A-Gon Extension Close?

While both sides are poo-pooing any imminent contract extension, it's painfully obvious that it will happen. As has been intimated in earlier reports, the Red Sox want to wait until after Opening Day to formalize the deal—saving them millions on luxury tax penalties in 2011.
