GoodAsGould Posted February 1, 2007 Share Posted February 1, 2007 QUOTE(witesoxfan @ Jan 31, 2007 -> 02:51 AM) Ian Stewart, sure. Mike Lowell's a free agent after this season, so they'd just be moving to Atkins over a year early. The point of the matter is, whats in it for them in recieving Lowell.

I guess it would depend how much of Helton's contract they would have kept. If The Red Sox were going to grab a substantial portion, they would have been free of Lowell's contract after this year. SI.com in their rumors section has a blurb about how with Helton staying, they may be limited for extensions on guys like Holiday and such...

Nothing more than hoping to get a prospect or two out of the gargantuan deal of Helton, similar to the Vazquez deal last year when the DBacks took on Duque.
