Is Craig Breslow a free agent ? if he is, i really hope the sox keep him, he wasnt bad at all last year
Breslow doesn't have the time in the ML to be a ML free agent, as of now he is on the Sox's 40 man roster, however i would said that his chances of making the Sox 25 man roster out of Spring training isn't better than 50-50.
How about Hansack? What's his place? AAA, long relief?
Hansack is on the 40 man roster so he will be with the organization next year. He may win a long relief role in spring training but may begin 2007 in Pawtucket.
According to BA Sox's 2006 34th round pick LHP Brian Morgado who didn't sign with the Sox and its attending the University of Tennessee had TJ surgery and will Red Shirt his first year year in college.
The Red Sox have signed minor free agent RHP Adam Bernero. Bernero who will be 30 yrs at the end of the month pitched in the Phillies and Royals system in 2006. Bernero pitched most of the 2005 season in Atlanta. Bernero has pitched as a reliever and as a starter.
The Red Sox have released Dominican OF Moises Santa. The release in my opion isn't talent related, Santa has had a few issues the last couple of years and may not had been matured enough.
Interesting guy. His 2005 RA was 6.70 but his FIP was 3.62 and xFIP was 4.18. Must not get along with the other guys on the team that well.Originally Posted by scaffolds;204478;
or it is because he flat out sucks and has had a chance to win a spot everywhere he has gone.Originally Posted by Bosoxwest;206233;
Could be that. Considering he's almost a mortal lock to spend the entire year on the farm, it doesn't really matter. He's just stat fodder.Originally Posted by jacksonianmarch;206444;
Bernero is what he is a filler, it will have to be an emergency for him to be called to the ML.
