John Smoltz - playing for the Red Sox?!

Texiera might be a good hitter, but I don't think I'd want to give up Youk for him. It's a non-issue anyway, since he's a yankee now, but I'd take Youk over Lowell, if for no other reason than the 5 years age difference. Add in the flexibility Youk has, and he's a clear winner. You think Lowell would be able to pop over to 1st base with no problems whatsoever? Me neither.
