  1. "might provide some offense someday"? He hit .301 this year. Yes it was in limited time, but that's not his fault. The greatest power hitters of all time are also at the top of the K lists ... it's something you have to live with if you want the power. Talk about his glove ... fine ... but Pena's bat should not be called into question. BTW Arroyo moved to the NL ... call Josh Beckett and ask him the difference between pitching in the NL and AL.
  2. I wouldn't trade Manny for ARod even if they threw in their top 10 prospects. A guy who makes that much money ... and hits 8th in the playoffs ... no thanks.
  3. .......... yaaaa I like Trot and all, but come on.
  4. Steve Garvey isn't a HOF. Therefore being a defensive 1B should/will never mean anything.
  5. Right but he didn't win the rings. The Yankees did. I believe he was talking about singles awards.
  6. Gee did Jeter win those? I could have sworn that was the Yankees.
  7. Does is really matter if we finish in 2nd or 5th? We're not in the playoffs.
  8. Exactly ... like I said
  9. Yeah any of his numerous trips to the playoffs illustrate my point.
  10. I know this isn't normal, but I did this crazy thing called ... looking at a players entire career rather than 1 drive. There isn't a less clutch player than Peyton Manning in the NFL today. You have a team as good as the Colts, and you've still never seen a Super Bowl ... there's a reason for that.
  11. HAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHA Peyton Manning is to clutch, as ARod is to .......... clutch.
  12. What does clutch even mean? I swear you guys just make that up to make Ortiz look better /atypicalyankeefan
  13. Not using Papelbon as the closer is a waste of his talents. There aren't many pitchers that have the balls to be as good a closer as Paps is. You have to be a special kind of pitcher to close and Paps is that pitcher. You would honestly rather have Paps in the rotation and a Foulke/Timlin/Hansen/FA cluster f*** trying to close games out? Personally I'd like to gaurrenty myself 40 wins in close games.
  14. Yeah he has no business in the NFL anyway. The Cards are to blame.
  15. Who is more pathetic ... Kurt Warner or Matt Leinart?
  16. Where has he shown the ability to be a MLB starter for a full season? Oh that's right he hasn't. So I could throw 500 Innings in 365 days as long as I have the right amount of rest inbetween my throwing? Yeah I don't think so. The fact is that you're changing the stress on his arm every year. One year you have the stress that closing puts on it ... then you change that type of stress to the stress a starter has on his arm .... then you change it again ... then you change it again. I just cannot understand why you're trying to make our dominate closer be a starter ... it makes no sense. Why not have Ortiz play first so we can get another DH? Because Ortiz is the best DH in the game, you say? Well Paps is the best closer. For once we need to learn something from the Yankees. When you find a dominate closer you let him close.
  17. Well now it looks like Jeter won't do something a Pittsburgh Pirate is going to do. And yeah Optimist there's a huge difference between a Pirate and a Yankee doing it. Jeter has 200 million in protection in that lineup ... freddy sanchez has Jason Bay.
  18. OK so now instead of having a dominant closer we have a pitcher who is gonna get yanked in the 4th inning cause his pitch count is too high. SWEET! Do you really not see that going from throwing 75 innings to 200 innings to 75 innings to 200 innings is going to destroy his arm?
