  1. Scutaro's always been an average SS. And hey, at least "my guy" at the hot corner isn't a statue. Now that he's stopped being a bonehead, he's left you zero reasons to bitch and moan about him, so feel free to cling to past mistakes. But in the end, it all boils down to this: "Sox suck, Beltre sucks, Scutaro sucks, Drew sucks, the FO sucks".
  2. Hey, feel free to whine. He's been pretty solid.
  3. Not if you're making a relay that doesn't directly cause the run to score.
  4. Which is probably going to happen. Colorado, Los Angeles and San Fran are all rounding into form.
  5. Well from what i've seen by watching the games (and stats) the team defense has been performing pretty well since the start of May, with the notable exceptions of Bill Hall and Hermida when he plays. As for the Run Prevention problems, how much of the pitching staff's suck can you blame on the D?
  6. Do you consider the team's defense to be abysmal as we speak?
  7. But you're talking about rebuilding, not attempting to contend. In that case, you'd let said guys walk, and plug some holes via the FA market without moving young talent.
  8. But the team is full of young guys who are part of the core and veterans with unmovable contracts.
  9. I think it was a good signing. He's a good defensive OF with pop who's had his stats underminded due to park factors his entire career, and he fits well with the Sox due to his offensive approach. He K's like it's going out of style, but he's always been a good ballplayer, and they protected themselves with an excellent offensive 4th OF (Hermida, and notice 4th OF) in case of injury issues with Cameron (who's been very healthy throughout his career). It's a fluke injury. People are down on the guy, but i bet he comes back productive. But A-Gon was a sure thing. Even though Scutaro's making me look bad since he keeps getting on base and has settled down with the glove, i would have much rathered have A-Gon in the first place, and was publicly ridiculed on the forum for suggesting as much.
  10. Have you any idea of what you talk about, good sir? A) I was one of the most vocal [posters against the Scutaro signing. A-Gon should have been resigned. B ) Schoenweiss and Atchinson, really? C) Not moving Lowell was a clear failure that set up what can be described as the current IF logjam. Don't put words in my mouth, and try to be objective. Not everything they do is right, and not everything they do is wrong and deserves a whine-fest.
  11. So, from your perspective, the Curstis Granderson acquisition was also a bust? Trying to judge a signing because of an early health problem that no one could have predicted in an attempt to whine is an exercise in futility.
  12. I've seen you bashing the pickup in a couple other threads, and don't understand how he doesn't help the Sox at all. Mentioned his .788 career OPS, but didn't mention his 107 OPS+ or his stellar D in CF throughout his career. Do you have an example of any FA's besides Bay and Holliday who could have made a bigger impact than Cameron, specially seeing that the reason his OPS+ is above average is because he has exhibited solid offense throughout his career even though he's mostly played in pitcher's ballparks?
  13. Because you can calculate injuries in the off-season. Pretty ignorant statement. The Cameron signing was made because he was the best OF on the market besides Bay and Holliday, offensively and defensively. Do you have an objective criticism of Cameron's defense or offense?
  14. All it needs is guys playing up to their ability and another hitter.
  15. Never easy for the Twins to pull out a game from the Yanks.
  16. I think it's unrealistic to expect WAS to trade Zimmerman.
  17. Went ape-s*** apparently.
  18. But since we're ripping Gom a new one on both Fantasy Leagues due to s***** trades, isn't there a way to let him come back exclusively to the Fantasy Forums?
  19. Rauch for the 9th.
  20. Bucholz probably.
