ESPN: Thoughts on how Red Sox will fill key holes as they build for 2010
Gammons and Edes. Non-Insider. Go. Besides Bay, will the Red Sox add another big bat? Gammons: Other than left field, I do believe they'll dabble in the bat world, depending on what they think they're hearing on the health of David Ortiz and Mike Lowell.
When Ortiz bats under .230 next year...
When Ortiz bats under .230 next year... Dont make me give you the painful recap of the 04 ALCS please....No David Ortiz , no Game 5 of that series...Nevermind 6 or 7 Actually, any player on the 2004 Red Sox could have hit those walk off hits.
Matsui a possibility for Red Sox
All indications point to the Red Sox wanting to bring free-agent outfielder Jason Bay back into the fold next season, and Matt Holliday has been brought up as an intriguing Plan B if that falls through.

Theo Epstein cana t just wait a til next year
But plans change. Instead of sweating out the details in person with a third visit to the World Series this decade, Epstein is spending time at home like most everyone else not associated with the Phillies or Yankees .
Theo Epstein has since said the words weren't meant as a shot across the bow, but they sure came across that way.
Well did it end up any different than any of you thought? They sure didnt show up for the Angel series now did they? Ain't no blaming Paps for that! The pitching sure didn't let them down it was the hitting as we all know.
Take baseball analysis with a grain of salt
The guy anointed the best pitcher in the history of baseball is not a craggy graybeard who won 511 ballgames a century ago.
Final year of a $13m contract...no doubt in my mind he'll be back. I actually like the idea of him playing in a contract year, he's already preparing himself for next season and is scheduled to go to The Athletes Performance Institute with Pedroia and Ellsbury next month.
Ortiz: Mills not sexy pick, but give him a chance
