Hypothetical situation. If the Red Sox wanted him bad enough, to the tune of say Arroyo, Ramirez/Lester/Paplebon (pick one) and Sanchez... you don't believe he would be a Red Sox? (I realize that trade would never happen or Theo would be burned at a stake here) but I don't see how you can completely rule out the Red Sox until you know their true interest. I wish I was as confident as you are about the Sox not making a move on him, but I just don't see the evidence showing that.
If anything the evidence points to the contrary. Gammons believes the Red Sox want him badly enough to pry him away from the Marlins, and Olney was quoted on WFAN in New York saying that he believes the Red Sox will end up with AJ.
