    Julio doesn't have to be an ace to be worth keeping. He's basically an extremely Cost controlled 2/3 starter that doesn't appear to be an obvious candidate for injury (like Wood) that we have under control until 2020. Even if he's Ervin Santana, he's going to be really valuable moving forward.

    But I would trade him for Mookie. That's a no brainer.

    Not sold on Mookie yet. He will need to prove that he can hit lefties and hit away from that piss poor excuse of a left field in Fenway. Dude is nothing less than complete hot garbage on the road.

    I'd unload Wood in a heartbeat. I think he's vastly overrated. Besides a good curve and an unorthodox delivery, his fastball is as flat as snake nuts and he gets tattooed. And it seems like whenever we need him to pitch a good game, he chokes and we have to listen to him studder his way through excuses in the post game interviews. Could give **** about him.

    That's true. But if you can sell him as a future ace that's cost controlled (sell high on him) then you do it.
