As a Yankee fan it is hard for me to admit that Boston really didn't go the whore way as much as you would think. Youkillis, Pedroiza, Varitek, Ellsbury, Papelbon, Lester and a couple of more are home grown guys (Varitek might have ben a trade). Manny was a big ticket item from a few years ago (who has been put on waivers a few times). Anyone could of had Ortiz. They traded some gems for Beckett. Dice-K was a whore moved that paid off. You would think that he will just get better. J.D. Drew stinks and Gange is a shell of his old self. Those are the only marginal whore moves that they made. I do not think that Lugo and Crisp are good enough to be considered whores. Lowell was always a solid player, he thrived in that lineup with those monsters hitting around him. They also have some young arms for the future. I really do not think of them as a whore team.
