While I wish my second appearance on 98.5 The Sports Hub was ripe with analysis of a potential Game 5 in Anaheim instead of eulogizing the Red Sox season and looking forward to 2010, it’s always fun to talk Red Sox with Toucher & Rich.

To summarize; I like Alex Gonzalez at SS for one more year and have been talking myself into Matt Holliday over Jason Bay (but I reserve the right to change my mind again). While the words Joe Mauer were referenced in relation to Mike Silver’s latest post, I still see Mauer staying in Minnesota or getting the world from New York….but I too like to dream.
