It's only been one day since the World Series came to an end but already 35 players have scheduled for free agency. To see how the free agents affect your team, go to:

I'm a Red Sox fan but it looks like they won't change much. They are committed to $110 million dollars in payroll so they could only get a few guys. I think that they'll end up resigning Todd Walker. They had interest in Luis Castillo but are unsure how he'll play on a big market team. I'm guessing that they try to sign Kelvim Escobar since they seemed pretty high on him. Bartolo Colon will cost too much and they have worries about his health. Little's almost certainly gone (possibly to Baltimore) and it looks like Glenn Hoffman is the number one candidate to take his place.
I think they're regretting signing Manny Ramirez to a long term contract. He's a great hitter but I think they'd be much better off trading him and using the money to get a top tier pitcher and someone like Shannon Stewart to replace him.
