It seems wrong, somehow, to be focusing on the Red Sox in December. But given the fact that all of the other Boston-area pro sports teams - the ones now playing and, you know, winning - found themselves with a day off, Boston sports fans were drawn to the glowing-red hot stove action unfolding within the Red Sox organization.
All day on Tuesday, the word was that it was close, this business between the Sox and Santana. The Angels were in the thick of it, but seemed out of the mix by the end of the day. The Yankees had bluffed their way into what came to sound like a whole lot of nothing. So, as the rumor mill would have it, the big question that remained was a painful one. Who do we lose if we gain such a powerful arm?
We still don't know. Because that's what Tuesday amounted to: a whole lot of radio listening and news site refreshing, but no answers.
