Miguel Cabrera to Boston? 

Post#1 » by Jimmy103 » Tue Oct 16, 2007 12:26 am

Lester, Coco, and another upper level prospect for Miguel Cabrera?

If Lowell walks (and I have a feeling another team will give him a handsome pay day) and we pass on A-Rod (hopefully), Miguel Cabrera would be BY FAR the best option for 3B.

Would Florida accept this deal?

Quick answer no Florida would not accept that.

if you put Masterson in there, then we might have something brewing.
it would be certainly be fun to watch him with the wall.
although, id prefer them not to blow ALL there prospects on one player, especially when we could sign him next year.
i just hope he doesnt up in the BX

To get Cabrera, I think the Sox would have to part with both Buchholz and Ellsbury, just my personal opinion though, 24 year old superstars aren't that cheap.

It's so not worth it. If you want him, wait until he hits free agency and hope he is 300 pounds by then.

I'd much rather have him at 1st and move youk to 3rd ;)
"The guy is an idiot," Pedroia said regarding Cabrera. "I dropped my bat. It kind of freaked me out. I was upset they took him out of the game. He is good to hit. He's 9-15. The guy [stinks]."

For a 400 pound player with a poor attitude? I think not. The guy has to lose some weight and get a better attitude. The Sox wouldn't offer both Buccholz and Ellsbury for Johan Santana, so there is no way in hell they do that for Miggy.
