  1. I'm not sure what you are talking about here. Please elaborate.
  2. J. Edgar Hoover?
  3. I just don't see there being room to give Lowell any significant playing time. Beltre and Ortiz will freak out if Lowell takes their playing time. They are both in walk years. Youk is not going to get sat down. I just don't see it working out with Lowell.
  4. Welcome back, and good luck.
  5. I screwed up putting in a poll. The choices would have been: 1. Comes north with the team as part of the bench. 2. Gets traded for someone who doesn't come north with the Sox. 3. He gets DFA's 4. He wins the job from Beltre.
  6. I think he gets DFA'd, because the rest of the league knows that we have no room for him.
  7. I'll just shut up and submit the written record for consideration.... assuming that you don't continue editing your posts after this post.
  8. That about sums it up.
  9. I can't quote something that you edit out of a post.
  10. ...and I conceded the factual point, but it had nothing to do with the the point I was trying to convey. It was not pertinent. Cut your losses.
  11. It's called context.
  12. I'd have used this post which you have edited to eliminate your statement that he was injured in 3 of his last 4 years with the Red Sox and that is why they let him go.
  13. The point of my post that started all of this was that an early shoulder injury did not prevent Clemens from being a reliable starter -- a horse. In order to prove me wrong, you'd have to prove to me that he wasn't a horse.
  14. In 1990, he pitched 228 innings, won 21 games, led the league with a 1.93 ERA (the 2nd lowest of his 24 year career), and he finished 2nd in the Cy Young voting. Yes, I guess you were right that he fell victim to a bum shoulder that season.
  15. Continue arguing irrelevant facts and you'll continue losing arguments. Just sayin. BTW Have you fact checked the # of Clemens wins and his age? just as irrelevant.
  16. No, because missing a few starts in a 20 + year career is inconsequential and irrelevant when the issue being discussed is whether Clemen's early career shoulder surgery affected his durability. It clearly didn't. You seized on the word never and proved an entirely irrelevant point. Hence, the Pyrrhic victory. I also stated that he had 350 wins and that he pitched to age 46. I'm not sure that either of those statements are correct. They are not worth researching, because precision with regard to those facts is irrelevant to the argument. Must I teach you everything.
  17. It shortened his career to age 46.
  18. I hope his house burns down and he has to live in a welfare motel. I hope that I see him panhandling some day so I can spit in his change cup.
