  1. this makes me very happy one of my best friends told me about this and i didnt believe her so im kinda shocked it seems like it came from no where. verry verrry goood news
  2. i think this is exactly what most fans needed to see. after damon left us for the yankees and manny and wells asking for trades im sure im not the only one that was afraid what kind of message that was sending to other players throughout the league its good to know that some players are still very exited to play for the bosox and will even take a lower salary to stay
  3. im not necessarily talking about the manny trade but more of the pitching and defense philosophy itself. manny just happens to be our best hitter and worst fielder so i thought i would bring his name up
  4. the pitching and defense concept is a great one, obviously it just won the whitsox a championship. but why trade manny for defense. i think if you have one of the best pitching staffs in the game then turn around and have one of the most potent offenses ever that is better than holding teams to 2 runs agame and then scoring one. obviously even if we trade manny we wont be averaging one run a game but i like the idea of great pitching/great offense/mediocare defense rather than great pitching/great defense/and mediocare offense. whos with me?
  5. that is way to much just to get reed, i do think he is our best option but there is no way we give up marte for him especially when we have two young outfielders of our own coming up
  6. you would really trade manny for craig wilson? i dont know about that, the fourth outfielder thing sounds good to me though
  7. there is only one team spending money and yet two teams raking it in, sounds a little supicious to me, and i wouldnt throw 12 mil more at damon or tear down fenway but still we are making tons of money and i dont see it getting spent, the fo had better hope a lot of guys overacheive next year if they arent planning on doing something big
  8. now i dont no about him ever hitting .260, but there is no way yankee fans will ever love him as much as boston fans will hate him
  9. o dont worry about it i figured u were making a joke with the just kidding think i just didnt get it
  10. wtf was all of that im pretty sure i was siding with you
  11. i like the idea of other teams competing (what reason do i have not to) but the thought of making some teams suffer for making good choices or having money to spend just isnt fair ps im a redsox fan so dont push any of the yankee fan s*** on me
  12. well it really isnt like long term means like three to five years in this case most the kids we have could probably come up this year if we really needed them to and will probably be good players in 2007 so if we fill a few wholes with cheap players with all the guys we already have we could make things interesting down the stretch and i have no problem with that
  13. well i dont see youk playin long term first unless he excels this year but i do think he will get his shot to start there this year because ur not gonna get what he gives u unless u give him and someone else in a trade and im not sure who are the fa first basemen but ur not gonna get any of them for as cheap as youk comes plus hes payed his dues he deserves a shot
  14. is this completely wishful thinking or is this seriously a possibility cause it looks completely one sided to me seeing how the As dont spend money
  15. this was a great deal for us hanley was expendable because we have renteria who i think will be a completely different player next year but im all fo dumping lowell to play youks
  16. very good news
  17. he was the best i could find for "hands up"
  18. i love it when they pitch to big papi throw your hands in the air if you want manny here:thumbsup:
  19. i would love helton but when you say they would be looking to trade him now more than ever ur not suggesting we could get him for like shoppach and alvarez, it would definately take lester and someone else(someone else being someone who can play now and play well) to get him. dont think he would come cheap by any means
  20. i would love helton but when you say they would be looking to trade him now more than ever ur not suggesting we could get him for like shoppach and alvarez, it would definately take lester and someone else to get him. dont think he would come cheap by any means
  21. if we get that deal i would want roberts to start no way the padres would give that much up though
  22. vladimir can do that because he swings at pitches in the dirt and hits them out of the yard ortiz is far more patient and will walk so much he would pass bonds' single season record and ortiz is a feared hitter more feared than manny i agree but how many times did they intentional walk him? plus everytime they did how many times did you say "theyre gonna pay for that one"? with out manny you wouldnt ever say that
  23. so what im gettin at is the starters and bullpen guys comin up r home grown so why trade away our most valuable commoditee for a down grade in offense? i think if we trade manny its for a lot of very good YOUNG pitchers and try our best to replace him and find some defense through free agents
  24. he is the only starter i would even look at because im pretty sure barry zito is a fa next year and thats the guy i want to see come here definately NOT Burnett
