This isn't approaching Delonte West is a great player status yet but its getting there.

Are you a ****in idiot?

The guys listed are homegrown guy from the current Red Sox managemnt which was brought in in 2003 since the current owners bought the teasm in 2002. Only you would try to compare them to players who have played 15 years.

We are talking about the Red sox and your insistence that they aren't developing players, not comparing the Red Sox and yankees going back to 1994.
