The Red Sox picked up the option on Scott Atchison to return him to the bullpen with Daniel Bard. Atchison was one of the better, more reliable members of the pen last year which saw Manny Delcarmen & Ramon Ramirez get traded to NL clubs late last year. Bullpen help is a major issue for Theo to address in 2011.
The Sox declined options on Bill Hall & Felipe Lopez. Hall had a great year offensively, but was a liability in the field. Lopez doesn't really fit in the infield with Pedroia coming back & Jed Lowrie playing the utility role.
Slowly, the Sox are putting together their 2011 roster. Free agents Victor Martinez & Adrian Beltre are the next major pieces to the puzzle.
