  1. Superstars make a lot of money and the Rockies were willing to pick up a substantial portion of the contract. He's healthy and poised for a comeback year. He's hitting .448 this Spring. He regularly has a .400 OBP. Theo should have pulled the trigger. He would have been shedding $8 million for Lowell and about another $2 or 3 million (not to mention the headaches) for Tavarez. If all he had to throw into the mix was Hansen, he should have pulled the trigger. The bottom of our lineup is not strong at all. Helton in the middle of the order would have made the lineup very formidable.
  2. I hate to bet against Red Sox players so I will not. I hope you are right, but I don't think Youklis has enough gap power to keep defenses honest. The OF will start playing him shallow and his average will fall to the .270's before season's end. A .270's hitter with no power and no speed is not a very marketable commodity. I still think they should have sold high on him. He has a work ethic, and that is the only thing that got him to the majors, not his talent. A ton of guys in AA and AAA have more talent.
  3. I realized a week or so ago that the choker I was remembering from the Twins was Rincon.
  4. He closed. It was nothing overpowering.
  5. I stepped away for awhile, but noticed #82 playing and batting RH. Box score said it was Iggy Suarez. I think I may have solved my Jacoby Ellsbury sighting.
  6. Romero has been consistently effective this spring, plus he seems to be very confident in his command.
  7. I think he would have been in already if he hasn't constantly revealed himself as a liar and low-life scumbag. The man doesn't have a sincere bone in his body.
  8. If Turnbow is our only option, I think I'll give Piniero a chance.
  9. I'm glad the front office refused to move him in that rumored trade for Helton.
  10. I hope this guy Drew stays healthy. He is a very smooth player. He's not flashy, but he does everything very well.
  11. It's average by second base standards.
  12. I know you were joking, but I was just clarifying for other readers that I too like young players who perform well. I like to sign them long term too.
  13. Why? I like young pitchers. Other than Papelbon and Beckett, we don't have any that have established themselves in the majors. I expect Dice K will soon prove himself. I think Lester has quite a ways to go.
  14. He'll have to get better coomand of his stuff if he wants to be more than that.
  15. He'll finish in the .270's with 13-15 HRs.
  16. Igawa with a good 5 innings tonight.
  17. There's that diving pitch again. This time he k's Morneau
  18. Youklis with his great lack of speed makes it a close play at the plate.
