If Boston waves Bay good-bye and Matt Holliday is out of reach, which of these established left-fielders would you like to see play the line at Fenway in 2010?
* Garret Anderson
* Marlon Byrd
* Fernando Tatis
* Randy Winn
Jason Bay. Matt Holliday. Jason Bay. Matt Holliday. Matt Holliday. Jason Bay. Jason Bay. Matt Holliday. Matt Holliday. Jason Bay.
Okay, let’s take a break from the two obvious left-fielder candidates and focus on other free agents that could be manning left field for the Red Sox in 2010.
I’m thinking that Theo’s going to give this club another run with a fill-in left-fielder because as comprised, the team is still very good. As comprised, the team can still hit 95 wins — if things go right.
To compete in a transition year, however, we’re going to need a left-fielder that can produce.
Tommy Hanson came into his start against the Red Sox not feeling 100 percent.
Now, I could talk myself into a few of Washington’s pitchers doing better than we’d expect; Cabrera, Zimmerman, Olson. But Cabrera has always had trouble with his control, so expecting him to “get it together” isn’t logical. And Scotty Olsen has some makeup issues as well. Zimmerman is very young, and young pitchers are, well, see: Clay Buccholz, Phil Hughes, Ian Kennedy, Homer Bailey, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc…etc.
Yes, the Sox got swept but I bet everyone else in Red Sox Nation is a bit more worried about if Manny will stay or go.
