Alex Gonzalez= Great Deal

[Emmz]

Not to mention hitting in a lineup like the Red Sox's could potentially help him improve his plate discipline.

 

Exactly, this is just one of those things that we really can't afford to not atleast try to get done. Hardy is the best option out there. His off year makes him cheaper, his upside is that he's a 25-85 guy who can play the position better than most

[Dojji]

Or even just a RHH at Fenway with the Monster to play with.

[Emmz]

There's so many reasons why Hardy may actually benefit from playing here

[Dojji]

Hardy is the best option out there.

 

That might be a little excessive.

 

HANLEY is the best option out there, until we know that he isn't "out there." But there's definitely a serendipity to Hardy, and we match up far better with Milwaukee than we do with Florida.

I don't agree with that argument, though.

 

Milwaukee is a bandbox, and every park-effect measuring statistic tells you that it's actually a better hitter's park than Fenway.

[Dipre]

That might be a little excessive.

 

HANLEY is the best option out there, until we know that he isn't "out there." But there's definitely a serendipity to Hardy, and we match up far better with Milwaukee than we do with Florida.

 

I think she meant taking into consideration cost-production.

 

Hanley's expensive in both prospects and money, so by that account, Hardy would in fact be the best option.

Can you imagine what we could do with Hanley? I just don't know if Florida would part with him, but if he was an option, yeah he beats Hardy eight days a week

This too, but for someone like Hanley I still think most prices would be acceptable, he's a machine who can hit in the 25 home run range, and of course he's a very tough out, one of the best players in baseball

[The_Destroyah]

His upside is a 25 HR' date=' 90 RBI SS. Even in the AL.[/quote']

 

im going to have to disregard your argument if you choose to use a statistic as useless as RBIs.

[Dipre]

FAIL.

 

RBI, like BA is a support statistic.

 

You can use it to accentuate run production if it's not the basis of your argument.

 

I suggest you stop trying to water down this very interesting baseball discussion.

Heh.

Heh.

 

Fantastic contribution.

 

How about some image macros?

I think you can still continue the interesting discussion, that was just an oppurtunity too good to miss, you know that, cabron.

It'd have been an opportunity if it actually meant something.

 

I've disregarded RBI as the basis of an argument, never said it wasn't an imperfect measure of run contribution.

 

Don't put words in my mouth, that will irate me (ESL alert) to no end.

[Dojji]

JFC just continue the discussion, I already knew all that before I posted it, it was a joke hence the I knew exactly how you were using it I was just joking with you...

[Dojji]

Sense of humor FAIL on Dipre

[Dipre]

You asked.

 

I'm going to ask this question with zero, and i mean zero amount of sarcasm or desire to attack you personally, but:

 

Are you retarded?

 

Again, i'm asking this question legitimately.

[The_Destroyah]

OK back on topic, Hardy. he looks like quite the fit and if he panned out he could definitely help us be the frontrunners in the division next year, his OBP isn't spectacular but like we've discussed that can be forgiven by many of his other stats, not to mention the alternates are a young unproven and so far injury prone guy and a dude who hits like a blind mouse.

easy there man, this discussion can lead to places we dont wanna go, sorry for the interuption didnt realize it would create a little s*** storm lets just return to the topic at hand.

I'm not hatin'.

 

As stated, it's a legitimate question.

 

A yes or no answer will suffice.

I dont care how much you insist, it isnt a serious question and it comes off as very confrontational, I honestly suggest we just get back on topic, Im sincerely sorry for the interruption.

Enjoy being banned so much you care to repeat the experience?

[Dipre]

Enjoy being banned so much you care to repeat the experience?

 

You were the one calling me out with your inciting comment.

 

Instead of being a pussy i decided to face you head-on.

 

I could report you for helping incite though.

[Dojji]

Why don't you do that. See how that goes for you.

[The_Destroyah]

please. lets just drop it. its such a stupid and inconsequential thing its not worth the time or the bandwith that its taking up. can we just pretend it never happened, Ive apologized twice and tried to drift back into the topic so now I think its time to move on. shall we?

[Dipre]

Why don't you do that. See how that goes for you.

 

Blatant admission of your trolling ways.

 

You're always complaining about people hating on you.

 

If you don't want to be hated on, i suggest keeping your nose out of other people's arguments.

[Emmz]

Come on guys, let's just drop this thing please?
