Jeez, I never heard his report was to this extent.
Regardless, whoever does end up with Lind may as well have been a contender for Martinez. A lot of people have thrown Baltimore and Seattle out there as options and they figure to be involved with Martinez as well. If I had to guess on both I would say Lind to Oakland and Martinez to Seattle or Detroit.
EDIT: I still think nothing of Levine, just thought it was interesting he'd put his reputation out there. The Sox have watched Martinez very closely over the years and it's not hard to believe they like him a lot as a player. His age, contract and compensation are a lot to swallow though.
in the 2004 offseason he staked his reputation on the Sox signing Omar Vizquel. less than 24 hours after he did that, Omar signed a 3 year deal with the Giants
