The Sox in '06

Well hopefully some time on Halloween we will see Theo signed up to a new three (plus) year deal allowing the team to concentrate on what they actually need to do to compete in 2006... While Theo strikes me as an excellent GM, I am hoping that his deal isn't quite as long as this former New Englander's deal - I guess first impressions do count in Indiana!

This site does a nice job of breaking down the free agents by position and of detailing what a mediocre FA class the various GM's will be picking from this year - although my guess would be that this simply means that we will see more 'big name' trades this winter than we have seen for a while.
