  1. Hell yea http://cache.boston.com/bonzai-fba/Globe_Photo/2009/02/05/papi__1233842835_8638.jpg http://www.boston.com/sports/baseball/redsox/gallery/02_05_09_tatb_predictions?pg=2 A survey for predictions for the upcoming season. 1st question is asking who will lead the Red Sox in homeruns, gives you 5 options-- Jason Bay, David Ortiz, Kevin Youkilis, Jason Varitek, Other Chad Finn, who the hell put Varitek in the conversation? He's reached 20 homeruns like once and that was back in 2005 Next category for who will have most wins, Lester, Matsuzaka, Beckett, Devern Hansack, Other. Other questions have extreme longshots or players I havent even heard of. Dwayne Hosey?
  2. Cool so when i go to a Yankees game, weve got 2 new chants for him. A-Fraud and Steroids Anyways, if there was ever a year for him to rise up and carry the team (especially in October)... this is the season. Since he's been in New York, 1 trip to the ALCS, 3 losing ALDS series, and finishing in 3rd place this past season. Add on the Yankees getting the big 3 free agents, Torre's book and now testing positive for steroids for his 2003 campaign
  3. If the Pats get a 2nd & a 4th, Id be happy with that
  4. How do you figure? His contract includes incentives that could reach $2.5 million, and he was "coincidentally" signed a day before it was announced that Kotsay had surgery
  5. http://www.boston.com/sports/baseball/redsox/extras/extra_bases/2009/02/kotsay_had_back.html The Brad Wilkerson signing gives new meaning as Kotsay is out until at least May
  6. plus swapping Edwin Jackson for David Price in the rotation
  7. http://community.foxsports.com/blogs/MikeGwizdala/2009/02/03/Moose_Call_Off_Base_On_Mo More Yankee loving... Mike Mussina blasts... Mariano Rivera. Citing that Mo hasnt done much since theyve won the 4 championships
  8. With truck day approaching, though it would be good to make a thread soley for ST talk, pics, etc Jon Lester is already down in Fort Myers http://cache.boston.com/bonzai-fba/Globe_Photo/2009/02/03/23__1233699845_8887.jpg
  9. http://www.cantonrep.com/sports/x1102968025/Sunday-Special-Mangini-is-man-in-charge-but-hes-not-making-friends lol Mangini is not making friends already in Cleveland. He didnt help himself by taking down a mural of former Browns greats at the players entrance
  10. http://www.bostonherald.com/sports/baseball/other_mlb/view/2009_02_02_In_Joe_Torre_book__trainer_says_some_Jays_used_drugs/ Roger Clemens' buddy Brian McNamee is in the book, and he calls out Blue Jays players for taking steroids
  11. 3 players that still love him this offseason are Tex, Lowe and Perez (combined $276 million)
  12. http://msn.foxsports.com/mlb/story/9173224/Source:-Orioles,-Wigginton-reach-two-year-deal Ty Wigginton signs a 2 year deal with the O's, I like the signing by them. Offseason they have had compared to Toronto's, I def see them finishing above the Blue Jays
  13. http://www.insidesocal.com/dodgers/2009/02/boras-rejects-d.html Scott Boras has now turned down 2 offers from the Dodgers. First was the 2 years/$45 million with an option for a 3rd year (IMO shouldve taken that), and he just turned down a $25 million 1 year deal
  14. Good insurance to have down in the minors
  15. And Lester hasnt been pushed back and forth to the rotation/bullpen
  16. http://home.kyodo.co.jp/modules/fstStory/index.php?storyid=421720 40 year old Ken Takahashi signs a minor league deal with the Blue Jays The A's bullpen will be tough to face this season
  17. http://blogs.startribune.com/vikingsblog/?p=2455 There is growing speculation that the Vikings will make a run at Matt Cassel
  18. http://masnsports.com/2009/02/it.html Orioles acquire Rich Hill for a PTBNL
  19. Correct me if Im wrong but you cant trade players who were signed as free agents, right?
  20. lol at the thought that the Sox would cut Varitek in spring training, like they had better options for 2 roster spots. Gom do you realize the backlash (fans, clubhouse) if such a thing occured??
  21. Millar wasnt an all star for the O's, but he was a good guy to have in that lineup. Getting Jason Bay was a great coup for the FO, he quickly settled in with the Boston enviroment. Even had some big hits when it counted in the playoffs. The only question remains is will he remain a red sox past 09
  22. With Tampa Bay now in the mix, a lot of things would have to go right for Toronto and Baltimore to have a chance. "A lot" is an understaement
  23. I heard that even if its Tek/Bard, it doesnt necessarily mean that Bard will be Wake's primary catcher
