Will the Giants and Dodgers fans just wipe each other out so that we don't have to hear about this nonsense anymore?
The Bay Area has a ton of s***** fans. They can't even have a Raiders/9ers preseason game without gang warfare erupting.
Now that WEEI isn't the top ranked sports radio station and the Globe is owned by John Henry, these shouldn't be big concerns. Radio callers are nut jobs anyway.
I don't know what this means:
"Seems to me one problem he has had is that the Sox have tried to push him in the wrong direction. That was a waste of time. From appearances it would seem that the Sox and Will have reached some sort of an uneasy peace on the subject. Maybe that means that what progress Will makes from here he will have to make on his own. They maybe won't push him in the wrong direction any longer but that might be all the help he gets."
Choo also sucks as a CF and would need to move to a corner OF. Personally, I love Victorino in RF, so don't really want to move him.
UN?, you thinking Choo in LF, JBJ in CF?
@TomCaron: .@RedSox now hold the tiebreaker w/ @Athletics (intradivision rec.) Won't hold it if A's make up 1 1/2 games by end of season. Magic # is 3.
It's funny, but don't do too much celebrating. Everyone on here has made good and bad predictions. Enjoy the sig bet win and move on. I remember a certain poster saying RDR would be the Sox #3 starter. That clearly didn't happen.
I'm offended by you inability to do math. 5/75 AAV is 15. 20 - 15 = 5, not 2 or 3. Why overpay for an injury prone guy whose greatest asset is speed, which will only get worse over time (especially considering his injury history)?
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.
