redsox make another move

With yesterdays stellar trade the Sox yet again upgraded the team for 2006 adding Mark Loretta who's career stats are def an upgrade from anyone we have had in recent years, in 2005 404 AB's he hit .280, OBP of .360, and SLG of .347. He also came back early last year from a torn ligament in his thumb. all reports of that thumb have come back as fully recovered. he should add a big boost Boston's already high powered offense.

The projected line-up (assuming Damon and Manny stay) looks i think like this

Damon
Loretta
Ortiz
Manny
Mike Lowell
Varitek
Nixon
E is for Edgar
Youkilis

Pretty solid offense
With an even stronger pitching staff of
Schilling, Beckett, Wake, Clement, Arroyo, Wells, Papelbon.
Now i am fully expecting for at least 2-3 pitchers to get traded (most likely Wells, Arroyo, and Clement)
