  1. He could spell Bradley and Benitendi against lefties.
  2. If Palodios or SouthPaw777 join there will be an additional slot open and we will have a 12 team league. I will let you know.
  3. The Mets owners have still not recovered financially from the Madoff involvement. They weren't making money for a few years as their attendance fell. They were very lucky that they had a crop of young homegrown pitching studs to salvage the franchise.
  4. Craig also hit a HR. On a prior Red Sox broadcast, they were talking about how he is driving the ball again. I had assumed the organization was trying to pump up his value to generate some trade interest, but after watching a few games, I have to agree. He looks like a different guy from what we have seen over the last 2 seasons.
  5. I opened up a spot for Jose and re-sent the invitation. He might have had trouble trying to sign up, but he should be able to sign up now. Hugo has already signed up his team. Do you have a 3rd friend who wants to join.
  6. I sent invitation to the new email address. Let me know if he doesn't get it.
  7. Agreed. I found nothing crazy or bizarre about his responses as the author characterized it.
  8. There may be more to be concerned with about David Price than just his elbow. After reading the article, I don't find Price's replies as disturbing as the author does. Also, I don't agree with the authors concern that Price's contract could rival Carl Crawford's as a bust. Price did far more in 2016 than Crawford did over the life of his contract.
  9. Invitations have been sent. Let me know if they received the invitations.
  10. Great! If you have 2 friends, that would bring the league to 10 teams. I will send them both invitations tonight.
  11. We have 8 confirmed teams, so we will have a TalkSox league again in 2017. I am still working on getting 2 more teams. I have not heard back from Palodios who has participated the last few years. Also, Southpaw777 had expressed interest in joining and he was invited, but he has not confirmed. If we only have 8 teams, each team will have a lot of talent. One option to increase the degree of difficulty would be to convert the league into an AL Only league. What do you think? Depending on whether we have 8 or 10 teams the payout structure will differ. I will announce that before the draft.
  12. He has more credibility on injury issues than anyone else on this board.
  13. ^ mph is nothing to sneeze at especially when you have a hellacious slider to go with it. You are nitpicking.
  14. Not that long ago MLB had to make two $25 million loans to the Mets just to meet payroll after they moved into their new ballpark. They were having trouble making payroll. MLB might have let them go under but they had crisis with the LA Dodgers ownership at the same time.
  15. Jacko is most definitely an MD.
  16. Employers have the ultimate in accountability and they can't escape it. It's their balance sheet.
  17. With 8 mph less velocity.
  18. I never understood the whole A.J. hate stuff. I am not sure what the issue is that rubs people the wrong way. He has been strapping on the gear and doing a solid job as a catcher for a looong time.
  19. I thought I had read that every spring his elbow flares up at the beginning of Camp and then calms down. Hopefully, it doesn't flare up again until next year.
  20. I am expecting a very depressing Friday.
