  1. By all accounts, i believe Fenway park could only help boost Beltre's HR numbers, at least. Whereas a LH hitter who can't drive the ball the other way like LaRoche or Delgado would be hurt by Fenway's difficulty for LHH.
  2. 1) Atkins signed with the Orioles. 2) I don't believe the amount of games played is pertinent to the discussion. 3) Beltre has never had elbow surgery, it was shoulder surgery, and i also don't believe it to be pertinent to the discussion. ( I may be wrong, please post a link if i am) 4) Fenway is not a good homer park for lefties. It's not true for righties.
  3. An educated guess would say ORS. Educated guess was wrong.
  4. Lowell can barely play defense anymore, besides, it's highly likely that the Red Sox are the only suitors for Beltre and they could negotiate a 2/year plus option deal, even Boras can't work his magic enough to make a lone team bid against themselves.
  5. XBH greatly influence SLG%, if a higher percentage of them are hit to your pull side, then, as i said, you pull with power to RF. Cano Home/Road splits: .911/.831. I don't need to make another post in this thread. You did all the work for me.
  6. Honest question: What exactly does that have to do with Beltre's projection at Fenway?
  7. Fantastic contribution.
  8. Robinson Cano hit chart. Only 2 of his 14 homers were not hit to RF.
  9. No. The fact that your thought process is not advanced enough to comprehend what you're reading is your problem, not mine. I specifically said that the players bolded above, hitting as lefties in NYS were notable for their pulling habits, and had massive home/away SLG% differentials, adding to the notion that NYS gives lefty pull hitters a notable advantage. Take the time to read and interpret, lest you look like an ass as you usually do.
  10. Adrian Beltre 2009 : 689 OPS. Adrian Beltre career: .779 Adrian Beltre away from Safeco/Dodger: .826 OPS
  11. Either him or Branyan. Similar production.
  12. Projected lineup were the Mariners to bring back Branyan/acquire Bradley: Suzuki: .811 career OPS. Figgins: .751 career OPS (.363 career OBP) Bradley: .821 career OPS Branyan: .822 career OPS Lopez: .715 career OPS (.463 SLG last year, .883 OPS away from Safeco last year) Griffey: .912 career OPS (.735 last year better indicator) Gutierrez: .736 career OPS (.764 last year, .963 against lefties) Johnsonn: (.589 career OPS, limited ABs) Wilson: (.684 career OPS) Not very good, but not the Royals.
  13. If the deal goes down and the Mariners bring back Branyan , they will have a very respectable offense.
  14. Apparently, the Cubs and Mariners have a deal in place to trade Milton Bradley for Carlos Silva. I don't know about you, but i think the Mariners win big time with this deal. Cubs-Mariners to swap Bradley for Silva.
  15. You probably didn't notice how the initial post was edited, or how he attacked a700. Again, you're talking out of your ass and attempting to stir problems up. Since you really have no idea what you're talking about, i'll deny your baiting attempt and move on.
  16. I see it as completely possible, mainly because Figgins and Feliz basically set the market for Beltre, he's getting less than Figgins but more than Feliz, so 7-9 mill AAV range seems like the logical number.
  17. 2/14 if the market keeps developing the way it has been up to this point.
  18. Yet who started with which? Hanley doesn't make for the Sox unfortunately. Not with them dumping Lowell to open up a CIF position while handing out 5 mill for Scutaro. I'd jizz in my pants if they got him though.
  19. However,looking at the park aspect, we both know that Fenway is a brutal park for lefty pull hitters, AKA Adam Laroche. Look, the point is, that when you measure defense, ballpark projection and actual value, Beltre outweighs LaRoche. You're welcome to think otherwise if you want. But at least present your points without the smugness like you've been doing after the mini-shitstorm.
  20. I sincerely doubt he'll get 25 AAV. That's why i said the contract would probably have an incremental value.
