Wow the first post and so much info in it. (Just kidding, welcome)
As for Harden, talent wise he's one of the best pitchers in the game. With that said health wise he just can't stay healthy. Giving up a player like WMP would be fine, but more than that I don't understand it from the Sox point of view.

I think that this possibility will all depend on how hard the Red Sox are going to try to sign Roger Clemens. Harden would be a good pick up but it depends on what it will cost the Red Sox. You would have to think that Billy Beane will want some young pitching talent but I am not sure who they would ask for? Possibly Delcarmen or Hansen?

Yeah, I wouldn't touch him. If Billy Beane is looking to trade a pitcher who isn't anywhere close to being a free agent, it probably means trouble. Either he's very injured or some other teams is going to really overpay.
I don't think he'll ever throw 150 innings in a season. Not worth it.
