I came across this post today by Dan Tobin at Bugs & Cranks and had to share. It’s just that good.
While reading one of my half a dozen favorite rumor blogs, I realized two of the top free agent prizes this year are 2004 Boston postseason heroes Manny Ramirez and Derek Lowe. Then I realized Pedro and Schilling are out there, too. It made me wonder, What’s the best team you could assemble out of free agents who’ve played for the Sox? Here’s what that team would look like, along with their crowning Red Sox achievement. Players with an asterisk were 2004 world champions. Can you believe an enterprising GM could sign 13 of ’em? (14 if you include Nomar, who got a ring.)
I encourage you to head over to Bugs & Cranks for the list. I won’t steal their thunder. Great Post!
