  1. Turning singles into doubles is a problem. It doesn't matter who is more at fault.
  2. For all the focus on defense and pitching, we suck defensively at the catcher position. Neither Varitek or VMart can throw out even the slowest runners. Most singles will be the equivalent of doubles.
  3. I don't bash him now, but I would buy an authentic Drew jersey if he put up those numbers.
  4. You weren't the only one banging your head.
  5. There's no decision. Comeback and see if you can compete with me and Gom.
  6. Name Yaz's and Ripken's back ups who were on the bench in their later years. Yaz and Ripken with one arm tied behind their backs added more to the lineup than those guys. Sitting might have helped some personal production #'s, but it would have hurt their teams on the days they were sitting. I'd rather they do what's good for the teams than for themselves. On any given day, Yaz and Ripken were the better option for the lineup card than their backups.
  7. I did and you didn't.
  8. Run Production will be the biggest issue. Secondarily, can Dice K and Buchholz become solid and dependable starters. At least one needs to answer the bell. If neither gives a solid performance, they will have problems.
  9. I claim Adrian Gonzalez.
  10. If he can't, things will get ugly, because he is so prideful that failure will be very difficult for him. I think he would blame everyone but himself.
  11. He's not a bad outfielder. He's just afraid of walls. The wall in RF at Fenway is low an non-threatening. I can't remember him playing badly in RF on his visits to Fenway. I also can't remember an AB at Fenway where he didn't smack the ball off the monster. He's a very tough out in that ballpark.
  12. But who is going to break the news to Jeter? Is there anyone in the Yankee organization that has the balls to break the news to the Yankee icon?
  13. Nixon never quite lived up to his potential, and he could never hit lefties well. Drew is the better player, but I like Abreu better than both of them. He plays every day. He gets on base, produces run and steals bases.
  14. Doji, you are all over the place. I never said that Ortiz was going to be our clean up hitter this year, so whatever points you think you scored with that you are mistaken. I did say that if Reddick was our DH before the last 2 weeks of September that we will be 15 games out of first place. You said that I might eat my words in a couple of years. If he is a star in two or three years, that will not make me eat my words. If he is the regular DH before September 15th of this season and the Sox are not 15 games out of first place, that would make me eat my words. Is that clear?
  15. I'm from Brooklyn. There's no such thing as fighting dirty. You invite a guy into your alley and then you smack him in the head with a garbage can cover.
  16. I thought only Nascar fans like cage fighting, and I told you that I don't like Nascar.
  17. Oooh, I think you stepped away a tad too late. I think this is another personal attack. Where are the mods?
  18. Oh, that's right. It's really not a sport. It's just an athletic activity where drunk guys touch each other.
  19. Isn't Rugby the Sport played by drunken guys who just want to touch each other.
  20. Threads about Cricket are far more offensive than political threads.
