  1. Can we pencil the Chargers into the conference championship?
  2. That logic makes little sense, to say the least. What you seem to be saying is that, if Kyle Snyder and Matsuzaka came over this year, we'd have to say that Snyder could be at least a number four? I'm not discounting Igawa, because he's making the transition from the Japanese league to MLB, we're discounting him because of his weak fastball, and bad scouting reports.
  3. I don't get it, why would the Angels offer two established young pitchers, and an elite set-up man, for Rodriguez? There's no way in hell that deal was even discussed.
  4. If Igawa gets 7.89 runs per game of support, he will, without a freaking doubt, win 17 games. (Unless he's hurt, and this assumes that he will replicate Johnson ERA of 5.00, which I think he will come pretty close to matching) For him not to win 17 games, he'd have to pitch so badly in numerous games, that his ERA would probably be in the Kyle Snyder range. Wins are a pretty poor measurement of a pitcher. I'd take the Unit because of his low WHIP, and high strikeout numbers. I think he's the better bet for 2007. If Johnson came back to New York, he could possibly win 20 games.
  5. I don't know who the best option is. Even with the addition of Pinerio, I'm still not in love with this bullpen. I think if Craig Hansen stops pitching like a pussy, and actually challenges hitters with his 98mph fastball, he could be the closer. The Yankees starting rotation is very average, I don't see why I'm supposed to fear this team right now.
  6. Hansen has incredible stuff, let's see how he does, now that Theo isn't trying him out as a starter. If he sucks, I'd go to Donnelly. Pinerio is going to get absolutely murdered.
  7. This guy has been in a sharp decline the last three years, this signing will likely be a complete waste of money.
  8. When the Dolphins were 4-12 (the year Brady threw an interception from his ass, allowing the Dolphins to cap a 14 point comeback), Jim Bates was the coach, who, in my opinion, would be an excellent choice to return to the organization. He has a strong rapport with the members of the defense, but he probably needs to be paired with a strong offensive coordinator. (Maybe Ken Wisenhunt?)
  9. Pencil in every fifth day as a loss.
  10. D-O-U-C-H-E Nick, I thought you were all about honesty and integrity? I guess that's were Dante Culpepper learned to say that he's dedicated to football with a straight face.
  11. If the Red Sox can find a pitcher who puts up a 3.50 ERA, then that closer role should be OK. The Tigers got there with Jones, (granted with Zumaya in front), the Cardinals got there with Isringhausen and Wainwright.
  12. Other than Clement inking with the Red Sox, I can't think of another move I hated more.
  13. Four million? Gagne was a better bet at six.
  14. Date & Time Favorite ............. Spread ................ Underdog 1/6 4:30 ET At Indianapolis .......... -6.5 ...................... Kansas City 1/6 8:00 ET At Seattle .................. -3 ............................... Dallas 1/7 1:00 ET At New England ......... -9 .............................. NY Jets 1/7 4:30 ET At Philadelphia .......... -6.5 ......................... NY Giants
  15. Moss had one hell of a playoff series, which seems to be carrying over in the DWL. He's at a .327/.383/.582/.983 line, with 3 HR's in 55 AB's. I don't think he'll ever be a regular with the Red Sox, but I think he's ready to break out.
  16. After watching that game, how do you believe in momentum? Boise throws an interception and OU returns it for a touchdown, Boise scores a miracle TD, Peterson runs a 25 yard touchdown, Boise responds. I thought momentum was supposed to go in one direction?
  17. Unbelievable.
  18. If Hughes is in the rotation, then the Yankees chances of dealing him are pretty much zilch. Unless, they want to surrender Sanchez, Tabata, plus at least one more top prospect.
  19. Santana isn't going anywhere unless Hughes is going back to Minnesota.
