Lowell
December 2009
Finally, the Mike Lowell issue should be more or less put to rest. After the botched trade attempt and the rough fallout afterwards, the team has finally got their man to have surgery. Happy New Years to him. But some of the damage has already been done and will be tough to change. Lowell, hopefully, will be back at full strength at some point early in the season. His thumb surgery doesn’t appear to be very serious but it is important to get him back on track for the next few seasons. Can we still trade him? Possibly, but I doubt it. That’s about all the big news there is in Red Sox world, so we’ll see you in 2010!
