Boston Redsox
I hear a lot of Redsox fans complaining that the Redsox didn't really upgrade when they aquired Adrian Gonzales and signed Carl Crawford. Most of these fans feel that the stats that they gave up (Victor Martinez and Adrian Beltre) are roughly the same as what they got in return. Well I personally think that Gonzales and Crawford will blow away the stats of Martinez and Beltre. This I think will be especially true if the predictions of what Gonzales will do in Fenway Park come close to being true. The name of the game in Baseball is runs scored, and Gonzales and Crawford combined for a combined 40 more runs than Martinez and Beltre last season. Keep in mind that Gonzales played on a Padres team where he was the only true run producer. He also played in a very pitcher friendly park for half the season. It should be a fun season to watch in Beantown!
