    He should mirror PWNdroia's approach. He's the textbook definition of "succesful troll".

    That's because he's a f***ing idiot who has no idea what he's talking about. I'm trying not to be abrasive, but srsly.

    You stole my post.

    Your stupidity is astounding.

    Lol. Way to dance around the point. A wash. Sure. Sabby> Lester Beckett>Burnett Lackey>Pettite Bcuholz= Vasquez. Obviously a wash. A 4.50 ERA, by the way, even with the K's (which are completely irrelevant) and the 200+ IP (which are not a given, and even if they are, they're not as humongously relevant as you're making it out to be either) is not very good. It's really that simple. When talking about a difference maker in a team-to-team comparison, you need the guy who you're certain can positively impact your team in a head-to-head matchup. Reading and context comprehension are a ncessity.

    Read all of it. Fallacy. Guys on the Red Sox who have enjoyed two or more 55+ XBH seasons: Kevin Youkilis Victor Martinez Mike Cameron Mike Lowell David Ortiz Adrian Beltre Dustin Pedroia J.D Drew. Guys who have enjoyed multiple 20+ HR seasons: Kevin Youkilis Victor Martinez Mike Cameron Mike Lowell David Ortiz Adrian Beltre JD Drew This lineup has power from top to bottom. Stop making s*** up. I omitted Varitek and Hall because, well, they're Varitek and Hall. Lol. If anything, this team has too much power, but too little contact.. And define a "Run Producer". Last i checked, Victor Martinez and Kevin Youkilis were excellent "Run-Producers" with David Ortiz right behind them on the scale of "Run Production" after his "Two months of suck" hiatus was over. Because he was obviously the only one who used that model, amirite? You don't know what you're talking about. You didn't even read the whole book. "Run producer". Lawl.

    You're an idiot. Reasons: 1) Riverside Sluggers was being sarcastic. 2) No pitcherof the current era, (not even Halladay) throws seven innings every outing. 3) Theo offered half the farm for Halladay, but Ricciardi didn't budge, it takes two teams to make a trade. 4) Where the f*** did you come up with this "Ace ranking" system? Sabathia's one of the best pitchers in baseball, so is Lester. Most teams would kill to have either of them headlining their rotation.

    It's not about my prediction. I already gave my prediction in that loooooooong analysis of Vasquez i made which you apparently skimmed through. Now, putting it into context, let me explain to you what i mean by "Difference maker": A guy with a 4.50 ERA is not a "difference maker" in a starting rotation, by that account, i don't consider Matsuzaka or Wakefield "Difference-makers" either. Now i have a question, if the Sox and Yankees meet in the playoffs (and they just might), which do you like better? (Assuming everyone healthy). Lester-Beckett-Lackey-Bucholz or Sabby-Burnett-Pettite-Vasquez. Honest answer plz.

    Dude. What i said in my post was not referring to the Red Sox, but baseball in general. Had you taken the time to think about it you would've gotten that. If you wanted to fight about that, you were going to fight alone.

    Best post you have made in this site.

    No they're not.

    Jon Lester pitched 203 innings last year. For the 4th time, what the f*** are you talking about?
  19. Dipre
    The Yankees, Red Sox, and Phillies have all assembled offenses that resemble the Moneyball model (albeit with adjustments) since the late 1990's. They have combined to win 5 of the last 9 WS. What the f*** are you talking about? You haven't read the book.

    I was about to mention him from the 2005 Sox (The White Version). He's basically Adrian Beltre twice as fragile. Aces on the bolded part.

    Again, it's about lineup position. You need a lead-off hitter and a #2 hitter in every lineup. For the basis of lineup construction, the position they play is not of consequence. Positional standards must be looked at depending on the roster construction of the team in question.

    Positional offensive standards should also take into account the lineup construction of the team that the player belongs to. Chone Figgins, for all intents and purposes, is an excellent third baseman for the Mariners considering the position he'll hit in for that lineup.
