Airborne Matsu
Reports out of Boston's two main papers are claiming that Scott Boras and Daisuke Matsuzaka are currently en route to Boston on John Henry's personal plane. This comes only shortly after last night's reportedly "hurdle-laden" negotiations in California.
Articles that surfaced this morning had two potential figures to greet the morning cup of coffee. The Sox were apparently offering $48 million over six years, while for Boras's part there was reportedly an offer of $66 million over the same amount of time. It would be great to get Matsu signed for the former deal, but the latter is certainly about market value for, say Gil Meche. For a difference of roughly $3 million, this is definitely a deal that should get done.
I'm glad to see this turned around.
