August 27th vs Seattle

[RoyNHSox]

It would be nice if the Sox could get at least a hit off Baek.

C'mon, enough dodging. You clearly have a preference for older talent. You even said that you'd prefer to have Adam Kennedy then Howie Kendrick. When pressed for reasons, you struggled to come up with one, except he's more experienced, or in other words, older.

Kennedy also hits the s*** out of Red Sox and Yankee pitching. I like experienced accomplished players, not older players simply for experience sake.

[a700hitter]

He hits for average, has an excellent eye, and plays good defense.

 

He has tools.

You have just described Loretta, but he has done these things at the ML level. Pedroia has avg speed, avg arm, below avg. power and avg. range. In other words, he is nothing special.

His range is alot better than Loretta's and so is his power. You only seen him on TV. You have no idea what he has done outside of a few times you watched him on tv.

Loretta barely has avg. range, and Loretta also has below average power, so even if he is better than Loretta in these categories that is not saying much.

[RoyNHSox]

On a positive note Snyder is pitching a pretty good game today. Too bad there’s been no offense to support his outing.

700, my memory is not faulty. You always say ridiculous things, get chewed out and conveniently forget they ever happened. Now, having a lot of packing to do in the next couple days, and a life to tend to, I'm not going to dig up threads from ST when you put down papelbon and June when lester got called up. Of course you said negative things about Papelbon during ST. Most people did. And you did say you hoped Lester would fail and got chewed out nicely by a couple of people. My memory is not faulty, my laziness makes me not want to proove it and to be honest, putting the effort into this isn't worth it. This whole site knows what a windbag you are, so it doesn't behoove me to dig up proof for what everyone already knows. Its just tiring. I don't even dislike you, I just can't stand reading what you have to say about baseball, but i dont know why whenever I see your posts I have to read them. I'm probably a masochist.

 

And for the love of god stop using little internet put downs like POS, STFU and whatever others you have. For an adult you sure do behave like a little kid sometimes.

[AlexanderTheGreat13]

Good AB by Pedroia.

[jsinger121]

Pedroia earned that walk with a 13 pitch at-bat

[RoyNHSox]

GREAT AB from Pedroia. Time for some runs.

[AlexanderTheGreat13]

AB's like that can kill a pitcher.

[CrespoBlows]

Kennedy also hits the s*** out of Red Sox and Yankee pitching. I like experienced accomplished players, not older players simply for experience sake.

 

There you go again. You want Kennedy.

 

Find that thread.

 

Now you don't. Look in the Angels game, where the Red Sox blew a lead and ended up losing 12-5. You said, "I'd rather have Kennedy, because he has big hits, and more experencied (cliche)." You're wrong, so you flip-flip, or accuse the other guy of not understanding your point. It's getting old, man. You can't be right all the time.

 

You have just described Loretta, but he has done these things at the ML level. Pedroia has avg speed, avg arm, below avg. power and avg. range. In other words, he is nothing special.

 

As players move toward their prime years, they tend to get better. As players reach 35+, Father Time kicks their ass.

 

Plus, you're saying that Pedroia is nothing special after a whopping 15 AB's. Am I the only one who sees the faulty logic here?

Of course you said negative things about Papelbon during ST.

In ST, my comments about Papelbon were that he should have started the season in the pen, because I had feared that 200+ inning could damage the kid. I got a lot of argument about that. We even went so far as to predict his number of innings. I predicted a maximum of 130-140. No one predicted lower. I don't know how you could consider that to be negative. I guess if someone disagrees with your assessment of a player, you consider that to be a negative comment.

And you did say you hoped Lester would fail and got chewed out nicely by a couple of people.

I did say that Lester was not major league ready, and I did not think he would be major league ready this year, maybe not even in 2007. How many people think he belongs in the majors right now? He's here completely out of necessity. Saying that someone is not ready is way different than hoping he fails. In fact in my post I said that I hoped that I was wrong.

