  1. Yaz had to wear earplugs in LF. There are always drunks and rowdy fans at sporting events. This is not a new phenomenon.
  2. There are only 6 full time catchers that throw out less than 25%. You got some facts to back up that 6 is a lot?
  3. The 31% is basically average for C who played 80 games. His OPS is average. Also, his OPS and CS% is better than RuMart.
  4. Shoppach had 61% of Salty's ab's. Taking his adjusted total bases less an adjusted CSB gives 110 bases (which is unlikely as that number is inflated by LH pitchers, which he wouldn't be likely to see). Shoppach hit .115 against RH pitchers. He's nothing more than a platoon player. Full-time, he'd be brutal. Salty was at 102. He also had to catch Wake. The best option is to play Salty against RH pitchers and Shoppach against LH pitchers.
  5. No mention of a mystery changeup he's working on?
  6. There's a live update on boston.com
  7. 2 innings, 0 hits, 1 bb, 2 k, 0 r Aceves: 2 1,2,3 innings
  8. The radio guys were virtually asleep for the portion of the game I heard last night. Not that Don/Jerry would be any better. If we could only clone Vin Scully...
  9. We had quite a long argument about big vs small market recently. Does that mean me or iOrtiz is AtWork? Personally, I wouldn't say never, but even if he became league average (Salty) people would still fight about how much he sucks.
  10. In 2010, he was 2-2. AAA don't mean s***.
  11. I don't see that happening. That's basically 2nd/3rd starter production for most teams. He'll be lucky to get 10 wins and a 4.25 ERA. He seems like more of an 8-8 4.60 guy right now. Still better than Lackey and Wake.
  12. Per Sean McAdam, the all time score against NU is 95 - 2. Tazawa looked bad against BC. Doubront was ok. Lavarnway can clearly mash bad pitching. Can't wait to see Beckett pitch today...
  13. Also, Yankees, Nats and Tigers all played against college teams yesterday. It's the 22nd time they've played BC. It's a 7 inning exhibition.
  14. The grapefruit league games haven't started yet. Playing against BU and NU at least simulates game situations. I don't see the problem with it.
  15. The Wild Card game winner is at home for games 1-2 for the Division series. That's ********. Also, baseball should never be played in November. MLB either needs to schedule double headers or cut the season back to 154.
  16. Paps' slider and splitter are horrible. I'm not sure about Bard's changeup, but he has a really good slider. It's definitely going to be an interesting transition.
  17. There's no way Gonzo bats lower than 4th.
  18. Back on topic, I don't see Salty being moved midseason. My guess is he'll be the starter through September, Lavs will spend the entire season in Pawtucket hitting bombs and working on his D, in 2013 the starter is Lavs with Shoppach as the backup.
  19. I'm not looking to take anyone down a peg. I'm just offering advice that Fred will get along better with others if he limits the I told you so's and I was a scout blah blah blah.
