Mike Lowell

Day 5 of the offseason is upon us and Mike Lowell still hasn’t filed for free agency yet. Is this a good thing or bad thing. We can only hope that it is a good thing. The biggest news yesterday was that Doug Mirabelli filed for free agency. I think that move was just a formality as more than likely Tim Wakefield will be back next season, meaning that Mirabelli would be re-signed. So while you’re waiting for happy hour, check out these stories from the Boston Globe and Boston Herald.
