Unplug Carmine: We’ll replace Carmine with Strat-O-Matic Baseball. Instead of having Bill James and friends run the numbers, just place any potential free-agent signees or trade acquisitions in the Red Sox lineup and match them up against a group of AL East All-Stars or the defending World Series champs. Given some of the mega busts in the past few years – the Red Sox could not have done any worse.