It's not my fault that you are a lazy, masochistic, sicko, but if you are going to criticize my posts on this board, do the research or stfu. I really hope you do more research for your school papers.

 

btw: In ST, I did root against that Tampa/Yankee bag of s*** Flash Flaherty, because I did not want him to make the roster, but if he had, I would root for him even though he is a POS.

[RoyNHSox]

Ibanez gets the salami. We're f***ed.

[jsinger121]

This is laughable.

[RoyNHSox]

Geez d’ya think Snyder is tired. In comes Tavarez as I type.

[jsinger121]

This is where Timlin should be pitching in mop up duty.

[a700hitter]

There you go again. You want Kennedy.

As usual you take my comments out of context. The fact that I would have wanted kennedy in a particular game or series, doesn't mean that I would value Kennedy more than Kendrick, who does have special tools. Kennedy has shown the ability to get big hits in big games against the Sox and the Yankees. In a big game today against a top RHP, I would fear Kennedy more than Kendrick. I expect that could change in the near future. That is not a flip flop. It is just an acknowledgment that Kendrick is still developing. Finally, while I know that I am not always right. You have shown an uncanny ability to be wrong almost all the time.

You're so full of s***, it's laughable.

 

I'm tired of responding to this.

 

(Remember the Guardians offense? You thought they sucked, because you never heard of the players, it spills into every other point. You never heard of Kendrick, so he sucks.)

 

BTW, where have I been wrong all the time? You're really reaching.

 

Oh, Kennedy, .743 OPS RISP, Kendrick, .822 OPS RISP.

[a700hitter]

You're so full of s***, it's laughable.

Then go pack, schoolboy. Stay here today, and I will continue to take you to school. Go learn and come back when you are ready.

[RoyNHSox]

Tavarez is still proving he hasn’t graduated from the mop up role.

[CrespoBlows]

Are you serious?

 

 

You are an idiot.

 

Kennedy .683 OPS. Kendrick .825 OPS. Great idea.

[RoyNHSox]

The game has gone from bad to ugly. At least the Sox have a run on no hits. That’s kind of good, isn’t it?

[CrespoBlows]

Finally, while I know that I am not always right. You have shown an uncanny ability to be wrong almost all the time.

 

Ha!

 

Remember you said the Guardians offense sucked, when they ranked #2 in MLB in runs scored. You don't look up your claims, you just ad-lib a lot. Plus, you're a hypocrite. You said, that I was harsh when I blasted you for being a moron, when you said the Guardians sucked, but you called ksushi a masochist (I know not, why) and me, wrong all the time. But, we probably misunderstood your statement, right?

 

BTW, Pedro Martinez on the DL. Still a bad move?

[BoSox34]

:ortiz:

[RoyNHSox]

Papi breaks up the no hitter.

[Youk Of The Nation]

Lowell!

[RoyNHSox]

Lowell knocks one out and Beak out of the game. What are the chances the Sox can come back and win this one, down 6-3?

[a700hitter]

Ha!

 

Remember you said the Guardians offense sucked, when they ranked #2 in MLB in runs scored. You don't look up your claims, you just ad-lib a lot.

I never said the Guardians offense sucked. I was critical of the lineup that they put out against the Unit in a particular game, because I felt that it was not a very good lineup. I was in no way taking up the argument about Cleveland's team offense one way or another.

Plus, you're a hypocrite. You said, that I was harsh when I blasted you for being a moron, when you said the Guardians sucked, but you called ksushi a masochist (I know not, why) and me, wrong all the time. But, we probably misunderstood your statement, right?

Yeah, you did misunderstand again. Read post #38 in this thread. He called himself a masochist. Therefore, I thought it was fair game. I went pretty easy on him considering the personal attack that he leveled at me. Score 1 for me. Crespoblows blows.

BTW, Pedro Martinez on the DL. Still a bad move?

Let's see what he does in the post-season, because that is why he is being rested.
