    This is absolutely bananas. Now I get Beckett and Crawford, but Gonzalez? Sure his power is down, but he had some really good numbers last year and is not having a terrible year.

    salary dump

    Gonzalez, Beckett & Crawford have about $275M left on their deals - $261M after '12.

    This is pretty big support for Valentine from the Red Sox, right?

    Like I said, I get the Beckett and Crawford dumps, but I still don't get Gonzalez. He is by far the most likely to live up to that money.

    I'm guessing the sox are forcing LA to take crawford if gonzalez is included. otherwise why would LA want crawford????/

    dodgers desparetly need a 1st baseman...we'll take crawford/beckett just to get agon

    besides de la rosa, we're not giving up much but taking on a lot of $$$ but we've got that covered with the upcoming tv deal

    Red Sox will be in the clear with money but nothing all that impressive this year.

    like you mentioned, best part of this is that they are keeping valentine. did you see his reaction when a reporter told him that wells' HR should have been reviewed?? classic.

    he's the perfect manager for a team that you hate. I wish the mets still had him

    Yeah, his contract is bad but they will have a lot of space. They are certainly going to make some big time signings, but I just don't know if they can get a better value than Gonzalez with the way signings have gone over the past couple years. They are going to have so much money though.

    I would say this has to be a huge vote of confidence for him.

    I wouldn't go near Hamilton. Issues and can't stay on the field...no thanks. Going to be so much money.

    Pete Abe says they have a frame work for 2 deals. One with Crawford and one without. De La Rosa was optioned and didn't clear waivers so he'll have to be included as a player to be named later.
