Re: Red Sox and other Major League Baseball
I consider it short-term because, in making trades of that magnitude, you should be a championship contender after those trades or at least have the flexibility to still acquire a player if needed in-season. The Red Sox, as currently construed, are not a championship contender. Remember, after all t...

A big part of the strength of the URI backcourt is that it goes beyond EC and JT. Including Jarvis, Dowtin and Stan gives us a lot more quality depth in the backcourt, which in my opinion, makes the backcourt better than that of the other A10 teams.
