I just read an article where Ortiz said the Sox should add a power hitter this month... Another recent article quoted Herrington and Farrell saying things like 'we're not giving up on this season', 'we might be buyers', etc...
So, I think they could be buyers and sellers... Get rid of the dead weight (Gomes, Drew, etc) and try to get a power hitting OF. (The beat writers love to dream about Stanton)...
So, what if their line-up looked like this:
Holt (3B)
Pedroia (2B)
Ortiz (DH)
Some Slugger (RF) - like Stanton or Heyward
Napoli (1B)
Vazquez (C)
Bogaerts (SS)
Betts (LF)
Bradley (CF)
(leaving out Middlebrooks - they'd need to trade someone. Also, half their AAA stars would need to go...)
