What bothers me most about the status quo is that I'm not confident the Sox have a plan to turn things around next year. I certainly do not find the idea of another year of Brogna and Daubach palatable.
Third base is a REAL problem.
It does not appear that any of the better third basemen will be free agents this winter and none seem like obvious trade opportunities. And, as we all know, it's not as though the Sox have anyone in the minors who can do the job. Common wisdom says that it's easy to fill the corner positions, but I'm not so sure.
