forward to a great season from a team that at least for now looks substantially improved.

    Hanley appears to be the odd man out.
