    And the D-Rays would win the NL pennant? I've said it before here. The difference between the AL and NL isn't as big as some people believe.

    You never know until it happens. And it never will (I think the time limit already passed for the DBacks to go to the AL). So it will remain just that. A hypothetical. Besides, that 7-game series means so much more than the regular season.

    Rose "accepted" his ban. If guys like Ozzie Smith and Phil Rizzuto are in the HOF, I don't see why Hodges shouldn't be in. It's all politics, anyway. Babe Ruth didn't get 100% of the votes in his first time on the ballot (who seriously thinks he isn't a HOFer?) and it took Joe DiMaggio 3 tries before getting in.

    Drew doesn't qualify as a rookie anymore. He had 209 AB in 2006.

    Compton is a city completely independent of L.A. I don't see the comparisons. It's not like we're comparing South Bronx with the rest of NYC or the Southside of Chicago with the rest of the city. To say that the Dodgers would struggle to win 70 games in the AL East is a joke. To say that any NL team would tank in an AL division is a bigger joke. Look no further than the previous World Series. The Tigers played in the toughest division in baseball and couldn't beat the team from the weakest division in baseball. Projections are purely hypothetical.

    Correction: No one east of the East River has cared for the Dodgers since they left Brooklyn.

    If Howard has another 2006-type season, he'll probably end up as one of the highest-paid guys in the game (in the $20M range). Then they'll trade him for scrap minor leaguers à la Abreu.

    Camden makes Compton look like a gated community.

    I was referring to guys in the rotation that played the entire season. I don't consider guys like Holtz or Alvarez or Clement. Back to the original topic, no, the Sox are not the #1 rotation in baseball, regardless of how much of an aberration you thought 2006 was for Beckett.

    Okay, so now it's the weather that was killing him? He did lead the team in games started and innings pitched, but he also had the highest ERA on your team and a very horrible WHIP. Wins are the worst way to judge a pitcher's value (remember the six-homer game by Wakefield).

    The only reason the Sox traded for him was because of the fire sale Florida had. It's not like Boston asked the Marlins, "What do you guys want for Beckett?" Beinfest was shopping him around after 2005. Gee, he's entering his prime years and he's been on the DL nine times already? Sound like too big of a risk to trade away premier talent for him.

    Marty was also responsible for Eric Parker fumbling that punt in the third quarter.

    You don't have to be a big name to step up. Look at the 2002 version of Francisco Rodriguez. But you can't say that the Sox have the best rotation in baseball if they have a lot of question marks, which is what some of us are trying to say.
  19. Rodney Harrison
    You can guarantee all you want, but until we all see results out of Matsuzaka, everything you say is based on hypotheticals, and they hold no weight in an argument.

    Beckett? lol... The guy has 1 decent year and suddenly he is a great pitcher (who just had an "off year")? The only thing Beckett has over Robertson is the WS ring and no WS errors. Robertson has been improving the last four years. The only things that Beckett had going up were his win total (before 2005, he never had a 10-win season) and the number of hits, HRs, and ERs given up.

    Better and deeper? Aside from Kenny Rogers, they don't have anyone else in their rotation past 40. They have a much younger staff in Bonderman, Robertson, and Verlander. The Sox have a lot of question marks, but I'd still rank them ahead of the Yankees' rotation.

    14-2 should not get you fired, regardless of your lack of playoff success. The fact that SD lost its head coach and BOTH their coordinators means that the front office is a mess. AJ Smith is a control freak. I don't think you'll do any better than 14-2 and HFA throughout the playoffs.
