  1. Oh, I remember discussion about him playing CF, but I thought he actually played some CF in Spring Training for the Sox.
  2. Maybe SCM33 is not far off the mark. In this article by John Tomase of the Boston Herald, he projects Salty as the 2011 starting catcher. http://www.bostonherald.com/sports/baseball/red_sox/view/20100905for_sox_offseason_to_dawn_early/
  3. Jeter has that Roberto Alomar look. Alomar was chugging along at a high level of excellence. People were talking about him getting 4,000 hits like they have talked about Jeter getting 4,000 hits and then it was gone. After the first year, there were some excuses about an off year etc. He hit .266 that year at age 34. That was the beginning of the end. He played 2 more years and got a total of 178 hits and was out of baseball by age 36. He finished with 2,724 hits.
  4. More FO dumpster diving. It looks like we will have a month of watching Francona take out the trash. Look at today's lineup:McDonald and Lowrie at the top and Hall, Navarro, and Kalish all in the same lineup. Why don't they play Nava too? This way Coello will still think he is in the Independent league.
  5. This guy is a bust. Theo is stubbornly clinging to the first prospect scouting reports for this guy. Two teams have thrown in the towel on him. At least he didn't cost much. Hopefully, Theo still pursues a catcher for 2011.
  6. Drew had a terrible Double Header too.
  7. The Mets said the same thing after last season. This year all of their big guns have been injured again.
  8. They died last Saturday night. They've looked dead since then. That's when the team gave up -- after that game.
  9. Ortiz had a terrible double header. Hopefully he goes deep tomorrow.
  10. Even with the rotation problems, the post season is setting up as a cake walk for the Yankees. The Rangers and Twins have historically been post-season patsies for the Yanks, and I don't think the Rays will be able to stop them if the Rays get to the ALCS. The thought of back to back championships is completely repugnant to me. I will, however, try to make the best of a terrible situation. Last season, my gambling winnings went to buy my new Samsung HDTV. I need to set a goal this year.
  11. It wasn't much of a collision, and I don't think there is anything definitive about the causes of his subsequent injuries.
  12. If he keeps rebreaking ribs without contact, maybe there is something else wrong with him. I don't know how that happens. Maybe Jacko knows.
  13. Kalish has some good skills. He runs well and has excellent base running instincts. He also has excellent fielding skill He gets a good break on balls and runs them down very well. Nava has very marginal skills at best.
  14. It looked like Nava stuck his leg out to get hit with that pitch.
  15. I clearly said that he had a bad rep for commitment in the minors. I am saying (not anyone else) that I am not surprised that he has been out so long because he was known to have commitment issues in the minors and Youk still thinks he has commitment issues. Is that clear enough for you, Dutchy. Please post some pictures.
  16. Runner on 3rd and no outs and the 2, 3, and 4 hitters can't get him home.
  17. I believe we were discussing commitment.
  18. Youkilis is a good barometer for me. I'll side with him on just about any baseball issue.
