Report: Red Sox Make Huge Offer to Teixeira

The Boston Red Sox have made the biggest offer in club history to Mark Teixeira. The deal is said to be for 8 year and could be up to $180 million. With the economy going down and ticket prices frozen you have to wonder how the Red Sox plan on making this kind of committment for the long term. Does this mean they will not be able to get that big free agent next year or the year after that? The farm system has been good but it can not replace eveything and the Sox are going to need some front line starters in the next few years. We just have to say "in Theo we trust" with this one.
