  1. And, really, that's where the post should end.
  2. This is the time of year where you hear anything and everything.
  3. Pete Abraham says Varitek picked up the option
  4. But my point is he found nothing on the open market last year and he arguably had a worse season this past year. And there really aren't any more opportunities out there this year than there were last year.
  5. cause the catching market has changed so much since last off-season?
  6. I don't know why the hell they would trade Votto
  7. Well, according to Michael Silverman of the Herald, that's not the case. He wrote the following today:
  8. I heard he was undergoing some skin rejuvenation process and that's part of it
  9. Jon Heyman says the feeling among baseball execs is that Bay will stay in Boston. Although I suspect he could be saying that to help drive up the price for Holliday, whose agent is Heyman's friend Scott Boras
  10. Why the hell would the Nats sign Wagner? He's got one, MAYBE two years left in him. Plus I'd think he wouldn't spend all that time and effort rehabbing from TJ to end his career as a damn National.
  11. He's never been given the opportunity....hence the reason his cap hit is only $1.8 million for the next two years. I'm not comparing him to Thomas, I'd take Thomas over Anderson all things being equal but a 28-year old Anderson gives better value at $1.8 mil than a 35-year old Thomas does at $5 mil
  12. It depends what they're counting on him for. As a long reliever/spot starter, it makes a ton of sense.
  13. Anytime you're talking about trading for the face of a franchise and one of the best hitters in baseball, it's unlikely and a longshot. But it makes sense for both teams, the Sox have the pieces and they have a good rapport with the Padres GM
  14. Besides having a .928 save percentage and 7 shutouts in 70 games over the last 4 seasons? Make no mistake, Kessel wanted to be anywhere he would get paid.
  15. Say what you want about the likelyhood of SD trading Gonzo but his name has been in talks for months and SD has done nothing to refute any of those reports...
  16. ^^^Would you have taken Tim Thomas or Craig Anderson/Phil Kessel?
  17. Ok, I'm not about to debate the specifics of someone using the videogame term "cheat mode" but there is something very wrong with baseball's economic system and the only ones who can't see that are those who have their Yankee caps pulled down too low. I'm not saying it's impossible for any other team to win but there's only one team that can go into any off-season without fearing that they might not be able to get the guys they want to fill their holes
  18. It's an awful, awful contract. I said before the season started that the Bruins were better off letting Thomas walk and signing Craig Anderson
  19. This is such....SUCH a good quote
  20. There may not be much of a younger core to go with if they make a deal for Halladay
