Re: Carl Crawford to sign with the Angels
Nice. I didn't think there was any chance he would sign with the Sox following Werth's deal and was concerned that he would end up in NY. If this deal gets done, you have to imagine the Yankees will basically hand Lee a blank check for 6 years, and maybe even go 7 given what else is available in the market outside of trades
And yes, no official deal has been reported, but multiple sources stating that it will happen at some point.

Re: Carl Crawford to sign with the Angels
I am trying not to nitpick on these threads. I believe Crawford will sign with the Angels too. But please.....no deal has happened yet your title seems to indicate this has already happened or at least that it's imminent (like the next few minutes)
We have discussed suspensions among the mods for misleading titles relating to player transactions. I'm not saying you are the worst offense as some others have used this gimick to get people to look at their threads. But please, please.....watch the titles of these articles.
Just because you heard this on Boston radio does not mean it has happened yet.
A more apt title: Deal For Crawford To Angels Almost Complete
Thanks.

Re: Carl Crawford to sign with the Angels
Yeah, they just said on espn that A SOURCE has indicated that Crawford will sign with the Angels.....UHHHHH
Remember a couple of years ago when Ric Bucher stated that Kobe Bryant would NEVER play another game for the Lakers?
These guys are a joke

Re: Carl Crawford to sign with the Angels
I wonder how smart it is to give Crawford a seven-year deal (which I assume he's getting). For someone whose two best skills are primarily based on speed, paying him oodles well into his 30s has at least a good chance of turning sour. Speed is usually the first thing to go, remember.

Re: Carl Crawford to sign with the Angels
Maybe he can evolves into a more complete hitter as he loses his speed - maybe not Albert Pujols, but certainly a guy who is capable of hitting at least .290 with 20-22 home runs and maybe 90 RBIS.
He can probably steal 15-20 bases a year, even if most his speed goes in his 30s.

Re: Carl Crawford to sign with the Angels
I don't disagree, but what is a .290/20/90 slash worth?
That was my one hesitation about the Sox signing him. I'd be thrilled if they did, but I wonder about years 5-7.

Re: Carl Crawford appears close to deal with the Angels

Re: Carl Crawford to sign with the Angels
I can see what you are saying makes sense but the prevailing wisdom of the talking heads seems to be the opposite. They all seem to say players with a skill set like Crawford based on speed and athleticism age better than someone like Adam Dunn which is based on patience and power. I can't say which one I really believe!

Holy #$%&^%%%. The Red Sox are going to be tough as nails next year. The Yanks better get Cliff Lee right this second.
