  1. It'd be a dumb trade though. Why dump all your best CF's for a Lee rental?
  2. Jung, didn't Farrell already say this team would be running more? Maybe Farrell had some input on the types of players he wanted?
  3. This post boils down to: 1. Swisher was a MUST (he wasn't) 2. Since Ben will not sign Swisher he must go Hillarious. Pony, here's your one trick. The issue is SP, not whoever is playing RF. Call Ben out for a s***** rotation, not for signing Victorino over Swisher.
  4. Having Ross and Gomes on the roster is a waste of payroll. I hate Swisher, but that's my vote.
  5. He aint no AAAA poster you pussies! Ramble ramble. Have a seizure while posting. Ramble. Climbing up the organizational ladder wit each post son! *I got worried once I learned to understand him. Stockholm syndrome.
  6. @PeteAbe: #RedSox have signed OF Mitch Maier, RHP Terry Doyle, UTIL Drew Sutton , RHP Oscar Villarreal and RHP Jose De La Torre to minor league deals
  7. I just hope he loses interest for good before the gamethreads come back.
  8. f***ing Bakersfield... What a shithole.
  9. I'm fine with any 2-3 year deal. They won't hurt flexibility going forward. They need to move Salty, sign a RF, find at least one SP. Just so you know, I'm in a "play the kids" mode and don't care who they sign as long as there's open competition in ST and the kids can play when they're ready.
  10. Ben's tits aren't really that bad, huh?
  11. I'd take the lower WHIP from 2011. If he didn't vomit on himself in September, he may have gotten CY consideration and the Sox would have been in the postseason. Frankly, the pitching has been mediocre for a while.
  12. Reading skills aren't some people's strongpoint around here.
  13. I like Marcum for his AL East experience. Haren could have good upside. Jackson probably wants a 3 year deal.
  14. But but but but the cutter!
  15. Just Hamilton would net them 74 wins probably. I'm just saying that all these 3-4 year contracts that people want signed (Ross/Napoli/Swisher) aren't putting the Sox over the top. Without a real pitching upgrade, these signings are useless.
  16. C'mon, a 5/$125M contract isn't that bad. If that's all we need to do to get TS posters to buy tickets, it must be done! Who cares about the future? We need a year in/year out 88-90 win team that can't make the playoffs. At least they'll be competitive, but not so good as to prevent 12 months of bitchiness!
  17. BC's comments seem to say that he wouldn't be trading Lester. Could there be a chance they don't pick up a SP? Yup. Or they may get a AAAA starter like last year.
  18. Toronto asked for Bailey. He wasn't offered by the Sox.
  19. My point is that Paps was not irreplaceable. They just didn't find the right replacement. Paps is basically a 3 out reliever. Anything else and it's too much for him.
  20. He's also 40 and doesn't need excuses when he pitches over an inning.
  21. He had two appearances over one inning that September (four all year). How is he worth that contract if he can only get you three outs. Mo laughs at that...
  22. What Dojji said. The thing is, you can't just ignore two months of the season like they're meaningless.
  23. Will Wilson bring the Machine?
  24. iortiz said that people kept babying some overpaid busts. I asked for examples. He couldn't give any and has evaded the question. If you post something, at least attempt to back up what you wrote. It's not my fault that he made a statement that wasn't relevent to Paps leaving. Is this a Paps thread or a trade the bullpen thread? Clearly there are multiple comversations going on. If iortiz didn't want to talk about overpaid busts that people coddle, he shouldn't have brought it up.
