		<description>Interesting that the only recent Sox power displays have been from Lowrie and Green; and that some of the best defense has also come from these two.  Let&#039;s not focus on SS.

		<description>Cardinals mused about shipping Chris Duncan to the Sox for Lugo. Not a bad idea, but I think with the LaRoche move, we&#039;re full up in outfield/corner infield. The focus needs to move to shortstop.

		<description>Theo needs to try and get something for Julio Lugo, he is worthless to the Sox, but he may be worth some low-mid level prospect from another team in contention looking for a little infield depth.

		<description>The Sox just need a big bat in their line up a slugger like Julio Lugo would fit in just right.. Maybe we could pick him up.

		<description>Well, this was timely. Wonder what we are giving up for LaRoche.

		<description>You make excellent points.   The Sox lineup is demonstrably potent, an excellent offense, but slumping and inconsistent.  To improve it doesn&#039;t mean trading out for a potentially potent but slumping or inconsistent replacement.
I take it your Friday list will be an &quot;A&quot; list of players who could help now without tearing out the core of the team and the core of the farm.
