    Joe Maddon... isn't he the guy with the coke-bottle glasses who made out a lineup card with 2 third basemen and no DH this season?

    Ray is a human forfeit against the Yankees
  5. a700hitter
    Who the hell is Max Ramirez! Could they be giving him the back up catcher's job, making Tek the starter again and VMart being the full time first baseman?

    Branyan and Huff? Yuk!
  7. a700hitter
    You'd rather Kotchman at 1B and Youk at 3rd?

    I hope this means the ink is wet on a contract with Beltre.

    Tony Massarotti doesn't think Theo is playing things close to the vest. He thinks that he is sending a message not to get your hopes up about 2010 and 2011. http://www.boston.com/sports/columnists/massarotti/2009/12/sox_have_been_here_said_that.html

    ...and if the Queen had balls she would be the King. One thing that I have learned following the game for more than 40 years is that when you have lots of "ifs" and you need most of those "ifs" to happen in order to be successful, you are in for a rough season.

    I am hoping the name of this thread changes to Casey Kelly will be a Blue Jay.

    The Sox are interested in Crisp? http://www.boston.com/sports/baseball/redsox/extras/thebuzz/ I could live with him coming back, but we already have a 4th OFer--- don't we?

    Sheffield has suitors. http://www.boston.com/sports/baseball/redsox/extras/extra_bases/2009/12/sheffield_has_s.html Hopefully, he will not be part of a righty/lefty platoon with Hermida.

    I don't like any trade that doesn't improve the team, even if it is a blockbuster.
  16. a700hitter
    I don't like the Beltre possibility.

    That is certainly not standing pat, so why aren't you discouraged that Theo is saying that it is likely that he will stay pat?
  20. a700hitter
    You were the one with the boner in August and September about king Felix. Weren't you also promoting the acquisition of Adrian Gonzalez? Now you are okay with staying pat? What does this have to do with having faith in Theo? I am just reporting what he said, which is not very encouraging if we are expecting a big deal at these meetings. Unlike you, I do not try to figure out what he is thinking. I don't find his words encouraging. Is he playing possum? I hope so, but if he is not, I don't expect the team will have a chance of catching or beating the Yanks in 2010. He said less than 50/50.

    Theo is on the Hot Stove Report saying "forget about the Yankees." "We are going to do our thing." He said that they are not close to doing anything big, and that they may not do anything big. He says their goal is not to make a big splash, but to "build a healthy organization." He's calling this a "bridge season." f*** that. This sounds like Scutaro may be it for us. Screw that. IMO, they will not make the playoffs with the current squad. He estimates that the chances of a major move is less than 50/50. I didn't like anything that I just heard.
  22. a700hitter
    Of course this move grates on me. If Bay is going to walk, it would have been nice to get Granderson to take his place. He's a young guy, so it's not like they gave up prospects for a guy in the twilight.
  23. a700hitter
    The Yankees closed the deal before the Tigers realized that they got fleeced. Good work by them. Theo needs to step up his game.

    Next stop: Old age home, drooling, dementia and then death.

    I wouldn't be surprised if any or all of them were to this day taking the nondetectable HGH.
