They need relief help, and they need it bad. I'm assuming relief help means fixing the closer gap as well, so I figure that problem can go there. You're not going to win any games if you're bullpen can't hold a lead. I think we have a solid lineup, and while it could be better, we all know that pitching is what wins championships.

At this rate, they'll probably end up with a decent prospect for Pavano, too

Manny is the best hitter in the MLB. f*** man, he had a torn meniscus. Do you understand that kind of injury? I've had the same damn thing as him. YOU CAN'T BEND YOUR LEG. If that torn piece of his meniscus got lodged into his knee joint, it locks. I don't know the extent of it, but it's similar to Tek's injury that required surgery. They don't always need surgery because the extent of such injuries don't always require surgery, but you can NOT expect someone to f***ing "tough it out." They're still human beings. Pedroia played just over ONE month of baseball in the bigs. It's amazing how quickly people will write a kid like Pedroia off. I'm also amazed that you're content with Wily Mo, but Pedroia needs to go. What's your reasoning there? Wily Mo has "proved" himself? WMP has shown very promising signs, but he has in NO way sold me that he'll be a legitimate OFer. I believe he can be, I just need to see it. If you're willing to give WMP a starting job, then how the HELL how are you not willing to give Pedroia a chance?

Nice sample size you got there. Did you not take into account the numerous hard hit balls that were stolen from him almost once a game? What about his hot streak near the end? You need to give him a full year before you write the guy off.

You are smoking serious crack. What the f*** are you thinking? Pedroia AND Manny for ONLY MICHAEL YOUNG? I understand we'd get Soriano....but that is not nearly enough for losing Manny AND a guy like Pedroia who raked the minors. I'm not responding anymore. Credibility lost in this one.

This has been said already. And why is it so funny? It's a good move. An experienced veteran to come in and help us finish off our relatively simple regular season schedule to give Brady a rest and figure out whatever the hell is going on with him. This move does make you question whether or not Brady is okay though. He's looked like his evil twin brother the last couple games.

Holy s*** Coco, you're taking the Cowboys on the spread but the Colts on straight? Bold pick. You really think the Colts will win by 1?

You didn't have a fan favorite betray you that quickly. Nor have you had a FO that made a terrible move that kind of hurt your own team during the season.

Haha, example, that's what he said.

Ayo, welcome to TalkSox!

That was my reasoning for today's Pats/Jets game.... but we lost.

I have this MONSTER team in fantasy, it's ridiculous. In fact, Drew Brees is my backup quarterback behind Matt Hasselbeck. Doesn't look like Hasselbeck is going to start on my team anymore though. Brees, Javon, LT, Willie Parker all had HUGE games for me today.

How'd Javon do?

Wait, those actually came out? And 3 teams bid larger amounts than the Yankees? AND Seibu wasn't happy with the Sox' top bid? Jesus... I can't stand the speculation anymore. There are like 20 things being said and I can't keep track and I can't know which rumor is true so... Yeah, I'm just sitting back and waiting.

Drew's numbers at his age make me want him more than Nixon. I really don't think Nixon has anything left anymore, and besides, the salary isn't that big of a deal because a team like the Sox has the resources to deal with it.

Who do you propose we deal to get Michael Young to play SS? I like Tony G but what does Cora being on the team have anything to do with it? I'm taking some of the things you say with a grain of salt when you said that you'd be content with Tavarez as a fifth starter.

When Carmelo Anthony gets ejected for throwing his headband on the ground, you know the NBA is f***ed up. I wouldn't be surprised if, to some extent, this technical foul ******** affects the way teams are playing. I'm not going to say it's an excuse for teams to suck, but really, the way this season is going and the ******** policy for technicals this year, I wouldn't be surprised if Rasheed went 82 for 82...

They need to poll the players. If the players are happy with it, then leave it. If not, then f***ing change it (which is what I DEFINITELY expect the response to be). I don't understand how voters can determine the fate of a team's season. It's wrong in every aspect.

The Yankees' rotation is going to look pretty damn sexy in a couple of years.

Can he get 7 RBIs in 2 innings?

Taguchi starts on occasion. He's a very good bench player.
