A) We still don't know if Cameron's playing LF or CF. B ) While this is true for Fenway, what about the season's other 81 games?
-
Same here. Because obviously, the question i asked you is better suited for the discussion at hand. It's obvious Jason Bay is better, but when you look at the bigger picture, the improvement in run prevention outweighs from both players outweighs offensive production. Whine all you want with your doomsday device. Even though they lost Bay, the Sox got better.
-
You might not. But it's the truth. The back end of the rotation was the downfall for the 2009 Boston Red Sox. And besides, all of this discussion will be moot until rosters are finished. We still don't know if there's another deal in the works.
-
This is not in question. He was very productive, but the improvement in pitching and defense has a much bigger impact than the loss on offense.
-
I will ask you a question back. Are the Sox better with Mike Cameron in LF and John Lackey as the 3rd starter or are they better with Jason Bay in left and Brad Penny/Dice-K/Bucholz as the 3rd starter?
-
Whole season of Victor Martinez plus a reasonable solution to the corner infield issue. (Maybe even Lowell himself playing 1B ) and the Sox don't lose nearly as much offensive production as you state. As i posted before, this year's Sox were superior in almost every offensive category to the 2007 WS winning team, but their pitching was inferior. Losing Bay is not such a big deal. Getting Lackey and a healthy Dice-K is a big deal. If anything, the Sox have the flexibility to get a bat if they truly need it, but the rotation is set. Some people may not like to hear this, but objectively speaking, the 2010 version of the Red Sox, health permitting, will be much better than the 2009 version.

Well played.

Dude. If she doesn't want to go out with you, don't take it out on me. Get a haircut, buy some mints, and go for it again. No reason to be all pissy like if you were in the middle of menopause.

It's a lot closer between Lester and CC than Beckett and Lackey versus Burnett and Petitte. Not even close.

Interestingly enough, Vasquez' 2007 season featured the lowest LD% of his career, highest LOB%, and tied with 2009 for lowest BABIP, but his HR/FB% was the highest from his years with the White Sox. Go figure.

Well you told me. I'm sorry, it's not my fault bias does not allow your thought process to be either logical or consistent.
-
So the Sox suck on the road in 2010? Even though 0 games have been played for the 2010 season?
-
-
No. By your statement, you believe the Yankees 1-4 are not question marks, therefore, you believe both Pettite and Burnett will reach close to 200 ip again, which is a question mark given Petitte's age and Burnett's injury history, therefore, you contradict yourself. Thinking before you type is fundamental.
-
I'll check further into it, but it seems too simple a loophole to exploit, and as you said yourself, with an option that simple to fulfill, anyone would go for options like that one to help their teams avoid tax hits.

And watch out, because the roster isn't even set in stone. There's still the possibility of the Sox bringing Bay back, and that would close the gap significantly. And what if they were to get one of the two who shall remain nameless afterwards? Hmmmm.............
