  1. Yes, that's hyperbole Mr Dojji. I guess I just have a different opinion on what is "very valuable."
  2. Even when they're good, you can buy good seats on gameday.
  3. The seats just feel very steep there. The other ballpark I noticed that was where the Richmond Braves played. It was just hard to feel comfortable because I kept leaning back.
  4. "Very valuable?" He's a bench player, the 5th outfielder. Those guys usually have small contracts.
  5. I just think he'd get regular reps anyway considering 2 of the starters are Sizemore and Victorino.
  6. The upperdeck at Pacbell/AT&T/whatever park gave me vertigo. I hated those seats.
  7. I'll rephrase it as A's fans I encountered from 2000-2001 while living in SF were horrible. I had more fun at A's games than Giants games though.
  8. There's been too many steak dinner bet in these parts mister. His deal will easily be $325M+ unless he suffers some catastrophic injury in the next two years. 400 might be pushing it, but he'll sign for more than Miggy just did.
  9. I'd move Carp and keep JBJ on the roster. However, Kalish has proven to be enough of an injury risk that it didn't matter where he was playing. He was likely to get injured as a part time guy in the bigs that year too. JBJ could be injured shagging balls during bp at Fenway. Injuries just happen. Not sending someone to Pawtucket because "he might get injured" doesn't make much sense to me.
  10. Well, owners keep getting the public to pay for new stadiums and people keep paying their cable bill. People have been bitching about player contracts ever since Yaz's big deal. The money has just skyrocketed ever since and hasn't slowed down.
  11. The owners aren't really in debt though. These guys are flushed with Scrooge McDuck amounts of cash. I don't see any crash coming before Trout gets a new deal.
  12. I've heard that before. "No one will get another ARod contract again!" There's just insane amounts of money in the game now.
  13. If every 1st rounder worked out, the Cubs would've had a WS by now. Thankfully, the Yankees drafting has been far behind the Sox for a few years now.
  14. New users? Heh... Have you seen it around here?
  15. I like this. Every poster over 5,000 posts needs a chart.
  16. There won't be any major cable billing changes in the next few years. I would support a pay per channel option, but would be surprised if that ever happens. Baseball will never have a hard cap. Their union is stronger than any other in professional sports. How about the lower tiered teams actually be required to put all revenue sharing dollars received into their own payrolls rather than the owner's pockets? How about a salary floor to prevent teams like the Marlins and Astros from being laughingstocks?
  17. Good luck? All you have to do is google "pitch count injury correlation" and a bunch of studies pop up.
  18. "Aroldis Chapman has bone fractures and a concussion, and will have a metal plate permanently installed in his head, but is otherwise well. He is expected to miss six to eight weeks."
  19. The SRO tickets are great as you'll still be up there and I'd rather lean on the wall than sit in those painful seats anyway.
  20. I disagree. Homeplate collisions are dumb, but foul tips probably cause far more concussions. http://grantland.com/features/mlb-catcher-concussions-home-plate-collisions-rule/
  21. The Coliseum is a great place to catch a game if you can deal with s***** A's fans. I could eat a ton of their garlic fries right now.
  22. Is Capuano only working out of the pen in ST?
  23. Badenhop is looking pretty s***** today.
  24. http://deadspin.com/belligerent-red-sox-prospect-arrested-while-looking-to-1544062842 After following him on twitter, none of this is surprising. He seems like a grade A moron.
