I have not set the date yet.

Stottlemyre has had leukemia for a number of years and one of his sons died from it.

He was busy knocking off the last 5 lbs.
-
I have been beating your ass like a drum for the last 2 seasons.

I think he started it at 16. -
This is a case where the eyes and the stats tell you that Manny was not a good outfielder, but he was an outfielder and that Hanley was not an outfielder. He was that bad. Any NFL linebacker or punch drunk fighter who never saw a baseball could have played LF at Hanley's level of proficiency.
-
I think it would be ideal if we added two more teams. Pal, are you going to join?
-
At least it doesn't stress him so much that he will not participate.
-
Hanley was not only much worse than Manny, but he is probably the worst outfielder that I have seen. A close second was Daniel Murphy of the Mets, but the Mets ended that experiment much sooner than we ended the Hanley OF experiment.
-
It would not have been an issue. Hanley was not only much worse than Manny who had outfield instincts, because he was an Outfielder and who knew his strengths and weaknesses. He did not have a strong arm, but he compensated by releasing the ball very quickly. He also had a very accurate arm. Manny played very shallow in LF and caught a lot of balls that would have dropped in as hits.
-
Manny was like Yaz in LF compared to Hanley. And he hit like Ted Williams and Babe Ruth compared to Hanley.

If you create a new account using the same email address, I will send an invitation to that email to replace yourself as owner.

Last year's CFer.

Accountability? What a quaint concept.
-
I wasn't making a comparison to DD-- just noting that your comments do not excuse BC's failure in 2015.
-
To refute your 2 points: 1. It is the GM's job to convince ownership of your strategy. He either had the same strategy as Henry or failed to communicate a winning strategy. Either way, he failed. 2. No, the 2015 staff was not good enough, not on paper and not on the field. Many of us knew that going into the season.

Holt is a much less expensive version of Zobrist. He's not as good yet. Zobrist's break out year was when he was 28. Holt is only 27.

2016 Red Sox Hot Stove Discussion Thread

He has a live arm, but he is a trainwreck. -
And he called Doji and MVP old fools.
-
He is working very hard behind the scenes.
-
He is given too much credit just by the fact that we are still talking about him. Goodbye and good luck. He is no longer a factor, so he doesn't matter.
-
Pablo was never d that good of a player that he should have gotten the contract that he got. And he has been declining precipitously against lefties.

I like the way this kid thinks. He is a future GM: http://fullcount.weei.com/sports/boston/baseball/red-sox/2016/02/13/kid-asks-giants-manager-bruce-bochy-to-take-back-pablo-sandoval/
