I would love having Roger here. Love it. And yes - the Sox, with a rotation of Clemens, Schilling, beckett, Matuzaksa (I guess I have to learn how to spell that eventually) and Papelbon, with a lineup of Crisp, Youkilis, Ortiz, Manny, Drew, Lowell, Tek!, Lugo and Pedroia would kick ass unless the bullpen was just totally terrible. Heck, if Beckett figured it out and Mats and Papelbon were near to what was expected, 100 games might be low end!!
Dunno that I see it happening, and not for financial reasons. I don't think Roger will come back to Fenway (though, how cool would it be for his kids to be in Fenway for the home opener when Roger takes the mound? The fans wouldn't sit down until the bottom of the 1st.)
