Big wow. I think he'll win the MVP in Boston w/50+ HR's.

What's not mentioned in the article (and video) is that the Padres GM and assistant GM are both former assistants to Theo Epstein. There's obviously a relationship there.

As long as the deal goes through, Gonzalez fantasy value just went up.

Big pick-up for the Bosox.

KillaRSox · Dec 4, 2010

Now the sox need to go after Crawford

JakeT. · Dec 4, 2010

Wowzer. Nice signing. Gonzalez's power numbers should go up in a big way.

RUSS · Dec 4, 2010

Nice i can hear steinbrener rolling over lol

Ok ...so now do the Padres demote themselves to a triple A club.

BostonBettor · Dec 4, 2010

Assuming deal goes thru - Gonzo and Sox have to work out an extension - Sox apparently are only giving up prospects. Sox have been after this guy for a couple of years. Really does seem like a great pick up for them at a reasonable price.

Casey Kelly is a big loss for Boston, he should do very well in the NL.

viking611 · Dec 4, 2010

Good. They would've been one of the big players going after Pujols next year if he doesn't get an extension from the Cards this season.

People are saying he is supposed to be a top-of-the-rotation starter. It still seems like the Padres got fleeced. What else is new.

About time they did something during the off season fans actually care about.

Right now they only have Gonzalez locked up for one year, so it could happen

As much I hate to see them give up young players just to be able to negotiate early with a star, Gonzalez is probably earning about $15 million under his market value, so that's cool. Another piece of evidence showing how well Boston does in the draft

The right field fence is going to be moved in 9ft as well.

Sucks...fuckin arena baseball.

I think they are pretty happy with their first baseman.

like the padres got fleeced for jake peavy. agone, though, is perfect for fenway park.

Pads should have gotten a little more.

Even though he was signed for one year, as someone mentioned, he was signed for about $15,000,000 below his market value. That has a lot of value.

They are getting a player to be named later which could be a significant prospect.

JoeFalls · Dec 4, 2010

the player to be named later, will not be a significant prospect.

I feel the same way and have been wanting to see him play any where other than SD. Could be scary what he may do.

Red Sox land Adrian Gonzalez. wow.
