Like we needed to be reminded! According to WEEI.com, the latest from Yawkey Way is that the Red Sox are "not close on anything" regarding either free agents or trades. Apparently, this is to calm the masses who have been on the edge of their seats with all the hot rumors. The Red Sox continue to dole out the Kool-Aid by reminding us that they've picked up the likes of David Ortiz and Adrian Beltre in post-Christmas periods past. That's true, but they also locked up Curt Schilling over Thanksgiving dinner in the desert. This "patient" approach might be acceptable if there were one or two minor holes to fill. But we're talking Big Dig Sinkhole-sized voids here.
