  1. I think you mean Air Bud: Seventh Inning Fetch. When you are on all fours seems to be increase range 100%. Also, catching the ball with your mouth rather than stretching at 1B is equal to 1 WAR over the course of a single WS game.
  2. His glove has never played the way scouts have told us it would.
  3. http://www.fangraphs.com/statsd.aspx?playerid=11426&position=P So far, he's had two s***** starts, three really good starts and lots of mediocrity. As a fifth starter, you can do much worse. If they didn't trade Espinoza for him, I'm sure there'd be much less talk about how mediocre he is. My biggest concern with him is durability.
  4. 2 starts don't make a season.
  5. Even his K was a GREAT at bat.
  6. Remy talking about bunting: swoon.
  7. Remy: "Marrero's D is meh."
  8. Better. Pedroia would have dived to get his jersey dirty. Gotta get dirty for Sully in Quincy!
  9. Rutledge with a solid play.
  10. Sandoval is raking tonight.
  11. DD: "Listen Pablo, if you accept the assignment to AAA, we will never monitor your weight again. If you stay in Boston, we'll be checking in on you daily." PS: "What are we waiting for?" DD: "We've already subletted a room for you near Federal Hill." PS: "Great!"
  12. Don't sully JD's good name. Unlike Pedroia, JD has postseason heroics that can be shown in a fancy MLB package.
  13. If I'm an opposing team that has a need at 3B, I'd be willing to take on Pablo if the Sox ate 90% of the remaining contract and didn't want any real prospects in return. Hypothetical trade: OAK trades Trevor Plouffe BOS trades Pablo Sandoval + $45M towards future salary This would be great for Pablo. It'd get him just across the bay from where he was a WS hero. He'd also stay in the AL and would be able to DH when needed.
  14. Crappy weather? SSS? We'll see what the numbers look like once the season continues to progress.
  15. The only problem with "sunk cost" is that it doesn't take into account additional salaries that need to added underneath a payroll cap. If Pablo is traded and the Sox pay 100% of the salary, is it still on the Sox' cap figure?
  16. Didn't he take himself out of the game last week when it was raining due to his knee that was injured in an insignificant manner?
  17. He can put up ok numbers with a lower body injury. I'm much more concerned about his numbers when he gets hand and wrist injuries. It seems he gets a hand injury every year either diving for a ball or a fluke collision. He was playing well recently so it's extra frustrating to see him go down when he had just started to heat up.
  18. There will be a timeshare with Pablo, Rutledge and Marrero at 2B/3B while Pedroia is on the DL.
  19. It's not what he says, but how he says it.
  20. He has less personality than a thimble.
  21. Looks like Marrero will be everyday 2b while Pedroia is out.
