Ceverelli is a fan of 2 girls 1 cup.

Essentially what we see here is QQ I DONT WANT TO PROVE ANYTHING QQ.

Very true, and keeping him out of divisional rivals is a good thing too.

But at 6 years/$30 million for a possible MR/SU type guy, I'm not sure...but we'll see.

There is some question to his durability in the longhaul where he might be a closer type guy instead. As well when throwing for teams he was in the 91-94 mph range, while good, isn't Billy Wagner starting ya know?

I wouldn't say that b/c they've almost given up on Chris Davis and Lowell would give them a chance to either A). Spell Davis or . Replace him.

Lowry would be an interesting option, but he has teams looking at him for MLB rotations at the moment like Seattle where as he'd be in Pawtuckett with us. What I'd like to take a look at is maybe another bench player if possible, and the trade of Mike Lowell out of Boston. I'd love to see Max Ramirez obtained still if possible if not a LOOGY.

Essentially I'm going to agree with Dipre, the fangraph you use is allowing our strong positions to carry our lesser positions. However when you look at the most important defenders, (up the middle defense) the # of games started by Julio Lugo and Nick Green are a tremendous discomfort to the overall defense, as well as Ellsbury's very much lack of defensive skill at the moment. Our catchers suck hard in terms of throwing runners out, as the Angels ran on us all day long. In reality the team as currently constructed is less about the 3R HR, and moreso about winning that 3-2 or 3-1 game with strong pitching, and depth there, as well as a very strong defense. With the additions of Beltre, Scutaro and Cameron and the shift of Ellsbury to LF, where in limited action has an excellent UZR rating..leaves us with only catcher as a weakness in terms of defense. Enjoy the season, you're going to get old school Boston baseball, being blue collar and grinded out.

Jackson, I'm still waiting for a response to my initial question. If you can't provide me with a sound arguement, I'll be forced to skip your posts in the future.

JACKSON PLZ STATE A MEMBER OF THE YANKEES BENCH BETTER BILL HALL?!?!

Name one bench player on the Yankees roster better.

With adding on Beltre and Hall and dismissing Kotchman, with the $$ added by Brewers...its only $2 million more per year...

If you think Cervelli will be much more than a Josh Bard you're fooling yourself.

He's talking about his Red Sox bias and how everything the Sawx and Red Sawx Nation does is idiotic.

I wouldn't mind Adam Dunn to play 1B and Brad Hawpe to DH.

I hoped some one would giggle.

1. Jorge Posada - Old and can't throw out runners 2. Mark Teixeira - Can't be THE guy in a line up 3. Robinson Cano - Which Cano shows up? 4. Derek Jeter - Bad defensive SS 5. Alex Rodriguez - N/A 6. Brett Gardner - Scott Podsednik V2 (not a bad thing) 7. Nick Johnson - DH with no HR power (although in the new YS who knows) 8. Curtis Granderson - I can't wait to Lester next year 9. Nick Swisher - Lawl (yes thats lol if you were to say it) which Swish shows up? 10. CC Sabathia - Fatty. 11. Andy Pettitte - He's what 40... 12. AJ Burnett - Good playoff performance 13. Javier Vazquez - Back in the AL...LAWL AGAIN. 14. Joba Chamberlain - When's he going to put in a good year? 15. Phil Hughes - Star SP prospect turned to star MR... 16. Damaso Marte - LOL 17. David Robertson - He's interesting... 18. Alfredo Aceves - He's interesting... 19. Mariano Rivera - N/A Your bench is horrible.

I got two pages left to read but while at work I don't have time to do one big post so I'll do several little ones.. I see that there's a big discrepency with the 2010 team is the luxury tax threshold and Matt Holliday in LF... In 2011 free agents: 1B/C Victor Martinez 1B/OF Adam Dunn 1B/3B Jorge Cantu 1B/3B Garrett Atkins 1B Albert Pujols (Team Option) 1B Derek Lee 1B Paul Konerko 1B Carlos Pena SS Derek Jeter SS/3B Jhonny Peralta SS Jose Reyes 3B Aramis Ramirez OF Carl Crawford OF Manny Ramirez OF Jayson Werth OF Brad Hawpe OF Jose Guillen DH David Ortiz DH Jason Kubel SP Matt Cain (Vesting Option) SP Jeff Francis (Club Option) SP Rich Harden (Mutual Option) SP Hiroki Kuroda SP Aaron Harang SP Cliff Lee SP Brandon Webb SP Chris Young MR Matt Capps MR Brian Fuentes MR Chad Qualls MR Mariano Rivera MR Billy Wagner MR Rafael Soriano MR Huston Street MR Kerry Wood MR Grant Balfour MR Jesse Crain MR J.J.

Gee didn't he finish up in LF/DH for the Yankees?

I heard Derek Jeter was cute...

Baltimore is reported 8 years/$130 million in an offer.

If I wasn't posting at work I so would have owned him quicker.
