  1. Shaw isn't eligible for the AFL. Last year he played 1 game in Puerto Rico. AFL Rules: Eligibility Rules The eligibility rules to play in the AFL are simple. The roster size is 30 players per team. Each Major League organization is required to provide six players subject to the following requirements: All Triple-A and Double-A players are eligible, provided the players are on at least a Double-A level roster no later than Aug. 1. One player below the Double-A level is allowed per Major League team. One foreign player is allowed, as long as the player does not reside in a country that participates in winter ball, as part of the Caribbean Confederation or the Australian winter league. No players with more than one year of credited Major League service as of August 31 are eligible, except a team may select one player picked in the most recently concluded Major League Rule 5 Draft. To be eligible, players on Minor League disabled lists must be activated at least 45 days before the conclusion of their respective seasons.
  2. Yeah, I think DiceK was a lottery ticket. I don't think anyone thought he'd be the #1 guy.
  3. He should have stuck with the Rice-A-Roni for our sake.
  4. The next two games he pitched weren't highlight reels either.
  5. How could it have possibly affected his long term career? He pitched great the following year.
  6. I have zero interest in this. Absolutely zero. He was a clubhouse cancer (per Tim Flannery) and he left pouting like an 8 year old. No thanks. or That whale has sailed. or No comparison of Pablito vs. Shark, thank you. Shark has an upside. Pablo's only chance for expanding performance is in his waistline. Whoever started that rumor is seriously deranged. Why is it that only Boston fans are mean to underperforming players?!?!?!?!?!?
  7. I find it hard to believe that wonderful Giants fans would do any sort of character assassination on Pablo: We have Gillaspie, and Nunez, Left field is the spot we need someone for. Plus, the way Pablo put on weight once he left wasn't good in any way. His stomach resembled a woman with baby. Pablo, needs to have someone stay on him about his weight, what to eat, how much to eat, etc. So, thats a deal breaker if he won't follow the rules that the Giants set up to make sure he stayed on track. He was useless to the red sox because of his weakness for food. Personally, I don't think it's a good move. Because he is not serious about keeping the weight off. Weakness for food? Not serious about keeping the weight off? That's just not fair to Pablo!
  8. Well, let's just ask another Giants fan then: Chublo also said he wanted to go to the RedSox for a new challenge. I'm not sure what he meant. If he wanted a challenge, perhaps the Twins or Rockies would have been a nice destination. I'm not sure the Giants equipment manager wants him to come back, because that would require the equipment manager to try to fuse three belts together to fit a 78 inch waist so there was no repeat of when fatty's belt buckle exploded last season when he was in the batter's box. Hmmm...
  9. Since we know how terrible us Puritans are, let's see how Giants feel about Pablo: **** that clown. Says the Giants disrespected his fatass, then signs with Boston, sucked for a year, then eats himself out of yet another starting job. Way to go lardass. Yeah you've been disrespected, right. Never accept responsibility for your ****ups when there's someone else you can blame. The new American dream. Oh?
  10. 1. Put Pablo on a diet. 2. Make him wipe the Cheetos dust off his uniform. 3. Liposuction (worked well for Paul Wight). 4. If the above fails, just have him be a spokesperson for Dunkies and create a Pablo Sandoval line of donuts. That would get a lot of fans on his side.
  11. ftfy.
  12. I can't believe they broke Cla Meredith by letting him give up that grand slam and then having him go back on the mound the following day. THEY RUINED HIS CAREER!!!! This is not an argument a sane individual would make.
  13. Porcello worked out this year. Beckett was our ace for a few years. The only guy I can think of that was brought in to be an ace that didn't work out was Price and he still has a chance to redeem himself. The only other big acquisition was Lackey and he really was only expected to be a #3.
  14. http://www.fangraphs.com/wins.aspx?date=2005-05-08&team=Red%20Sox&dh=2
  15. This stuff always regresses over time. You don't grab a guy just because he's a "Sox killer." Whatsup Carl Crawford!
  16. If they want to platoon at DH, wouldn't they just go with in house options like Young, Shaw, Sandoval and other guys on the roster with split issues?
  17. I still can't figure out for the life of me why anyone would give two shits about Cla Meredith at this point. He was barely a prospect. The fact that he didn't become a bullpen ace in the majors shouldn't even register as a blip on our radar.
  18. Pablo will be in the lineup on opening day. That means there'll be an extra table open at OCB for you self loathing fatty fatty fat fats.
  19. Hard to help the pitching staff when you're injured.
  20. I'd rather hold onto Devers than Moncada right now.
  21. Gone but never forgotten.
  22. What is even a realistic trade for Sale, Frazier and Robertson? JBJ, Moncada, Owens, Groome, Basabe? Is that even enough?
  23. It's almost Thanksgiving.... WHY HAVEN'T THEY SIGNED ANYONE RABBLE RABBLE RABBLE....
  24. AGon - 11.7 WAR through 2016 Josh Becket - 1.1 WAR Carl Crawford - 5 WAR Punto - 2.3 WAR James Loney - -0.2 WAR Rubby with Sox - 0.3 WAR Webster with Sox - -0.2 WAR Wade Miley (Rubby and Webster trade) - 2.7 WAR Carson Smith (Miley trade) - 0.0 WAR
