I changed the title. I have the power.
Daily Reading.
-
Arroyo gets extension. HT: SoxDevil Makes sense for the Reds, but it's another example of contracts getting out of control. The Reds could have waited another season to do this, even if locking up Harang and Arroyo at the same time looks nice.
-
Deweys House looks at all-time 2B in Red Sox history. Look for SS in the coming days or weeks or something. Either way, a great piece, and I'm just a couple days late in linking to it.

Top 100 Red Sox. The ants go marching two-by-two hurrah...hurrah. Today: George Winter and Lee Smith.
- This seems ridiculous, but it may come to pass. Hardly seems logical to quibble over a $475,000 gap with the other money we've spent this offseason. (Just ask Dayn Perry how much we've spent!)
Should Lee Smith be in the HoF?
If you don't remember his career from experience (he did kick around forever though), check his b-r page and the top 100 profile. This has become somewhat of a hot-button issue, because Lee Smith was never exactly dominant, but did hang around and save a lot of games. Since I'm not making this a poll question, some rationale would be nice, though I assume you'll all tell me to shove it and just give a yes or no answer with no embellishment.
