"Roy Oswalt wants one year to prove he's worth a big free agent contract. Boston would be the perfect place to do it.

With the Red Sox in need of starting help, but not wanting to commit big money to 2013 because of the luxury tax implications, there's no better fit on the market than Oswalt.

The 34-year-old right-hander is exactly what the Red Sox need. He's a proven veteran with an extensive track record and a history of big-game experience."
