only when compared to his dad not other ownerships but let's not forget signing CC and AJ only uses up 1/2 or whatever it is of what is was coming off the books this yr right now we are talking about a team moving into a new stadium with higher price's that's cutting payroll we can get buy without tex but getting him would be going the extra mile

and I still say it would be arod batting 3rd manny 4th cano batting 3rd LOL if you weren't so rude you'd be funny you don't put a guy with 305 OBP last yr 335 career OBP batting 3rd when you have a arod and manny what kind of fan would you be ? I'm thinking the same kind that would say my dad can beat up your dad personally I find it insulting

when it comes to actually needing texeria I think the yanks and sox are in the same boat no one knows how posada, matsui, ortiz & lowell are going to rebound but that sure does effect how much they need him this will be a defining moment for HAL will he go the extra mile ? or will he be called coupon clipping hal he let the mets get santana will he let the sox get texeria ? does anyone think his dad would ? http://i266.photobucket.com/albums/ii262/pinstripezac/steinbrenner.jpg http://i266.photobucket.com/albums/ii262/pinstripezac/twins12.jpg

have another cup of coffee sir those arn't my words those are 26 -6's

posted by the greatest of all message board posters Mr 25-6 who has only seen 4 Dude you really need to learn how to post on a message board. And while I don't condone all of Manny's antics and behaivor, granted I have spelling issues but giving a punk a raise spells condone to me 26-6 '' I badly want manny protecting A-Rod in the 5 spot.'' And nobody said the 5-hole was the problem you idiot, you need to look beyond things like that. wow, it looks like I need to learn how to read as well as post on a MB this is harder than I thought Consider that Cano hits 3rd replacing Abreu, A-Rod 4th, and Manny 5th. Cano's getting great pitches to hit because he's got two of the best hitters in the world behind him, and Ahhh he does talk BB IMO last winter we could have penciled cano into the 3rd or 5th spot for 09 but I think we have to put that on hold right now the only person in the league capable of giving A-Rod optimum protection in the batting order is Manny Ramirez. With Manny 5th, batting behind A-Rod we have an incredible lineup, and nobody's getting pitched around. Clown! I agree manny is a clown , do I think manny would help arod relax & get better pitches .........most likely but arod has won 3 mvps without his protection and I still say it would be arod batting 3rd manny 4th

Or should I go with the following avocado? how about http://michaelscycles.net/merchant/633/images/site/SpellingBeeWinner07.jpg

we need 1 med level starter that can give us 200 innings and a #3 bat Wait, you're a Red Sox fan? Explain the name. we ,as in, me and my new best buddy 26-6

coco '' but you said English was your 2nd language, then said it wasn't. '' I did suggest it could be, but I didn't say it, I said so is this where I'm suppose to say English is my 2nd language ? and when it looked like he might of misunderstood what I said I came clean not quite deserving of being called a liar IMO that's the least of your concerns. that's true coco, we need 1 med level starter that can give us 200 innings and a #3 bat

ORS '' As I said, luck is involved,'' good then we agree......to a point It's not worth mentioning. Not unless you can't give a deserved compliment without qualifying it - ie, spinning it. what do you want from a MFY

coco '' Great, so in your first day you've proven yourself an idiot and a liar.'' where did I lie ? and if you think I did why bash me for coming clean jeez what is this place a board for cranky English teachers

26-6 but only saw 4 '' I badly want manny protecting A-Rod in the 5 spot.'' how could any self respecting yankee fan, baseball fan, person want manny ? the HOF best RH hitter in the game should be black balled by all the owners for what he did to get out of his contract besides the 5th hole is not the problem, not even close http://i266.photobucket.com/albums/ii262/pinstripezac/3rd2.jpg http://i266.photobucket.com/albums/ii262/pinstripezac/3rd.jpg

no, I understood your spin ORS Dude, nice aviator, what do you think of mine? just guessing here but I think it fits you pretty well ;-)

you call yourself 26 -6 and you are telling me how to act on a red sox board LOL I was complimenting the guy on his aviator and misspelled it get over it, and yourself who likes the Yankees because it's the cool thing to do LOL yeah that's been such and easy thing to be the last few yrs maybe one should question your baseball knowledge

