As a diehard Sox fan, i gotta respond to the sox threads, and talk about the team...that being said:

Vtek will be resigned, unless he asks for WAY too much, which doesnt seem likely given his character.
Cabrera is also a must-sign, and given that he spent his career in Montreal before this magical Series run, its a good bet he will resign for somewhere around the 7, 8 million a year mark...for only 3 years max. The Sox have two great SS prospects in the upper minors, and they think at least 1 will be ready for the 06 season

Lowe is a goner, after this postseason his price has been jacked up, Scott Boras is his agent, and we are not going to give him big money. After watching this guy for years, there is no way the Sox will give him a huge deal....way,way, too inconsisten. Remember, before the playoffs started Lowe wasnt even going to be in the rotation. It took mayhem in the Yankee series for him to even get a shot...which he definately took full advantage of, and someone is going to overpay him because of it.

Pedro could come back, but only for a big paycut (he made 17 mil this year). Hes on the downside of his career, and if he does want too much money, the Sox will go out and get Pavano, who has much more upside over the next few years.

This Sox team isnt going anywhere folks...the new owners aren't scared to open the checkbook, and the GM will always fill out a deep solid roster
