  1. I don't consider the posting fee simply because of the streams of revenue this will open up for the Red Sox
  2. did John Henry get Boras a hooker or something?
  3. I think I just made a mess in my pants....
  4. they're landing at Laurence G Hanscom Field The next flight is scheduled to go to Boca Raton which I guess means John Henry was planning on going home tonight god this is sad....
  5. I will now spend my entire afternoon tracking this flight
  6. HE'S ON THE PLANE!!!! BY GOD, HE'S ON THE PLANE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  7. 11mil is definitely reasonable considering the market today. they'd be fools not to take it
  8. Never the most talented guy but was always a great clubhouse guy and a cult hero in some respects in Boston. He will be remembered fondly
  9. if Boras is demanding $100 mil for 6 years, I say do it. Like it or not, that's what the market is at these days and unless you want to build your staff completely though your farm, this is going to be the price you're going to have to pay
  10. That would surprise me. A player doesn't hire Scott Boras if they don't care what kind of deal they get
  11. I don't root for any Yankee. I respect a lot of them and want a few on my team but there's no way I root for any. I'd want Damon, Jeter, Mo, Wang and Abreu on my team, all for obvious reasons
  12. I would still blame the FO cause they lowballed Boras/Matsuzaka with their initial offer. 7-8 mil a year for 6 years? in a market where Gil f***ing Meche gets 11 million? If thats the best offer the FO comes out with, I'll be more inclined to believe this was simply a block on the Yankees
  13. there's gonna be a lot of ups and downs with this story in the next 4 days but if no deal is reached, I place blame squarely on the FO's shoulders if Dice-K wants a deal and the FO wants a deal, then Boras has no leverage. He works for Dice-K
  14. the Matt Clement deal still looks like crap, but signings like this make it look a little less bad
  15. Turnbow would be nice
  16. Apparently, the KC Star is reporting that Meche is gonna get between 55 and 60 mil for a 5-year deal from the Royals. Incredible....
  17. the bigger jokes are guys like Ted Lilly and Gil Meche getting 10 mil a year, easily
  18. great news. not only is Lilly out of the division, he's out of the entire league
  19. doubt it, I still think Dice-K is getting 4-65
  20. Yea, the Sox are definitely gonna have to swallow the rest of his contract, no doubt about it
  21. I'm starting to wonder. Jon Lester said today his goal is to be ready for spring training. So that being said, what if Lester becomes the 5th starter and Wakefield returns to the closer role?
  22. Looks like the batting order is set, with Manny trade rumors dying down slowly each day. Time to focus on Matsuzaka and the bullpen
  23. Since it is just about official that JD Drew is a Red Sox, I will keep an open mind about him and give him the benefit of the doubt. Clearly, the market is such that $14 mil today isn't what $14 mil was as recent as 2-3 years ago the 72 games he played in '05 is really an abberation when you look at his career numbers and he's been relatively healthy 2 out of the last 3 years. He's got decent power, great ability to get on-base and is probably as good as a 5 guy in the lineup as we could've hoped for but like I said earlier, my perception of this deal hinges greatly on the outcome of this Manny thing
  24. I like it if Manny stays If not, then.....UGH
  25. Excellent news but baseball should still be on the back burner for now. Now it's about getting healthy again and building his strength back up
