The fallout continues

Jason Varitek and Curt Schilling have both come out and spoken about how disappointed they are in the losses the Red Sox have already had this offseason with GM Theo Epstein, Assistant GM Josh Byrnes (now the GM in Arizona), and coach Dale Sveum among others.

David Wells and Manny Ramirez reportedly have asked to be traded.

And they still have some FA issues to deal with starting with CF Johnny Damon.

The Red Sox problems make the Yankees issues look like child's play.

But to twist the knife just a bit, I'd love to see the Yankees offer up Epstein a consultant's job for the next year while he figures out his next move. That would be almost as good as making Epstein the new Yankee's GM.
