I hope it isn't anything worse than a bad back. This probably pushes Jackson into starting in CF, Eaton in LF and Cabrera to DH. I think it gives the Sox an opportunity to take on a contract someone might be looking to shed for little in return. |

Eaton starts the season at DH to allow his shoulder to strengthen following off season surgery. Jackson is CF, Garcia if RF. |

Hahn is looking to fill the roster spot with another ex-cub. He is in discussion with Hee-Seop Cho. |

This is turning out to be one heck of a day. LaRoche retires and they released shit bucket Olt. Now all they have to do is give that giant turd Jacob Turner his walking papers and it will be a banner fucking day. |

He's claiming "personal reasons" which I hope means "I don't want to be Adam Dunn 2.0" and not "my wife has a drinking problem" or something similar. |

14 million dollars for 6 months of DH and relief @ first base, real dumb move.. Just like Dumpster with Boston. |

He has enough money, so why not go and od what you want to do. |

If he wasn't so outmatched and getting booed for being a bum..he'd stick it out and honor his contract..Im hoping a grizzly eats his ignorant ass. |

I am shocked the guy doesn't want to ride the pine for a season and collect another 13 million. The Sox got a huge break here, as it was addition by subtraction. LaRoche was not likely to contribute much and now they not only can use the 25th spot on the roster for a better player, but utilize the 13 million to perhaps add a significant player that can help the team. If not now, perhaps close to the trade deadline, should the team be contending for a wildcard berth or a division title. Huge break. |
