This is how I think the 2013 Sox will look

CF Ellsbury
2B Pedroia
1B Napoli
DH Ortiz
RF Swisher
3B Middlebrooks
LF Gomes (cringe)
C Salty
SS Iglesias

SP Lester
SP Bucholtz
SP Lackey (cringe)
SP Doubront
SP Morales (sorta cringe)

I hate the Gomes deal. I'd much rather give Nava and/or Kalish a chance a chance. And I want a SP, but I don't want the Sox to overpay for Sanchez. I'd at least be content with this lineup

Another alternative would be slotting Swisher in a first, signing Ross back to play right, and leaving Napoli to sign with the Mariners

I swear, if during the Winter Meetings the Braves get Justin to play with his brother in Atlanta, and the Phillies sign Angel Pagan, I might cry.

Was about to bring that up. The player is (former) starting LB Jovan Belcher, fyi.

Needless to say, this shocked me when I read it and it is very sad news.

I don't think it was right away but was edited in when they found out. It was officially reported as him a little while ago.

I know that, but his name has been there over an hour. AgentP's post was less than 10 minutes ago

I wasn't sure whether they were 2 separate articles or not.

No, I have a strict allegiance with Thin Mints

Sometime this month, I plan on trading in the last of my XBOX games to GameStop to get more money for PS3 games. I'll be trading in Madden 12, NCAA Football 12, NBA 2K11, MLB 2K10, and possibly Madden 10 and my controller. How much should I expect to receive? I'm thinking probably around $10, but maybe $15 if I get lucky, and then I might get another $10-$15 or so if they take my controller. Are those fair estimations?

I really hope they stay far far away from Swisher. Move to a separate country as Josh Hamilton.
I project
CF Ellsbury (Wish they would trade him,like today.)
2B Pedroia
1B LaRoche (Would really like to see Mark Reynolds here in a cheap one year deal.)
DH Ortiz
3B Middlebrooks (Cant wait until the infield has him and Bogaerts)
LF/RF Gomes (Wanted Ross but what ever.)
C Salty (Maybe Ross,who knows?)
RF/LF Bryce Brentz (Want Grady Sizemore or Brentz/Bradley/maybe Hazelbaker or Hasan if they impress in spring.)
SS Iglesias (Until he hits around .210 in July then Bogaerts,LOVE Iglesias but the poor guy cant hit worth a shit.)

Pitching
SP Lester (If he isnt traded.)
SP Bucholtz
SP Ryan Dempster (Would prefer Sanchez just feel they will sign him)
SP Lackey (Expecting good numbers for a #3 from him)
SP Doubront

Expecting a mildly competitive season!

For all those games? $25 maybe?

I got $150 for all the games I traded back for Wii, most were sports.
