... wonders if the Washington Nationals are rushing Stephen Strasburg.
Tony's Top 5
Best offseason moves in recent Red Sox history
5
Signing Johnny Damon From 2002-05, Damon averaged 149 games, 16 home runs, 115 runs and 25 steals. His OPS was .803. Rock solid.
4
Trading for Curt Schilling The piece that put the Red Sox over the top in 2004. Most guys go to New York to win titles. Schilling came here.
3
Signing David Ortiz In 10 years, he's hit more homers than anybody but Albert Pujols, Adam Dunn or Alex Rodriguez. Jackpot.
2
Signing Manny Ramirez Find another $100 million free agent contract that lived up to this one. Anywhere. He was worth it.
1
Trading for Pedro Martinez Since he came in November 1997, only the Braves and Yankees have won more games.
