If we do trade Danks that will give the Sox more money to sign Ellsbury.
My lineup for next season 1 Ellsbury CF 2 Semien 2B 3 Garcia RF 4 Abreu 1B 5 Dunn DH 6 Lawrie 3B 7 Viciedo LF 8 AJ C 9 Ramirez SS |

You think there's a team out there that's going to take Danks and the money?

There was a team out there that took Rios and his money.

Rios wasn't nearly as bad as Danks last year, doesn't have major health questions, and is owed $12 million over 1 year whereas Danks is owed more than $40 million over the next 3 seasons. Not very comparable situations.

What's with the fascination with Ellsbury? When he's healthy he's awesome and might be the best leadoff hitter in the game. But he just turned 30, he does have health issues, and he's going to get a 5-7 year deal that pays him $15 - $20 million a year. No thanks. I don't want the Sox signing any more guys over 30 to long term deals.

On top of that, Rios was having a pretty good season, is healthy, and with Nelson Cruz getting that suspension, he filled a need.

Agreed, I think Hahn specifically mentioned at Abreu's press conference that the Red Sox went from 93-loss laughingstock in 2012 to the cusp of the World Series this year by adding mid-level veterans and not making a sexy big-name splash.

I wouldn't give up on Danks yet. I saw enough positive last year to think that he might pitch well once he is two years removed from surgery. We'll see.

Oh, I agree, I am more high on Danks having a good bounce back season probably than anybody else on this board, I just don't think someone is going to come along and take him and his contract off our hands.

I wasn't expecting Danks to have a great year last season. I am hopeful he regains his form this season.

Hopeful is one thing. Expecting it should be quite another. As mentioned, no one has ever successfully come back from his surgery without further complication.

Agreed. Not after the season he had.

But those numbers for Sergio this September look great. (he wasn't tired) One has to conclude that Kenny didn't maximize his return from those assets. On field management of the talent has to be blamed as well.
