I am a Red Sox Fan and am not overly upset by the trade. I think Arod is the 2nd best baseball. I think Pujois is the best. Arod will definitely improve the Yankees by a bunch. The Red Sox also improved themselves with the additions of Shilling and Foulde. The best team in the Ameerican league I believe is Anaheim. They added 2 very good starting pitchers in Colon and Escobar. If that wasn't enough they added one of the top 10 players in baseball in Vlad. I Think Anaheim is very very good and also 1 year removed from winning a world championship. Oakland is also very good with their big 3 in the rotation so there is nor guarentee that the loser in AL east divisional title will even make the playoffs. Just one man's opinion on the offseason.
