According to
Don Norcross of "Sign On San Diego" (God knows what those Left Coasters mean about anything) the Red Sox are the front runners to land the services (via trade) of San Diego superstar Adrian Gonzalez. Norcross surmises that A-Gon would love to pepper the Monster with an "oppo" swing and (maybe more importantly) the scout who signed Gonzalez (Dave Finley) is in the Boston front office. In our view, this is the move that needs to made this Winter. Anything less than adding an elite bat like Gonzalez (not to mention a revamped bullpen) will scream "Bridge Year Two".
