  1. Get a girlfriend and then dump her April 1st. Simple.
  2. Thank you. You bolstered my point.
  3. You get it. Is Abreu available?
  4. DD has to take the shiny Holt toy away from JF. - Probably won't happen. No Rutledge. - Makes sense. No Moreland, Young, Reed, Fister & Davis. - Maybe keep Morleand. Maybe bring Nunez back. - If he has a clean bill of health BEFORE SIGNING. Maybe sign JD Martinez and Duda to squeeze HRam under 497 PAs and no 2019 vesting $22M option. - Dumb. Maybe, instead, we trade for Donaldson or Beltre and move Devers to 1B and keep HRam at DH. - Dumber. Maybe we sign a pitcher and then trade ERod and prospects for a real 1Bman or 3Bman. - Creative and possibly very smart. Maybe, maybe, maybe.
  5. Thank you for this post. I like Hosmer but he is exactly the type of player this team does not need.
  6. Maybe. He has hit 30 or more HR twice and is 31 years old next season.
  7. So that is only 23 teams.
  8. I was the guy who suggested dumping Hanley. Moon is butt hurt about that since Hanley is so valuable. My plan adds Stanton and keeps Moreland ( or not if a decent replacement can be found ). Trade JBJ and ERod with two or three pieces for Stanton. Maybe I should post a wall of text with very stat known to man to justify my idea?
  9. What?
  10. You can use my name you know. I stand by my suggestion. Just because you are not able to understand why it is a good idea does not make the idea a bad one. Now go post another meaningless boring wall of text and take your Geritol.
  11. Stanton.
  12. Getting rid of Giradi is taking a step backwards. The Yankees are back. Why f*** that up?
  13. How many teams did not get 30 from their 1st baseman?
  14. Okay. If you believe his recent production is who he will be going forward. I don't see any concerns with Stanton producing for the next 5 years. Barring injuries, of course. Do you see Martinez being a full time DH? What happens to Hanley? Who sits in the outfield? You think platooning is going to work?
  15. Who the f*** expects 30-40 HR from a 1st baseman anymore? How many teams get that production from 1st base?
  16. So Stanton is too expensive? Holt will be back and I don't see the Sox f***ing up a pretty good catching tandem.
  17. He is very cheap, plays solid defense ( even if he is not really GG ) and has provided just what was expected of him despite playing a chunk of the season with a broken toe. Make a trade for Stanton and Moreland is a very good fit.
  18. I don't mean to be rude since I like you but who do see as comparable in free agency? My idea is may not be realistic but so far no one has presented definitive proof that it can't be done.
  19. The Yankees are for real. Next year the Sox will be living a nightmare if they don't build an offense. Thank you Boy Blunder for saddling the Sox with so much dead payroll.
  20. Moon is talking about adding $39. mil to the payroll. Ask him. You know I hate long term massive deals but a player like Stanton is one I would make an exception for. As far as signing Betts or others I would burn that bridge when the time comes. After all, the Sox only have two more years of their "window" so go for it or shut the f*** up about winning a WS title any time soon.
  21. I might do it for Stanton but I can't see doing it for less. By the way Doc, you should make a post about the 2018 Yankee payroll like Moon's Sox payroll post. That should raise some eyebrows.
  22. Moving Devers to 1st is a retarded idea. Get Stanton and sign Moreland to a reasonable deal. That is if Stanton is really on the block. All these convoluted moves just to add power and runs are not necessary if you grab only one player that brings 40 HR and can still play a position. Power is the rarest of commodities. Real thumping power , that is. A generational power hitter like Stanton is an obvious move for a team with deep pockets. Poo-pooing the idea shows real reluctance to see reality. Without a Stanton type player the 2018 Sox won't be in the hunt to challenge the Yankees for 1st. Enough of the excuses and enigma s***. This team needs some jolt.
  23. I would. Package him with ERod and 2-3 pieces for Stanton. Of course I don't have a clues so this is just a crazy idea.
  24. Hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!1!1!!!!
