The Red Sox are leaving the bullpen fences where they were:
Unless and until I’m told otherwise, I’m going to assume that it was all a big scam designed to lure Carl Crawford, who desperately wanted a short porch, and now that he’s signed, they’re pulling the rug out from under him.
Indeed. Looks like there are evil geniuses in the Boston front office. 🙂
My bet is that because A-Gon is still unsigned beyond 2011, having him on pace to break the HR single season record at Fenway would driven his price up.
A close second is that Wayback Wheeler needs help keeping the ball in the park, especially against the Yankees (6 HR in 5 1/3 IP over the past 2 years). Beckett too.
Anyways, I am glad the fences stay where they are, no matter who gets the credit (or blame).
