  1. I think you mean proven ABOVE replacement.
  2. Both you and I agree that he it was a pipe dream to trade him. Why waste your time then?
  3. This is like comparing diarrhea to a case of the runs. Same s***...and any way you look at it...it's s***.
  4. I thought it was insane of them. Theo wasted his time at the trade deadline and let Lee go to the Phillies. I cannot understand how a team will take the best pitcher on the planet, without question, under 25 years old, and NOT build around him. It made no sense. You could sign Felix to a 10 year contract RIGHT NOW..and he'd be a year older than Halladay when the contract would be finished [i didn't check the ages, I'm too lazy, but I presume I can't be more than a year off]. I would rather go bankrupt as a team than trade Felix if I was the Mariners GM. f*** that. If I was the Mariners, and I absolutely had to trade him...I'd START by asking for Youkilis AND Buchholz with maybe a little Pedroia thrown in. From the Yankees, Hughes, Joba, Jackson and Montero MIGHT keep me from hanging up on you. He's that good.
  5. Let me ask you something... Would you trade Wagner and Carter [or whoever was the guy they traded for Wagner] for Scutaro?
  6. Cote d'Ivoire = Ivory Coast. Direct French translation. I don't really see a "Group of Death". It's really pretty even.
  7. I'm still pissed Egypt didn't make it. That would have been heaven for me. Egypt and USA in the same group? f***ing pandemonium [i work four blocks from the largest Egyptian community in NYC...and they all hate me because they think I'm a traitor rooting for the USA over Egypt]. You have no idea the mileage I got when the USA beat Egypt in the FIFA Champions Cup. The World Cup? Four years of telling them that they are all my bitches would have been f***ing priceless. Oh well...
  8. One of my related PEEPS!!! However, if you rooted for the Yankees, you'd have your own country by now.
  9. I think that if Figgins signs with the Mariners, Red Sox fans can forget about trading for Felix. This is a great deal for the Mariners, IMO. With Ichiro and Figgins at the top of the lineup, this team will run all day in spacious Safeco. The Mariners finished 12 games behind the Angels. If they sign Figgins, I'd say they Mariners gained three games on them. Signing Bay or Holliday, or...just imagine if they turned around and got Lackey...the West could get very interesting.
  10. I really don't understand why you guys are all upset about Scutaro. First of all, he came cheap. $5 million...you guys are complaining here? Second of all, he IS better than what you had at SS the last few years. Now, I don't think he'll have the year he had last year, but even if he regresses to his norm...is he really that bad?
  11. You're really comparing Pedroia to Jeter? Really? Seriously? I know Pedroia was kidding, I read the whole quote. Pedroia is a decent player, but he's not in Jeter's class as a player. As a competitor, yes. As a player, no.
  12. You really think Pedroia could have challenged him for SS? Gold Glove maybe, if he could reach first base from the hole. Silver Slugger? Merry Christmas. He can't out Jeter OR Cano.
  13. Shouldn't this be under General and not Red Sox? I mean, he's not a Red Sox anymore.
  14. I wonder how Jacko feels on Halladay...would he trade one of Joba/Hughes and Montero and/or Jackson?
  15. Halladay will end up in New York of the NL. You'll see. The Yankees are definitely in win-now mode. With Jeter, Rivera, Posada, and Arod on the wrong side of 32, the Yankees will go into a rebuilding mode after 2012. The addition of Halladay gives the Yankees the best shot at winning it all for the next three years. After that...we shall see.
  16. Sorry Dipre....but I had to ask. See, you're the only one who has lied and claimed others have. That's all. A simple "no, I researched it" or "yes, you got me would have sufficed". I didn't claim you were lying, I was just asking. You're the only one here we can't be sure of. That is all.
  17. This is starting to feel like Santana Part II. Same teams, same f***ing players...damn.
  18. I expect Swisher to have a worse season overall. f*** him.
  19. Dipre...did you make up these numbers or did you actually research them? Can you quote a source? Just curious.
  20. The Mets won't trade Reyes because his value is at an all-time low. You'd have to start with Buchholz and it would take more than that.
  21. Finish the quote: Your quote fragment makes him look like an *******. His full quote does not. I can't believe I'm defending a f***ing Red Sox.
  22. I think the Yankees will end up with Halladay. Reason being... The Yankees core has three years left. After three years, Jeter, Posada, Mo, Pettitte, and Arod will be retired or diminished, some probably severely. Win now, and start replacing the players down the road and they can stay very competitive.
  23. Jacko, Swisher hit like an MVP on the road. This year was an aberration. He'll probably hit better at home, and worse on the road. Personally...I think his trade value is at an all-time high. I'd see what I can get for him.
  24. Oh God...do you mean feasible? Please God...it hurts....
  25. My feelings exactly, my friend.
