It's so strange that they're still after Pablo. Looks like Hanley is either the SS going forward or the LFer going forward which means the Red Sox are dealing one of Betts or Bogearts and I'd guess it's for Hamels. Granted that's if they sign Pablo too.

So who's playing SS for the Yankees? Weren't they going to sign Hardy or Ramirez?

Ian Desmond next year perhaps?

Ramirez has averaged only 121 games over the last 5 years...and the Sawx are going to give him 5 years and $10 million less than Sandoval (which is another strange signing). It must be nice to throw buckets of money at your problems and then casually walk away from your mistakes, without a care in the world.

I'd guess they go with Hanley in LF, Pablo at 3B, Betts at 2b, and Bogearts at SS - not too shabby. Interesting fact - Betts and Bogearts were born 6 days apart. I imagine there will be lots of comps over the years between them and Machado/Schoop.

Did Pedroia die?

Hee. Remember when Big Papi went into that tirade during the 2013 season? in an alternative universe, he did end Pedroia and get a 2 game suspension... which he appealed.

I believe he's making more now that it's reported at 4/88 with a vesting 5th year at another $22m. Adding $42m in annual commitments with no pitching added seems like a lot, even for the sox.

Actually, I wouldn't be surprised if the Sox go after Justin Upton - offering Betts and the great Eduardo Rodriquez. The Sox have several quality lefty pitching prospects.
