The delusions on NYYFans.com abound.

I did a double take when I saw that post too. I guess he is baseballs hope for the future.:dunno:
-
I think it is likely that Clemens was using in his last season with the Red Sox. His body started changing and his performance was rejuvenated in the second half.
-
nyyfans.com: Of course MLB would want to destroy its most valuable franchise. That makes sense. Whiney freaking Yankee fans!

Williams had hit more than 40 homers in a year earlier in his career. Thirty-eight was not a career high for him. In fact, none of his numbers that year were that far off Williams career norms except the .388 (compared to .344 career BA). None of it represented a marked increase in performance. Williams with his 20/10 vision was a complete freak of nature. His performance at age 38 was so unusual that you had to go back 50 years to find a good example. That should tell you something right there. Players in their late 30's as a general rule decline precipitously in performance.

MLB must be hating this. Bonds is gone from the game. McGwire is in exile. Sosa is gone. ARod will be around for maybe 8 or so years as a constant reminder of the Roids era. Nothing he accomplishes will ever wipe away the stain. The game will carry the stain until he's gone.

Peculiar timing of his advancing age?

Steroids build muscle and lean out any fat. Most users have very little fat content. Ortiz has a chubby belly, and if anyone is wondering about Manny, get a copy of the 2004 World Series DVD and you will see the rolls of fat around his midsection.

There were no penalties for cheating in 2003. Would that be considered an oxymoron?
-
But it just seems to keep biting the Yankees. No excuses here al la the whiney complaints about the Mitchell Report that the two major sources were NY guys (McNamee and Radomski). I can hardly wait for the criminal conviction of those two pigs Clemens and Bonds.
-
LMAO over the 60 minutes interview.
-
Just in time for Spring Training. There should be about 800 reporters waiting for him at his locker in Tampa. He'll probably need about 3 more shrinks. i expect that he'll hit .260 and make 40+ errors this season. I never understood the universal acceptance of the notion that he was clean. He must of had dozens of writers and media members on his payroll.
-
So much for the reverence in which he was being held, because he supposedly had been clean.
-
About 20 or so years ago Pesky was gravely ill and people didn't think he'd make it. I don't know what medical condition he had, but the guy bounced back for 20+ more years. He's got the greatest attitude which has no doubt contributed to his longevity.

...or he just got tired of the frigidly cold Boston weather.

Something to look forward to. -

How come the Red Sox doctors never pick up these injuries when they perform the physicals prior to the contract signings. Schilling's shoulder was in tatters and they didn't notice. This is why I am not very enthusiastic about Penny, Snoltz or Baldelli. -
What's up with you? Is your menstrual cycle hitting or did your mommy forget to restock the Chips Ahoy cookies?

"Whiney little girl"? "Conspiracy"? Have you been drinking on a school night? I don't care how fat he is. Paraphrasing Mickey Lolich, he's a pitcher not an athlete. Plenty of good pitchers have been over-weight. The picture is very funny, but it has to be some sort of distortion. Boomer Wells didn't have flab like that.
-
That has to be Photo-shopped. There is no way the guy has a gut like that. I have seen him up close. There's just no way. It's some sort of distortion or something.

I never said "you should never trade a back of the rotation starter for a project" My statement was: I called him a solid rotation guy, because I view him as being better than almost every team's #5 and he has been more consistent than lots of #4's. I would trade many back of the rotation guys, because most of them suck and are not solid contributors. If you are going to criticize statements of mine, please get the statement right. Although I made a simple statement, you interpreted it incorrectly.
