Great NESN article on the Red Sox players eligible for arbitration next week. I don’t see any reason not to offer arbitration to all four players eligible. Beltre and Martinez will decline and the Sox get draft picks. Tek could go either way but seems to want to stay in a Red Sox uni and would be a great mentor for Salty. And Lopez? It’s a win either way.

Holy crap, the World Series just ended three weeks ago? I need a winter hobby…
