  1. LOL!!! Unless we are just posting to blow smoke up management's ass.
  2. If the market for a 34 year old is more than $31 million, the market for the young stud will be more.
  3. I am glad that Farrrell got called out on WEEI for the stupid base running-- too many guys thrown out on the bases. That is the responsibility of the coaches and managers. A team can be aggressive without being stupid or reckless.
  4. Anything we get from Carson Smith this year will be gravy.
  5. That is true but that doesn't mean that the FO is doing a good job, because they have more information. I am not throwing any rocks at DD here, but with all the information available to him Ben made sooo many terrible and costly decisions.
  6. And Pablo can't field, so we clearly need a 3B.
  7. If DD wants to put this team over the top, he will be buying at the TD.
  8. And I am just pointing out that the point you are making will not come into play with his opt out clause. Price will not opt out of the contract unless he can make more money. If he can make more money at age 34, it will mean that the market has exploded and that we had him below market price.
  9. And if he is not worth that money at age 34, he will not get it and the Red Sox will have to pay him.
  10. If he really a hates playing in Boston,he will make the situation intolerable and possibly we trade him. He isn't going to walk away from the money.
  11. Entitled is a stupid word in relation to sports fans.
  12. Sano took Farrell's kid deep. Good for me. I have Sano in a HR pool. I hope Farrell gets a leave of absence to watch all of his kid's games.
  13. Dream on that he will opt out. His elbow is a ticking time bomb.
  14. His absence will also reinforce that he is non-essential to the team at best.
  15. He will opt out is it means more $. The media will have nothing to do with it. The opt ou is a lose lose situation for us. There is nothing good to wish about it.
  16. They are a bunch of Tory Crown loyalists who escaped death by going to Canada.
  17. The problem isn't whether we care what the media thinks. The problem is that Price seems to care too much what they think.
  18. I'll take the year that he had last year every year of his contract. It was a strong season. The contract opt out is a lose lose for the Red Sox. If he is pitching like an ace and opts out, it will cost an equal amount or more to replace him. If he is stinking, he won't opt out and we are stuck with a lousy contract. I hadn't heard about the Eck confrontation. Price needs to grow up.
  19. They outlaw hate speech criminally. I am surprised that TalkSox isn't blocked north of the border.
  20. I don't think it will be much of an issue with the time bomb that he has for an elbow. I would be surprised if any team would top his remaining package with Boston, but then agai, it wouldn't be the first time that an agent misjudged the market.
  21. sorry, Kimmi, but you are with the rest of us kooks.
  22. So that we can pay $30 million + per year for a guy that isn't as good as Price?
  23. i am surprised that someone as old as you is surprised by the emotional roller coaster of watching baseball.
