950 Espn's Jody McDonald was reporting today that the Boston Red Sox are offering 6.75 ERA right handed pitcher Clay Buchholz to the Phillies for the Phillies top prospect at the catcher postion, Lou Marson. Marson has been turning more than just a few heads in his spring training with the Phillies. It seems by some analysts that Marson could be an instant all star on just about any team. The Red Sox have Jason Varitek for just one more season and he probably won't be an every day catcher, so they are going do dangle a so called up and coming right hander to the Phils to see if they bite. It is my personal opinion that to find and actually have a catcher that is better than average is a high commodity and if Marson is that good of a player then they can get a lot more for him when they are ready to cut him loose. I think Carlos Ruiz is a good defensive catcher but murders our eight and nine hole spots in the line up. Phillies fans voice yourselves and keep Lou Marson in Red and White pin stripes and definitely not to the line up of the Red Sox Nation( J D Drew, Kurt Shilling, Lou Marson, ect...) enough said.
