    Look, Ellsbury is a great player. However, I don't see him having another 2011 or going to the HOF like Boggs. If they can sign him for 5/75, you do it. If he wants 20 AAV, you walk away.
  2. mvp 78
    And Ells went 39 and 15, meaning he turned 15 of his productive hits or walks into outs. I'll still go with Boggs and his much higher OBP and OPS+.
  3. mvp 78
    JBJ: 7 SB and 7 CS at Pawtucket this year Berry: 22 SB and 0 CS for Detroit and Boston the past two years.

    ^Was 5 when Dave Roberts stole 2nd. Dude, learn your history!
  5. mvp 78
    2011 Ells: 146 OPS+ Boggs had 5 years higher than that. His 87 season is better than Ells' 2011.
  6. mvp 78
    s***, I'd have Boggs hit 1st over Ells. Ells couldn't get a .450 OBP if he was playing in AAA.

    Just think Farrell will go with Thornton. I'd probably take Britton as well.
  8. mvp 78
    That's pretty much what I was thinking. Bigger question marks in the bp. Basically, pick 2 out of these guys: Doubront, Britton, Workman and Thornton. Uehara, Taz, Dempster, Breslow and Morales are locks. Farrell goes with Workman (RHP) and Thornton.
  9. mvp 78
    JBJ should only be on the roster if Ells is not ready to go. Not sure Xander would start any games in the playoffs as Farrell has been riding Drew and WMB ever since Xander was called up. Right handed bat off the bench, maybe.

    I'm not missing a forest. I just think without seeing evidence, Braun is the worse guy here and got off too lightly if ARod is getting 200 games...
  11. mvp 78
    Braun didn't take a deal when he failed that test.
  12. mvp 78
    Braun, knowing that he had failed, blamed an MLB employee, said he was an antisemite and got him fired.
  13. mvp 78
    ARod's suspension should just mirror Braun's. I think Braun is a worse human being. f*** that guy.
  14. mvp 78
    If Ells was a plus defender, he'd be able to throw a ball from the warning track to 2nd without it bouncing. His arm is just as bad as Damon's.
  15. mvp 78
    That break is definitely 2 days too long. Games pushed back for weekend ratings.
  16. mvp 78
    It's saying "hey, if you have a big game you'll get on ESPN. If you're playing West Xylophone St, a big game is meaningless."
  17. mvp 78
    Dempster's relief tryout. Meh.
  18. mvp 78
    Just need to turn it on in 2 weeks.
  19. mvp 78
    Hope the Sox b-squad can get them to the best record in the AL. Probably don't need to rest guys too much as they have 4 off days after the regular season.
  20. mvp 78
    Vin shouldn't be paired up with anyone. He flies solo.
  21. mvp 78
    And the risk that he can't hit MLB pitching...
  22. mvp 78
    Some days you want him for 6/100, others 8/150, which is it? He's going to sign for 18.5 AAV for 5-6 years at the very least.
  23. mvp 78
    I can't say as I don't know all the evidence. Not sure telling others to use hgh should draw a stiffer penalty. Selig just has a grudge against ARod and wants to look like a good guy after spending almost 2 decades pretending the problem didn't exist. I hate Selig more than I hate any Yankee.
  24. mvp 78
    Got Bucs. Not really "rooting" for them. Just hope the become a decent baseball town again.
  25. mvp 78
    Enjoy it as long as you need to. You've always clamored for a division title and now you have one to relish.
