  1. This makes no sense. They didn't pick up a team option, what's the big deal. In 2008, he was voted 3rd in the MVP. Was it a ridiculous contract then?
  2. 4yr/$41M for 09-12 is ridiculously big for a 30 year old guy?
  3. Curt Young has been good in Oakland after losing this staff. Not sure if Peterson would make a difference.
  4. 3/$55 for Swisher? You think he's worth $18M?
  5. Yeah, there's never been overly drunk and obnoxious fans at Fenway...
  6. I think people will post more once the WS is over and FA/trades begin to happen. In terms of fanbases, I'd go: Pats (worst) Sox C's Bruins (best)
  7. Not sold on Broxton, Lohse, or the return of Youk. I can't stand Swisher and think Ortiz would be better than a platoon of Ross/Haffner. I still think it'd be better to start a youth movement and lose for a couple years than pick up older stop gaps.
  8. That's nothing. My 11 month old already has a 2.5 WAR (whines above replacement baby).
  9. Once the Sox waived the white flag with the trade, I had no issue with Ortiz sitting out and not playing hurt. Why jeopardize your health for a below .500 team?
  10. He was a 1.8 WAR player. Without him, they would have only won 67 games!
  11. Needs: SP to replace CC for the year, CL/SU to replace Soriano, C, SS, 3b, corner OF anything else?
  12. @PeteAbe: Toronto baseball writer ---> RT @elliottbaseball: Don't be surprised if 1B Adam Lind also heads to Fenway
  13. Dealing Aviles is better than moving even a mediocre prospect. I'm fine with Iggy/Ciriaco hitting 9th. At least the manager has been picked and they can now work on the roster. Now get 2 SP's, move Salty, get a new catcher, sign Ross and give him a 1b mitt, and get another corner OF.
  14. Yanks have 2 during your time frame.
  15. Ok, then bring him back as pitching coach in 2014. I think they need a different voice in there until things turn around.
  16. My list in order would be: Ausmus Wallach Farrell (no compensation) Hale Farrell (compensation)
  17. McAdam said Barnes for Farrell. Are you kidding me??? That would be disgustingly horrible.
  18. You are not the only one.
  19. Isn't "real baseball" the NL with double switches, sacrifice bunting and no DHs? Not that it makes for good tv...
  20. Rob Bradford is a horrible toadie. He's the least impartial reporter around. I wonder why he'd float this?
  21. Valverde is a grade A piece of s***. Really.
  22. He's too much money for his production. If the Twins aren't eating salary, I'm not interested.
  23. Trade him for someone who can actually play a full season, but preferably as part of a deal for a real SP.
  24. Getting Mauer would be even worse than getting Tulo. He's not a fulltime catcher anymore and his bat isn't worth the $ at any other position,
