Braves haven't won a World Series in 20 years, the A's haven't since McGwire and Canseco were sticking needles in each other's asses, and the Rays have never won a Series. So let's follow their model. Great thinking.
Scherzer won't be elite in 7 years. No 30 year old will be unless they're cheating. But for the next 3-5 years, he's going to be a top pitcher in the game, and would make the Sox virtual locks for the playoffs every year. But let's not do that. Instead, let's hope the stars align perfectly and we never have to go out and spend some major money for a pitcher.
I sure like the sound of Shark, Sale, Q, and Rodon. The impact Rodon has on this rotation for the next 6 years is SO freaking forgotten/ downplayed here. Thanks, hi8is.
