    Fenway Park covered Manny's defensive problems. The rest of the outfield was relatively good. In 2004, Johnny Damon was still a good CF. Trot Nixon played above average defense in RF. Bill Mueller was average at 3B. Cabrera was good at SS. Bellhorn was average, and surprisingly Millar was OK at 1B. In 2007, the Red Sox had an outstanding defense. Crisp played HOF defense in CF. Lowell and Youkilis played Gold Glove defense at the corners. Pedroia and Drew were average. Lugo and Manny pretty bad, but the Red Sox pitching staff was second in strikeouts. Manny was helped by Fenway, and Coco Crisp being on his right. Ortiz has never been the full time 1B of a championship Red Sox club.

    I bet you that Riverside was one of the fans that asked for Manny's kids' autograph.

    Who figured Okajima out? He's been rock solid out of the pen.

    That defense that you project is awful. Jeter is below average, A-Rod is average, Cano can be very good, but he's very lazy, Matsui has never been good, Damon is absolutely awful in CF, Abreu is afraid of the RF wall, and only Ryan Howard is worse than Giambi on defense at 1B. I'd get rid of Damon, Abreu, and Matsui. Both players are old, declining with the bat, and defensive liabilites. I'd keep Nady, but platoon him with someone like Matt Stairs. I think this team's position players are too old, and the young players aren't any good for the Yankees to make any major leaps next year. They need to be patient, shed those horrible contracts, invest heavily in the draft, and then make major splashes to compliment an already strong core. Currently, they have a very old lineup, a variety of underachieving young players, and a rotation that is average.

    In other words, subjective opinion.

    This statement disqualifies you from being objective, because you've admitted you won't look at the evidence, because it does not interest you.

    Steven Jackson runs for 100 in the first half.

    Girardi must really want Mussina to get that 20th win.
  9. CrespoBlows
    Mets suck.
  10. CrespoBlows
    I'd put Kazmir ahead of Burnett.

    The Broncos are full of fail.
  12. CrespoBlows
    Youk would probably slide over.

    OU is going to run the table.

    Lackey got torched tonight, and has been fading pretty badly in September.
  15. CrespoBlows
    Nady is regressing to the mean.

    No offensive line, no WR's. He might be better when Williams and Porter get back. Tony Gonzalez should be better when Huard plays in Week 4. Tyler Thigpen would have destroyed his fantasy value. He was being targeted quite a bit. He just needs a QB to get him the ball. Huard's not that good, but he's a substantial upgrade from Tyler Thigpen.

    Giants can't hit.

    I don't think ANY stadiums should be funded. I don't get you guys are defending such illogical viewpoints, by pointing out that other teams do it. Pac Bell Park is privately subsidized.

    Steinbrenner said he examined the area for a possible site, that's as far as he got.

    What are the odds that the Yankees will leave New York? You can't compare the Yankees to JP Morgan Chase. Besides, your basic argument doesn't even hold water. JP Morgan is saying, "lower our taxes." The Yankees are saying, "On top of our sweet deal to play baseball in New York, renting the area for $10 a year, causing a $51 million debt service, we want $850 million dollars from your budget to build us a stadium."

    I thought you were talking about the city, and I didn't see you answering the question.

    Travis "Halfner" is hitting .203.
  24. CrespoBlows
    This choking Red Sox team managed to play .630 baseball in September.

    You're an idiot. The publicly funded stadium takes money out of the hands of average people, and puts it into the hands of one of the richer people in America. When he gets his new stadium built, he sees ALL OF THAT revenue. You're right it will lead to more revenue, which will be reaped in by Hank Steinbrenner. The taxpayer gets s*** on. Again.
