I recently read that Roy Oswalt turned down an offer of 5K to pitch for a year for the Cardinals. Is there a particular reason the WSox wouldn't be "in" for Roy at say 6-7K a year? With a club option?

Humber did not throw a full compliment of 200 innings last year, and Sale has only pitched in the high 130's split between College and Majors. I have already heard talk of limiting Sale's innings, and not sold on Humber for the year. Nor am I sold on Peavy lasting an entire year.

Thoughts?
