What could Josh Beckett sign for?

In the coming weeks, Josh Beckett and his agent (Michael Moye) will meet with Theo Epstein and brass to discuss an extension.

There’s no way that Beckett sniffs $161 million, let alone $150 million, but I’m here to tell you there’s absolutely no chance Beckett settles for less than $100 million over his total value.

In the end, I’m calling a six-year, $111 million deal for Captain Kickass.

All-Aughts Team of the Decade RF: Trot Nixon

The Red Sox. From 2000 to 2009, have you ever seen such a drastic reversal of fortunes? Regardless if the Yankees (bleh) win the World Series, I can’t see how you don’t anoint the Sawx the team of the decade. Speaking of team of the decade, that’s what we’re doing right here.

We’ve anointed our shortstop of the decade in Nomar Garciaparra. Let’s move on to right field. It rather obviously came down to Trot Nixon versus J.D. Drew, and Nixon took home the honors.
