  1. A platoon of JBJ and Young since JBJ isn't everyday material atm.
  2. Waiting on a FA class isn't your best bet. They were lucky Price didn't get a new contract during the year. If I was GM last year, they would have Max and Lester, but no Hanley, Panda or Price.
  3. I'd rather Price with his contract than Lester with Homer Bailey's.
  4. Hanley should be perfectly capable at 1b.
  5. Nearing the tipping point of becoming an old fool.
  6. Ben is just shorthand for "Front Office." No one really knows who did what and it doesn't matter. When things go wrong Ben, Larry, Tom and John were all equally to blame. When things were going well they can all equally share the adoration.
  7. Ben did a great job with the 2013 team (not a fluke). He did a good job with the farm system. He s*** his pants in 2014 and 2015 though. Boston isn't a small market and shouldn't have to have disastrous results like that when ticket prices are so expensive and the payroll is towards the top of the league. His undoing was when he signed Hanley and Panda without adequately addressing the starting rotation.
  8. JBJ is a terrific 4th outfielder at the moment. I hope he develops into an everyday player. He hasn't reached that potential yet. If he doesn't get there this year, he probably won't ever.
  9. If Marmol can still crank it up in the upper 90's, might as well give him a shot. No real downside to this move.
  10. He showed up this morning looking "trimmed down" and sporting a 1b glove. Hey, it's a start!
  11. Not if he can't hit in ST.
  12. Are you stating that he's addicted to PEDs? You are also equating the use of PEDs to alcoholism, weed and chewing tobacco?
  13. So yoi're agreeing with me then? Great.
  14. You didn't hear it, because it didn't happen. He said they were leaning towards moving Betts to RF but that it would be decided in ST. He said they'll both spend time in CF in ST.
  15. Great player. s***** human.
  16. RF at JetBlue isn't the same as RF at Fenway.
  17. And to thank him for consecutive seasons of horrible baseball. Bonus points for Hanley and Panda!
  18. Nope. Maybe he didn't report.
  19. The rotation definitely needs a leader. Price should help in that regard.
  20. He was a fatty in SF and fielded the position just fine. I think he struggled so much at the plate that it affected him in the field. I think he'll be better this year, but he still won't produce like it's the 2014 postseason.
  21. Panda loses weight every offseason and gains it back during the year. There is also no correlation to lower weight and higger performance for him. Some guys need a year to transition to a new league. I hope that's all he needs.
  22. I'm fine with Taz pitching anywhere 6-8 as needed. Uehara should be the setup guy and Kimbrell should be the closer.
  23. He started 10 as a platoon DH as Papi was starting slow. Injuries just piled up too quickly on him. my second favorite Sox 3b. (Bill Mueller FTW)
  24. So the final year of his 3 year extension? Yeah the Sox ate $12M. The Sox would do that in the final year of Sandoval, but not in year 2.
