  1. I agree that stuff wise, Matsuzaka has it all.
  2. Not true my friend. Check the stats. Igawa won 3 SO titles and won 20 games once. Matsuzaka has had great seasons followed by a few marred by injury.
  3. at the same time, I have defended youkilis on this board to the teeth. I dont care if he is the last rated 1b in all of baseball, what does your lineup need. To give you an example; The Yankees have a lineup with AS's from C, 2B, 3B, SS, and what could be all three OF positions. Their 1b is predicted to hit something like 5-6HRs, but he gets on base at a .350-.360 clip. That is PERFECT for their lineup. Same with Youkilis. The lineup has Manny and Ortiz in it. Drew may play 100 games if he ever gets signed. Vtek, Lowell and the like will chip in as well. You dont need Delgado numbers from your 1b. You need a guy who will be on base, wont clog basepaths and will score. Youk gives that to you.
  4. I find that every prediction tries to take players back to the mean, either from below towards it or dragging down those from above down to it. Every single yankee position player was predicted to decline.
  5. He was so hit or miss against us. 5-6 with an era north of 6. If I remember correctly, we'd smash the s*** out of him once a season, then he'd be pretty tough the other 3 or 4 times. Glad he is gone.
  6. Again, nobody knows what Matsuzaka can do in america. To peg him as a lights out ace while saying how s***** Igawa is kinda shines of hypocrisy. For this season, Matsuzaka will likely not be a lights out ace, more like a 2, which is fine. He may grow into an ace, but who knows.
  7. Crisp is a .050 IsoP kinda guy, so he isnt your prototypical 2 hitter. Then again, he does make pretty good contact, which is something you want out of your 2, and something that Youk is not terribly good at. But Youk's IsoP is .102, something that you dont see very often. I'd start Youk there and see what Crisp can do under lesser pressure in the bottom of the order, then re-evaluate at a month in.
  8. if you could get Petit, then more power to you. Petit is the kinda guy who could easily project as an innings eating back end of the rotation guy so long as he gets a little more seasoned. He was rushed last yr with the Marlins, the sox could afford to leave him in AAA for the yr and replace Wake next season with a young contact pitcher. If it is offered, you do it.
  9. He has a good heart? I highly doubt that, but his wit is as sharp as a tack and he makes me laugh daily. Sorry for the gender confusion. Had no idea you and VA Sox fan were chicas. Good to have another on board.
  10. corrected it for you
  11. so you admit to being a troll. Well, that settles it.
  12. that would actually be the best thing the sox could do in this entire offseason.
  13. Both are trying to protect themselves. This might get ugly.
  14. yet you live up to the stereotypes daily my friend. The left coast is the pussy coast. I'm forming new ones right now!
  15. wherefore art this home town site my good sir! Mr C belongs here, he is rather hilarious. Do you know each other?
  16. WHAT IS HE THINKING!!!! What an idiot, he is projected in the 3rd-4th round. He would have been a serious focus of our offense next yr and would have moved up a round or two. STUPID!!
  17. not many, typically 40 or so. It is short season.
  18. old. I know scaff is very interested in this as am I. The top 50 is fun to track.
  19. If the Jets could trade up to 5, Peterson would be nice.
  20. a red sox minor leaguer with plus power potential.
