I'll explain why.

 

Soriano and Gonzalez...what's the point? They could have kept Wagner, who is better in my opinion, for the same money. I guess it depends on how Theo values the three. If he values Wagner as the best, then it makes no sense.

 

Lackey, I highly doubt. I think this is a two-team race. He will go back to the Angels who can ill afford losing Lackey and Figgins. The only way he doesn't is if the Yankees decide that they want a four man rotation in the playoffs next year instead of a three man one. I can't see the Red Sox getting him at all.

 

Billy Wagner is 39-year-old pitcher who was coming from elbow surgery and also didn't want to set up for Papelbon.

 

Are you really this dumb?

I thought you were talking IF's(1B/2B ). OF I would totally agree you would have probably one of the better views.

 

Infielders as well as outfielders. You don't have to be up close to get a good read on whether the player got a good jump or not.

I have to agree with Dipre here. I would have passed on Wagner too.

I glad Saito is gone and Wagner was not going to be here without having to dig really deep into our pockets because he doesn't want to be a setup man.

We had no choice cause the porn Jedi is always having problems with that wrist.

 

The reason I call Jed Lowrie the porn Jedi is cause he very rarely makes contact at the plate and lacks the range to even attempt a dive at shirt/third. So besides jerking off why are his wrists always screwed up?

Don't tell me you weren't thinking it too. Everyone was.

 

I wasn't. I was too busy thinking about other options than Marco Scutaro.

FML don't remind me. thats gonna kill us. really would rather have anything else except Jack Wilson.

Marco Scutaro is an improvement over Jed Lowrie and is offensively better than AGon but its difficult to get my gnads all pumped up over this move...Usually by my birthday they put something under my Xmas tree that makes December a bit more palatable, if this is the best they're going to do then its going to be a blue Xmas.

I still would rather not have given up the pick for only a decent player. And it's still risky to sign a SS who was already average defensively past the age of 35.

 

But Scutaro is good enough. He can hold down the fort until Lowrie or Iglesias (probably Iglesias) is ready to take over.

Well said.
