Re: Red Sox 3B Lowell intrested in joining the Yankees? -

As much as I hate to say this since without Lowell, the Sox would be ****ed, it makes a lot of sense if A-Rod goes.
A. He is the best 3B on the market besides A-Rod (by FAR). If Rodriguez leaves, then he becomes the best option for the Yankees.
B. He was in the Yankees organization before.
C. They are likely to give a huge offer to capitalize off of this contract year.
D. If he moved his family to Boston, he wouldn't be far/the move wouldn't be far.
Plus, I think the Sox might not re-sign him for various reasons, a major one being that it might open up a slot in the lineup for Ellsbury. (Move Youk back to third even though he's been gold glove caliber at first, teach one of the OFs or Ortiz to play first, and stick Ellsbury in the OF with Manny at DH).
Then out of fairness to the others you will be Slagathor.
