Mid 90's meaning 95 mph, which isn't bad. Gigantic gaylord, haha, so tasteless and orginal
-
I haven't even brought up the Devil Rays, and you seem to be Billy Beane's f*** buddy.
-
Uh, yeah he's hit 98 a couple of times http://soxprospects.com/players/papelbon-jon.htm
-
A guy with a 98 mph fastball, and two other plus pitches is a decent reliever? Under the Theo regime, I haven't seen much of the bad contract OK you don't like Moneyball, and your not an A's fan. Agreed.
-
I'll do 20
-
Papelbon = decent reliever And you seemed so willing to back the Mets on another subject And here, you love Moneyball a lot.
-
Either your a closet A's fan or an extremly pessimistic Red Sox fan

Their offense is really good, I agree with you there. They have don't have much of a bullpen, if you consider Dotel a quality closer, then that's your opinion. Who else is in there besides Mecir? Don't bring up Street, he has failed to throw one pitch in the majors, and Garica got lit up in his apperance. I'm not saying the A's are going to suck forever, they'll be really good a year from now, but trying to have rookies win it all? I don't think that's going to go so well, espically this year. BTW, I went to the Coliseum to see a day game, it was a nice place to go, cheap tickets, good view, and good food. They need to fix up the outfield seats, and elimate those s*** seats way up on top.

Pete Rose had the all time most hits, without question he belongs in the hall of fame.
-
So if people don't go it's because of the stadium? Doesn't make much sense considering Network Coliseum is a pretty nice place to go watch a game, you should get out in see one being an A's fan in all. The Mariners had a steep drop in attendance this year, why? Because of the team's poor play. The Devil Rays never sell out, but they sold half the stadium when they won 13 in a row. People go to see winning teams, regardless of who's on it. And to quote moneyball "Lose with stars, and no one shows, "win with the unknowns, and they become stars." That's what Beane is trying to do, and he has done a great job of doing it. But trying to win with all rookies? C'mon this isn't the NFL or NBA.
-
Um, remember when the A's won 22 in a row? They sold out the Coliseum 5 consective times
-
Which they will next year, they'll go 70-92 next year. BTW are you an A's fan?
-
Hey ahhchon did we agree on a $10 dollar bet yet?
-
CURT SCHILLING IS AN *******?!!!! Anyone who donates money, and espically time to cure a deadly disease is a good guy to me.
-
What? You just said he needs to go in, because he didn't hit 300 HR Did you mean that's not the only reason? He hasn't done anything else that would jump out at you.
-
Did I just read Papelbon as a decent reliever? I just saw this. He's got a fastball that is reguarly thrown in the mid 90's, has an outstanding slider, and changeup. Plus he's also got a good slurveball. He'll be a good frontline starter for the Sox in the near future. I've also seen this f***er play, god damn he throws some gas. I was sitting in the GA of Ed Smith, and I could hear the pop of the catcher's mitt 300 feet away
-
He's not going to get in, because of what Zenny said. I think getting in because of 300 HR isn't going to get you in anymore.

2005 Season (Sox vs. Yanks)

Since 2001 Millar's average .298 HR average: 20 HR OBP: .368 OBPS: .871 Mientkiewicz average: .276 Edge: Millar HR average: 11 HR Edge: Millar OBP: .366 Edge: Slight Millar OBPS: .778 Edge Millar -
Oh yeah, Crespo, great strategy. Let's judge a draft two and a half years after it. You can't properly judge a draft until 25 years after the fact when all players have retired. No, but you can tell on where the players are going. The A's are winning a World Series within the next 5 years. That future rotation is just too good and too scary and all of those ridiculously good young hitters they have that play very good defense as well. Have fun crying yourself to sleep when Billy Beane makes you look like an *******. Red Sox Fan? The A's haven't won anything even with the big 3, they won't win without them. They'll lose a lot of money this year with the fans staying away.

2005 Season (Sox vs. Yanks)
CrespoBlows replied to SchillingIsTheNatural's topic in Boston Red Sox Talk
It appears Manny still loves the guy, so does Johnny D, and Ortiz. Remember why Millar came out late during Game 1 of the WS intros. Manny was holding him down as a joke. You can't teach this kind of chemistry -

Think Clubhouse Chemistry -

CrespoBlows replied to SchillingIsTheNatural's topic in Boston Red Sox Talk
If we deal the "ball thief" then we can call up McCarty who has a great glove as well. Millar is also solid with the glove, and no he isn't a better hitter then Millar Since 2001 Millar's average .298 HR average: 20 HR OBP: .368 OBPS: .871 Mientkiewicz average: .276 Edge: Millar HR average: 11 HR Edge: Millar OBP: .366 Edge: Slight Millar OBPS: .778 Edge Millar Is Mientkiewicz defense, actually that big of a deal, espcially when you factor Millar's clubhouse presense -

Why? Millar is the clubhouse leader next to Varitek, he hits a lot better, and will provide protection for Ortiz and Ramirez. -
In a few words, Jim Rice and the writers NEVER got along

Oh I see, I included those sandwiched picks in between the 1st and 2nd rounds as 1st round picks. They are noted as 1st round picks by some columists I read
