Today on "As The Red Sox Turn"
This kid Marte is apparently pretty damn good. Someone in the Braves front office said "he’s the best player we've ever traded". Yes, he said BEST EVER.
But it gets better. Is Theo making these moves? Like Woah.
Even if Marte starts the year in AAA, the Sox figure to have an entirely new infield, with Mike Lowell at third, Mark (aka Adam) Loretta at second and Kevin Youkilis at first. Who will play short? How about Miguel Tejada? Umm.....wow.

The World Cup draw is today/tonight!
Quoth the Peabs: Whatevs is the new Retrobuzz.
So I was at Best Buy the other night looking for the new Rogue Wave CD and that live Pulp DVD (yes, I am aware of how incredibly stupid that statement sounds) and even though I didn't find either of those, I did buy this!
Blur are about to go back into the studio, but there is still something missing from this picture. Not to be outdone, Graham drops the knowledge on his next solo joint.
Today's Forgotten Favorite:
Pink Floyd : Fearless (MP3) - Not a huge Floyd fan by any means (although it's all you hear on classic rock stations in North Carolina) but this song is a favorite of mine, if only for the backwards soccer chants that are looped at both ends of this song. Best.
yeah, rumor has it that theo has been involved the entire time. gordon edes sort of confirmed it on sosh at 330am last night (if you go to the 'thank you, bill mueller' thread) you can read up on it.
the RUMOR is that tomorrow at the 'christmas at fenway' party/money-making ticket-onsale, they're going to introduce the new gms (cherington and hoyer) - but we might just see theo up there instead.
indeed, as the red sox world turns.
