  1. http://startelegramsports.typepad.com/foul_territory/2009/01/more-hope.html The Rangers wont mind dealing Salty for Clay straight up
  2. It is a good deal for the Yanks Pettitte is a durable guy so theres no need to put into bold on his medical reports. But Curt did pass a physical before the 2008 season, that turned out nicely Im not wishing for injury, every single rotation has question marks. That cant be denied. A lot of things have to go right (2004 Sox is rare team to have any of the 5 starters go on the DL). Hell Lowe who was abysmal during the season, was a force in the playoffs
  3. Link to a news source that says a trade for a young catcher cant happen before the season starts?
  4. By then it will be 2 weeks to pitchers and catchers, I dont think thats too short of time to strike a deal for a young stud The key for any team who gives up $5 million in chump change plus incentives... is the draft picks that are now a hot commodity as ever
  5. Red Sox gave Tek a Saturday deadline http://www.bostonherald.com/sports/baseball/red_sox/view.bg?articleid=1148022&srvc=sports&position=0 Fail, wtf? Scott Boras was boasting that Tek should get 4 years/$52 million. Theo responded "Well if you think you can get anything close to that, than that team wont mind giving up draft picks" And it wouldnt have been a bad deal had he accepted arbitration and been locked up for another year at $10 million To end my post.... really people enough with the fail, its been run into the ground awhile ago
  6. http://msn.foxsports.com/mlb/story/9136992/Sources:-Yanks,-Pettitte-closing-on-1-year-deal A 1 year deal is close to being finalized. It will be less than $10 million, but incentives could push it up to his 2008 salary of $16 million
  7. Def getting this book
  8. Good guy to be added on as an anchor for the mlb network
  9. Even with a Varitek signing, theres been numerous reports that it wouldnt negate a trade for a young catching stud. The figure thats out there for Varitek, 2 years/$10 million (including option) is what I had figured going into the offseason. http://blogs.weei.com/robbradford/2009/01/25/deadline-for-varitek/
  10. Cant wait to see the Sox do some batting practive off of Pauley and his high 80's fastball
  11. Go Steelers (not in reference to the McGahee injury, just dont want to see Arizona win it all)
  12. http://msn.foxsports.com/mlb/story/9097924/Sources:-Cubs-trade-CF-Pie-to-Orioles Cubs trade Felix Pie to Baltimore for starting pitcher Olson
  13. http://www.boston.com/sports/baseball/articles/2009/01/18/deep_thoughts_on_players/?page=4 Seattle might have interest in Varitek
  14. This gave me a good laugh this morning http://www/mlbtraderumors.com
  15. Been drinking there buddy? lol EDIT: Solid deal for Baltimore
  16. http://msn.foxsports.com/nfl/story/9090742/Sources:-Bucs-D-coordinator-to-replace-Gruden Bucs' D coordinator Raheem Morris has been tapped tp take over
  17. Plus his gold glove was a one year wonder because he's overrated like Jeter EDIT: For kicks here is the calcualted average of 2008 2nd baseman (min 500 plate appearances) 145 games- 158 for 558 (.283 avg) (.375 obp) (.437 slg) (.812 ops) 33 Doubles, 4 Triples, 15 Hrs, 58 RBIs, 88 Runs, 51 Walks, 86 Ks, 14 SBs (5 CS)
  18. Pedroia's homeruns barely get out... well the green monster seats (which are 37 feet from the ground) I guess make it seem that way. He got lucky on getting those 17 Hrs then. The Sox are foolish for signing Pedroia and Youk to these extensions because its all downhill from here!!
  19. http://www.boston.com/sports/baseball/redsox/extras/extra_bases/ Varitek and Henry had met for 90 minutes
  20. http://www.boston.com/sports/baseball/redsox/extras/thebuzz/ It was Varitek who requested the meeting
