  1. Hung a 6-spot on Matt Garza in just 5 IP. On the road. Waiting for updates on team stats to post offensive ranks.
  2. Mcann career OPS+ 121 Martinez career OPS+ 120
  3. My God, Ubaldo keeps putting up zeroes, and he's throwing 98 in the 8th inning versus the Diamondbacks. Jesus Christ.
  4. The real turning point for Beltre's offense so far has been home production. His road OPS has always hovered around .820, but his home OPS has always been around .740 (except 2004) so this year, he's around his customary road OPS, but has an .821 home OPS, that, coupled with a very different approach at the plate (not trying to pull everything) has yielded early dividends for him. And, of course, he's not a statue at third.
  5. Hey Doiji, you still like Lowell over Beltre?
  6. So......the Sox can't hit good pitching huh?
  7. Oh.....so now Beltre's awesome.
  8. I had quite a stream-starting run, and while Matusz' outing wasn't completely disastrous, Garza's suck bomb really did me in. Oh well, can't have a good week every week.
  9. To be a 100+ win team, you need to win 100 games, and to win 100 games, one of the key components is health.
  10. He replaced his banjo with a hammer.
  11. Curve, Changeup, Slider, that's what they're there for.
  12. And in the end, no Beckett equals no 2007 WS title, so.......but hey, at least i'm certain i can't evaluate talent since i'm just an average fan, so.....
  13. Wait, what about the other part of the roster that doesn't suck? Oh right.....all of those players were drafted/developed and/or signed thanks to your input and your expertise. I rest mine. By the way, Green was an injury replacement and Hall's a bench player. Try again.
  14. What is odd is that you: A) Completely spin the subject around. Scutaro was brought in knowing he had average-to-slightly above average D at SS but had a much more steady bat than Gonzales (as in, could actually get on base). B ) Say you know more about defensive performance than the FO, yet think Lowell, at this stage of his career, is a better defender than Beltre. You said you could evaluate defensive talent better than the FO, i sure as hell don't, and i'm an average fan who watches the games (whether you like it or not, i watch as many games as you do), therefore you are much more informed than the average fan, and your talents would be better utilized spearheading the scouting department of a team's FO. Just make the contacts and get a job in MLB. I hate to see talent wasted.
