We do not need him in Boston...

Haha. This story might even be more useless than A-Rod and his wife. Who wants this guy at $12 m per? Nobody! You couldnt trade him for a bag of baseballs and A-Rod's wife. Ok..well...maybe you could make that deal. I would.

"We do not need him in Boston..."

Hehehe yeah Breakfast Cereal worked out GREAT for the Sox! He hasn't been ANY good since he left Cleveland!

coco has been awesome in the field and helped the sox to the best record in baseball. That counts for something... i think....

It totally does.

The Red Sox have the 3rd best offense WITH Coco not hitting. They can afford his lack of production at the plate when he's playing incredible defense.

We still don't need him...

Can you spell Jacoby Ellsbury...

Johny has no arm, he can't even reach the cutoff

I see a few teams (Both LA teams,Cubbies,Mets?) That would have interest in a player like Damon. When he's on hes a very good hitter and solid fielder. If the angels keep tearing it up then i can seriously see damon to the angels for a good prospect, a player who could start, and a pitcher.

Yankees won't trade him. This is a useless story.

Hey, now, never say the Red Sox couldn't have any use for John. After all, equipment managers and latrine swabbers don't just magically appear out of nowhere.

Yeah adams300... you defend your life's work!

Air Apparent ... Mets have Carlos Beltran in center field. Why would they want Damon? Solid fielder? Are you joking?

I'd love to see the list of the 12 teams he'd play for

Milawaukee would be a great deal for Damon with a first place team.

I can't see a legit contender going for Damon. Maybe a team that's grasping for a wild card spot. He's definitely on the back 9 of his career with his best days behind him. Can't see the Yanks getting much for him with that kind of salary. They might move him, but I'm sure whoever they get for him will be in AA or AAA for a while.

They don't want to move him. Good thing noone wants him...!?!

Agreed - No one will take Damon. But we can dream, can't we ?

Damon is a great player - we can all agree on that (this is comign from a lifelong BoSox fan. But Boston doesn't need the guy. Despite some of the blogs on this page, Coco Crisp has improved this season; his defense is phenomenal, and his batting is improving. The Yankees need to do something quick if they want to have any chance at a post season berth.

The White Sox. Just watch.

He aint Going Nowhere....

Brian "Steinbrenner's Marionette" Cashman does not have the guts or smarts to make a trade where he might have to give something up to try and help his team. He makes salary dump trades based on other teams desire to rid themselves of expensive contracts which is basically a free agent signing with money paid out and some crap players thrown in to smokescreen it as a trade.
