Point is, even though the 40-man is theoretically full, there are a number of guys who could be dropped at a moment's notice with no effect on the team. And probably will be soon. I am sure we are going to bring in a 3B at some point.

Agreed. Though honestly, I'd rather protect someone like Shoemaker than Carter, but that's a very small argument.

I see no way this team won't compete for the ALC crown in 2013. As long as, of course, they are relatively healthy. Will they beat out DET? Probably not, but stranger things happen every season. The Sox will be in the hunt. This.
