Been drinking but here's a thought .... I grew up with the Rocket being my favorite player ... then the bastard put on pinstripes ... I've wanted him to retire forever so I could like him again.

But if I'm the Sox owner here is what I do .... I offer Roger 15 million a year to be player/coach .... give him a 3 year player/coach contract, as long as he feels like it he's the 5th starter, that way he gets what 18-22 starts a year and is still eligible for the playoffs. Also what player will question his work ethic??? maybe he can't manage but what better place to try than Boston. The only contract stipulation that I make is that he must enter the HOF as a Red Sox ... I can see it now who better to win our first WS since 1918 than Rocket the player/coach coming in relief of Pedro in the 8th .... any fool knows Pedro is done come the 8th right Grady?????
