  1. Brooks... all that could have been...
  2. Oh, that's not cool.
  3. THEY GOT MARSHON BROOKS!
  4. I think the Soriano deal killed the chance of Papelbon going to the Yankees... despite how much Papelbon wanted to go to New York.
  5. I'm curious what the differences between 2010 and 2011 are. I feel like his strikeout rate must be significantly lower this year than last year, and I don't know what to make of this data.
  6. In all fairness, I called that thread a fantasy as well. Dojji tries to keep track of prospects. He really likes Lin for some reason, but besides ORS, Jacko and one or two others, no one else really watches prospects that much.
  7. Since when was Lavarnway not a legitimate prospect? And since when was having a fantasy about a player that there is no actual evidence linking the Red Sox a serious thread?
  8. Come on RSFFL, Dojji is right. Did we really need another one of these topics?
  9. The last few years he's been a .340-.350 OBP guy, and he's got a pretty cheap option for 2012. We were so focused on Lowrie, a lot of us forgot how good he is.
  10. Reyes will cost a wealth of prospects. That is a no-brainer, but I'm talking about Beltran. Beltran has a 20 million dollar contract, and won't be netting anyone a first rounder. There are only a handful of teams that spend that kind of money. Factor out the ones not in the playoff hunt, and the ones cutting costs, and the ones who are set at corner OF... and there are a maximum 1-2 other teams who will be interested. Nowhere did I say that Hanley will be a bad outfielder. But it will take him time to adjust to the position. We're in the middle of world series run, and quite frankly, I prefer the sure-thing right now.
  11. Beltran will cost 20 million as a OF, and is natural there. He's having a great season and will cost little to no prospects. Hanley will cost 15 million, and is not natural to the OF. He's having a crummy season, and his 2010 OBP and OPS are around the same as Beltran's 2011. He'll cost more in the long haul, and will destroy the farm system. He's a terror in the clubhouse. Personally, if we're looking at an expensive outfielder, I'd take Beltran. Edit: @Spitball
  12. Hanley is available and probably cheaper because 1) he's hitting like crap, and in decline 2) he's a cancer to the clubhouse 3) he costs significantly more than Reyes money-wise 4) he won't last at SS 5) he won't net his team two top picks at the end of the year
  13. 3.5 years >> 7 years
  14. Hanley isn't worth half as much in the OF instead of SS. Is his arm good enough for RF?
  15. And ofcourse all the Tito defenders suddenly go quiet and are nowhere to be found.
  16. I just don't see the logic of putting a .114 hitter in the #6 spot of strongest lineup in the majors. This is spitting in the face of Scutaro and Varitek who hit just fine.
  17. Seriously, what does Reddick have to do to get some playing time? Tito's obsesssion with veterans is infuriating. Mcdonald has 4 hits ALL SEASON.
  18. Unfortunately, Mcdonald is more likely to be the guy who gets the boot when Crawford comes back. Cameron will waste a roster space for atleast another month.
