Sox scouting Jarrod Saltalamacchia

Q&A with the Globe's Tony Massarotti
The Boston Globe's Tony Massarotti was kind enough to answer some questions from us at Over The Monster regarding everything and anything Red Sox. Massarotti has been covering the Red Sox since 1994 when he was with the Boston Herald. In September, Massarotti made a move to the Globe where he has...
Friday poll
I got into a discussion about what sort of "sweetener" the Rangers would have to include with Saltalmacchia to get the BoSox to part with Clay Buchholz, and I suggested it would have to be someone like Michael Main... Which made me think...what do you guys think? Salty and Main for Buchholz...who...
Saturday morning stuff
Mike Maddux arrived yesterday, and there is some buzz this morning about what he means for the Rangers... Evan Grant says Maddux's approach is less about the mechanics and more about the mental side of pitching, with Jon Daniels says that Maddux is more "tactician than technician." This is,...

Perrotto on BoSox and Rangers

Evan Grant with some notes from the GM meetings
Evan Grant has some bloggy notes up from the GM meetings. He says he's popular, because all the other writers want to know what the Rangers are going to do with their catching situation, and he offers a ranking of the current four in terms of the Rangers desire to hang onto them. There's also an...
Speculation on a Yanks/Rangers trade
WasWatching has a blog post up, contemplating the possibility of a Philip Hughes for Jarrod Saltalamacchia trade... I'd be all about that, and WW would like to see the Yanks make that deal.
