One obvious target continues to be Chad Cordero of the Nationals. Washington GM Jim Bowden is a known fan of Wily Mo Peña, and perhaps could be enticed into dealing Cordero if the Sox throw in one of their young power arms, a list that includes Edgar Martinez.

He Wil(y). Jimbo's man crush will get the best of him.
Bet the house on it: Bowden will work out a Chief-for-Wily Mo Peña (and a young arm or 2) deal with the Red Sox.
Deal makes sense for both sides: Sox need a closer, and dealing Cordero fits in with Stan's Plan for the 2007 N-AAA-tionals. Because, you know, it has to get much, much worse before it gets better.

Do we really need another OF? Couldn't we just settle on one of the 14 we have right now?

This is all about Bowden's love for W.M.P...
