  1. I hate him because he was an a-hole during his years with Tampa. Remember all those brawls. And the last couple of years he has been with the Yanks. I hate him. Cut him, and send him to retirement.
  2. Willie Mo crushes the ball. They should get him if the price is not too high.
  3. Like when he wanted to be traded by Milwaukee, he admitted to deliberately making errors. What a gamer! What else would I expect from 26. He must watch Yankee games through Rose-colored glasses.
  4. I think Wells might retire if traded to to the Nats. If he is not willing to stay on the East Coast, why would he go to an East coast city with worse traffic than Boston. As for Wake's catcher, I hope Flash Flaherty gets cut on March 31st. I hate that guy.
  5. IMO they weakened their bullpen by getting Carrasco and Romero. Even though Romero's numbers look good, he wilts in big situations.
  6. Let's hope so.
  7. Plus, I believe that it allows you to get the Sox radio broadcasts from MLB on your PC--- a $5 value.
  8. I've been in favor of getting him all along. I don't have to like a guy to root for him.
  9. Tough break for Dave Wallace and the Red Sox. Hopefully, he will make a full recovery.
  10. I agree with everything you are saying. It would be a kick to see Clemens pitch for the Sox for one final season, but that doesn't mean that he isn't a jackass. I loved watching him pitch, but I could do without listening to him.
  11. He was at the end of a pretty good career at that point. I think he only had one good year after that. Tony Fernandez was a far superior fielder to PD, and he wasn't a bad offensive player either. He had more than a few good years. 26 to 6, did you ever see Fernandez play for Toronto from '83 to '90. Numbers don't tell the whole story. Fernandez was a premier fielding SS-- sure-handed, acrobatic, strong arm and great range. On a scale from 1 to 10, he was a 9.5 and PD a 7.
  12. Since 911, these ballplayers have not been able to get away with lying about their ages, because of stricter documentation standards. A lot of the latino ball players gained a year or two in that one off-season.
  13. Hopefully, his guarantees are as good as Patrick Ewing's were.
  14. Cheap shot fellas.
  15. You got that right. I saw Clemens as a rookie, and it was a privilege to watch him pitch. He is one of the all-time greats. Only a very elite few have surpassed him, but he was always a jackass, and epitomizes the term "mercenary." However, he would be a great addition to this years staff. One of the few that surpasses Rocket is Pedro who is the most spectacular and best pitcher that I have ever seen.
  16. Missing a few days is no big deal, but the truth is that coming on the heels of his trade demand and all the trade rumors, I won't exhale until he shows up and acts like his goofy Manny self. I hope he doesn't show up disgruntled.
  17. When Jeter got the SS, the Yanks hadn't been to a WS in 15 years. In those years, it was not unusual for rookies, especially MIFs, to get a shot at starting.
  18. As tough a guy as Rocket was on the mound, I was disappointed when Tony Phillips (I think) charged the mound. Rocket stood his ground until the last moment when he threw his glove in the guy's face and then side-stepped him. It struck me as a little cowardly.
  19. It's got nothing to do with violence. No one except Ortiz can call him out about this, because Manny can tell them all to F off until they put up his kind of numbers. If some Chad Curtis-type gets in his face, he will find himself on the waiver wire pretty quick.
  20. And you would be cut from the team before they stopped the bleeding. Do you remember when Chad Curtis criticized Jeter's behavior during a fight. He was gone no long after, and Jeter was a only second or third year player. Manny is a bona fide superstar heading to the Hall of Fame.
  21. That's their mistake. There will be MLB at the same time. I'll be watching the Grapfruit Games.
  22. He may not be healthy for quite some time. He still canot push off his foot.
  23. I wish MLB would cancel the WBC. IMO is that it is going to be a bomb. I have no interest in this tournament.
  24. ...and he was robbed of the MVP in 1999.
