Only in Boston would there be speculation about the meaning of a
former Red Sox player putting his local-area house on the market. So, when
Jon Lester put his Newton house up for sale, conspiracy theories abounded. Now, thanks to
WEEI.com's Rob Bradford, we find out that
it may be simple practicality behind the move. Lester is merely hedging his bets by listing the $1.85 million abode—
in case he does sign with another club. It's not easy unloading such properties quickly in this "recovering" Massachusetts economy. Also, the lefty can just as easily take the house
off the market as put it
on. Lester also wanted it to be known (apparently via Bradford) that he is not be 'averse' to buying
another Boston-area home if he comes back to re-don
Carmine Hose. So, take off the tin-foil hats, stop listening to the moronic
Coast-to-Coast AM radio show and start thinking straight!
