  1. Well, being a vegetarian for almost half my life, I know how limited the options are even at the best restaurants and best catering services. More often than not, the veggie options are pasta or a greasy "grilled" veggie plate.
  2. Fred, Reddick had a higher OPS last year than Ross. Just saying...
  3. I don't care about the signing either way. Just know people's disdain for McDonald and noticed that Darnell had a better 2011 than Ross. Thought it was interesting, that's all. Wasn't complaining.
  4. Age ain't nuthin but a number when it's a 1 year deal. Most recent history showed that Ross didn't have great splits. I wouldn't be shocked if he had a repeat performance of 2011. We'll have to see though. (Just thought it was interesting to look at their 2011 ABs and notice the grass isn't always greener.)
  5. McDonald had better splits against LHP last year and it's not even close. I don't see it with Ross.
  6. The Ortiz contract is a red herring. The problem is Lackey and CC's contracts. Unlike other sports, putting Lackey on IR and saving a cap hit isn't possible in MLB.
  7. Wrong. BV has stated that the Sox messed up by not letting him go longer in starts. If he comes back, BV won't be scared to let him throw a bunch of pitches.
  8. Not sure Pedroia's arm is strong enough for SS.
  9. Lol, I need fashion advice. Should I get a Bears tshirt of Rex Grossman s***ing himself in the SB, or the one where Jim McMahon walks into a room and the caption says "why am I in here again?"
  10. I just think he'll get killed the second time through the lineup. He has more value as a reliever, imo.
  11. That would be a disaster. A reliever who nibbles and has had issues getting rest between starts, no way he's converted.
  12. Tek just went through a divorce. It'd be dumb for him to hang up his boots if he still thinks he has something left. It's more of a financial decision than one concerning class. Dude needs the money. Don't know why anyone would fault him for trying to hang on. My guess is we'd all do the same thing in his shoes. He'll make more earning veterans minimum than any other job he could get.
  13. He can't help himself.
  14. Hard to hide s bat in a lineup where the RF/LF is TBD.
  15. Tomorrow I will pour some out for that POS. If this was just a salary dump, seems like a waste. If the owners were so worried about the luxury tax, maybe they should stop bringing in over priced players like CC and Lackey. This ownership group has lots of money. Penny pinching is f'n stupid. I don't want Aviles at SS. That'll be ugly.
  16. I got a chuckle over RuMart's intangibles... Jacko, as a doctor, would you say to someone "I know your cholestetol is higher than the average person, but don't worry because you have great intangibles"? "Listen, you have cancer, but it's ok because you've got intangibles!"
  17. His offense is fine for a catcher. He's comparable to most starters. Defensively, he took a hit from catching Wake. He still needs to improve, but he's not a "liability." If Tek was the starter, that's a liability.
  18. He batted .279 after May 1 last year. Funny how people rip a hardworker and good clubhouse guy like CC. Could he be better, sure. Should he have been signed to a big contract, no, but you can't change that know. It's a sunk cost. Frankly, I don't remember an uproar over him last offseason.
  19. He'd be better in RF
