I find it hard to believe that we have so many Sox fans that have turned into bean counters. Our payroll has risen and after this year I think it will go up more too.
With that said, Assuming Frank doesn't come back, which for some reason I think Ozzie would love that, we are going to be left with Dye and GULP! Everett. Konerko is defineately worth 12 million for 4 years, and If they can work out something with Frank (short-term incentive laiden contract) we can have Frank hitting 3, PK at 4, and Dye at 5. Offensive problem solved.
Frank has had two healthy seasons in the last five. No offensive problems are solved at all with your solution.
