I know Brooks is a creative guy, and if he pulls any weight in the organization and has a good working relationship with Ozzie and KW...I'd love for these three things to happen (preferably on the same day) and create a nationwide buzz and boost a growing surge of Sox Pride.
1) Ink Magglios extension: Give him what he wants and deserves.
2) Land the starting pitcher we need: Garcia should be dealt soon, especially after a pitiful showing by the Mariner offense in against Milwaukee, wasting another quality start by Freddy.
3) Land a quality arm out of the pen, and officially name Shingo closer: As much as I like Mike Jackson as a person, he's a question mark on the hill. We need someone who can come in in the 6th or 7th and hold. group that with Marte and Shingo, and late inning losses will be few and far between. Let Adkins do long relief when needed, and let Koch continue working on dance moves and comical bits for his new career as "Southpaw". Shingo has already earned the skimpy salary he's getting paid, so give him the vote of confidence so he'll have no reason to want to go anywhere else next year.
