  1. Waiting list is where Gom belongs. He had ample opportunity. Besides, I'm confident he gets in because somebody will dick this up, maybe even me since I'm moving in about a month.
  2. Well, when a team picks in the top 3 for a decade, they are bound to find a special player. Just think, they could have Hamilton too .
  3. If you look at the structure of his contract, it's not abundantly below what he'd get going through pre-arb and arb for the first 6 years of it. Where they make hay is in the 3 club option years.
  4. Per the format, Wright's park isn't an issue. They are 1 and 1A at 3B for a 5 years forward window, and you can make a case for either being the 1.
  5. Does a player need to be under contract to be selected?
  6. That window is going to get wide. Note to self to engage Crunchy-mode in this thread.
  7. I think the clock is fair. It's a bit unreasonable to expect everyone to be here every day. I'm just asking that people don't put it off for later in their 2 day window when they know they are up.
  8. 16 teams x 30 picks x 2 days = 960 days = 2.6 years Let's pick quick when we can folks, this thing has the potential to take a while. If it goes full clock on every pick, the winner may be the last man standing.
  9. You really should have included this information in your email to the Sox. The "this is what I do on playstation" argument is a sure fire winner.

  12. I hope Green's error is analogous to Lowell's last time Wake pitched.
  13. Yeah, pretty much however Ortiz can get on to have Youk hit with runners is a good thing at this point.
  14. Is there a stripper on the bench or something? Awful quick outs.
  15. Keep telling yourself I'm just some echo-chamber for other's work. I'm sure it soothes you while you avoid the stark truth of how much more well informed and well thought out my points are than yours. Ask anyone.

    NFL Draft

    Why would Denver move up for a WR? They have Marshall and Royal. Both young and both potential game changers.
  17. The problem is, you have an idea in your head, the idea that the team is better with Molina, and therefore you "find" evidence to support it through assumption. You are assuming that Molina can "steal" strikes that Posada can't. If this were true, it would be true of every pitcher he caught for in comparison to Posada, and it would be apparent in the stats. I say it would be apparent because the impact of a strike or ball call on the 1st pitch is a .200 swing in OPS....from there the gap gets wider. If he was able to do it regularly, you'd see suppressed offense when he caught. You did see that last year, but remember what happened. Posada caught most of the early games, when Hughes and Kennedy were s***ing all over themselves, and Molina caught their best pitcher, Mussina, all year. In 2007, when the staff was more stable, their catcher OPSA was identical. You just admitted to being impressed by common sense. This is why people think you have very little of it.
  18. Yeah, clean games help, like if Ellis doesn't boot that routine, soft liner and doubles up Gardner, it's only a 2-0 game.
