WEEI's Full Count blog has a bunch of stuff on Mike Lowell and his thumb:
Here he says he could have been a 20 HR, 90 RBI guy in 2009 with 20 more starts.
And here he confirms that he was always up front about the thumb injury from day one and expects to be ready for Spring Training with or without the Red Sox.
Surviving Grady has a funny take on the Lowell non-trade with their latest episode of "Youk & Lowell: Cops With Guns."
Extra Bases has a final tally on the 2009 payrolls and wonders how the Yankees have bee allowed to get so far ahead of the rest of the league. The Yankees spent $220 million... $78M more than the second highest payroll... also in New York. The Sox were 4th at $140M and Marlins Pirates and Padres all spent under $50M in 2009.
Gordon Edes has a bunch of John Lackey factoids at ESPN's Boston page.
Ian at Sox & Dawgs wonders who is to blame for Jason Bay not returning to Boston, Bay's Agent Joe Urbon or Bay himself? You be the judge...
And Brian at One If By Land compares David Ortiz to Nick Johnson, the new DH in New York... Nick may not be a 40 HR guy, but Brian thinks he's got the overall edge onan aging Big Papi.
Speaking of the Yankees, rumors are flying about a possible deal for a starter and Joel Sherman has finally figured out who it is - Javier Vazquez. MLB Trade Rumors has the all the details.
And lastly, Fenway West has gone all techno-savvy with their new iphone and Android apps... pretty cool if you ask me.
