    I see Sheets and Prior ahead of Santana. People seem to have forgotten about prior after last year too.

    I'm sorry, but I'd take Santana over Sheets by far. I'm not sure about Prior yet; we'll see how he rebounds from his disappointing season last year. But Santana has dominating stuff, has had success for a couple years in a row, and as a lefty, has that much more value. Sheets as well has unquestionably great stuff, but the jury's still out on his makeup, and we need to see if he can duplicate last season. Not that I wouldn't joygasm all over the place if the Sox acquired him
    I have no sig. Sue me.

    I read on the Brewers website, that Sheets would be satistfied if the Brewers offered him a contract similar to the contract Johan Santana recieved. Talk about a bargain for both clubs (Minnesota and Mliwaukee) if they could get both pitchers to sign for similar deals.

    I read the story on Sheets in this month's ESPN, and he seems like he'd be a perfect fit for the sox clubhouse as well. It seems like he's out their to have fun as well as compete.

    Mel would corrupt him anyway.

    Sheets wouldn't be that pressured in New York, he's a real team player, and doesn't take the game too seriously, he'd be perfect for the Sox. But it won't matter because Sheets is going to resign with the crew.

    Yeah, I think he likes it there. But I know George will try and trade the farm for him near the deadline.

    The Yankees really couldn't make a trade for him, and I wouldn't be stunned at all if the Jays make a run at him. Espically with that owner giving them the thumbs up to spend some money.

    Looking at farm systems though

    1, Angels (if they want Sheets they'll most likely get him, but they wouldn't deal any of the players to land Johnson, so I doubt they'll do it now)

    2. Jays (Aaron Hill, Dave Purcey, Zach Jackson they got some players to move)

    3. Red Sox ( Hanley, Papelbon, and maybe someone else might get it done.)

    4. Yankees (Duncan, and Ching Min Wang???!) Not pretty

    That would be far and away the best rotation in baseball, I dont care what anyone else says. We'd have to give up A LOT to get him though, because you can bet your ass Steinbrenner will find some way to interfere.

    Ok Im a huge red sox fan but, Ive been at a good amount of Spring Training games and Wells looks like CRAP. Even the outs he gets are hit incredibly hard. I wouldnt be suprrised if Wells goes 10-14 this year (But knowing Wells he could possibly go 16-14, so any predictions are kinda big guesses). And as for Clement, he has certainly not been impresive at all!