Just so you know, english is my 2nd language as well, so that is no excuse. Just so you know, english is NOT my 2nd language but proper spelling and grammar has no connection to baseball knowledge

that is neither accurate or the same as saying theo was lucky no other teams made that offer to nomar I'm not positve about pedro he had the highest bid for pavano and then this The Red Sox wanted Contreras so badly after he defected from Cuba that general manager Theo Epstein reportedly bought up every room at a hotel so no other teams could get near him or his agent. But Contreras wanted to be a Yankee http://nbcsports.msnbc.com/id/9593624/from/RL.4/ I believe that's when larry called us the evil empire

Correct grammar is important. It enhances your credibility. so is this where I'm suppose to say English is my 2nd language ? It shows your respect for others if you take the time to spell-check. point taken It demonstrates that you have the necessary intellect to present coherent ideas. I disagree there is a difference between book sense, common sense and knowing baseball So its importance is not overrated, as you state. I stand corrected at least as far as you guys go be careful now http://www.cartoonstock.com/lowres/gth0403l.jpg

All of those players are good players that were desirable to more than just the Sox at the time of their signings, yet they only ended up on one team. Every team interested in those players was every bit as lucky as the Red Sox. Was there some good fortune involved? Yeah, but not for one team only. talking about a '' Nice attempt to dodge my point '' nomar, pedro and pavano ended up on 3 different teams If you can't acknowledge that theo was lucky they turned his offers down than that says more about you than anything else

not saying it's going to happen but if he healthy enough to pitch nothing wrong with him as a #4 or 5 certainly an upgrade over byrd or colon

not sure if these are new rumors, but they were talked about this week end john smolz as a #5 lugo for cameron ( 4th OF) sox -texeria '' The expectation is that the offer is going to easily be a record for this ownership group ''

Some truth to that I suppose. I'll settle for that The win with Ortiz, though, I think shows good scouting by the Sox scouts, not luck. how about , bill james, pedro suggesting it, and some luck I can't beleive rice is not in the HOF yet I figured all the tainted stats of the 90's would help his case I hope he gets in soon so we don't have to listen to him on nesn anymore ;-)

why is he the luckiest? where should I start? in 04 when he offered nomar a 4 yr deal and nomar turned it down pedro a 3 yr deal contreaus turning his offer down pavano turning his offer down ortiz ? one could expect he would do better in boston but not that good no big deal I said he was one of the best Grammar and spelling are the presentation of your thought in this medium. If you aren't serious about presenting it properly, why should we be serious about what it says? dude it's a BB board, as long as we understand it doesn't matter I mean if you aren't smart enough to be able to understand what I'm saying how can I expect you to be smart enough to understand the context of the post ? Olny srmat poelpe can. I cdnuolt blveiee taht I cluod aulaclty uesdnatnrd waht I was rdanieg. The phaonmneal pweor of the hmuan mnid, aoccdrnig to a rscheearch at Cmabrigde Uinervtisy, it deosn't mttaer in waht oredr the ltteers in a wrod are, the olny iprmoatnt tihng is taht the frist and lsat ltteer be in the rghit pclae. The rset can be a taotl mses and you can sitll raed it wouthit a porbelm. Tihs is bcuseae the huamn mnid deos not raed ervey lteter by istlef, but the wrod as a wlohe. Amzanig huh? yaeh and I awlyas tghuhot slpeling was ipmorantt!

but he is also the luckiest GM Great first post, seeing as there is no way to go but up from here. Nicely done...set the bar low from the outset. what's the problem you don't see it or just can't admit it ? "avitor"...right. oh jeez another wantabee english teacher from RSN do you know how shallow one seems talking about spelling on a BB board jeez I give the guy a complament and .........

so you think theo is the best GM ? I have no problem with that but he is also the luckiest GM love your avitor
