| 'Stand Pat' Gillick |
Other than the
Shane Victorino trade, will the Red Sox emulate former Blue Jays GM
'Stand Pat' Gillick and do
nothing more before tomorrow's trade deadline?
Cole Hamels and
Johnny Cueto are off the table, and the Reds are apparently demanding
way too much for the likes of
Mike Leake. So, don't be surprised if the Boston brass start outlining the case for doing nothing more. They could argue that—since 2015 is down the toilet—we might as well go with as many kids as possible (positionally
and in the starting rotation) and see which ones are truly ready for 2016. It's a plausible approach—but probably won't sit well with a fan base that's upping the
'boo-rate' with each new home loss.
