The Sox have been trying to dump Lowell ever since they got him.

Poor Red Sox. Maybe the Yankees could even things up and sign a guy like Rollie Fingers?

Yeah. Bringing back old azz pitchers is a GREAT idea. How about the Sox sign Randy Johnson or maybe Roger Clemens or Mike Mussina?

Oops!! The Spankees already did that.

Wow, impressive move by the Sox. They signed an old over the hill pitcher to go with their two other old over the hill pitchers and an outfielder who's always hurt

We're just taking a page out of the Yankees play book I guess.

The difference is that they are filling out a bullpen that already includes TWO great YOUNG starting pitchers and THE BEST closer in ALL of baseball.

I was in shock when I heard it yesterday. Now I bet wren and co overpay for lowe. But we have the money and we need a #1 starter.

The Sox don't have Rivera

I guess they needed to do something now that the Yanks have four of the best young arms in baseball

You're making me laugh.

Rivera is SO over the hill. He's about as scary as a little girl in a ballerina costume at this point in his career. Always remember, it's not important how you start. Only how you finish the game.

The Red Sox have PLENTY of young pitching. I just think they have 2 or 3 of the BEST young pitchers. The Spankees do have four young pitchers on their roster I'll give you that.
