  1. First off, I know I'm not Theo, and have no power to trade anyone. I don't see the point in bringing that up. That's because the question wasn't would Theo trade him, it was, "Would you do an Ellsbury for Lincecum trade?" So, I gave you my answer, based on if I was in the spot to trade anyone. So, don't attack me for answering your question. Secondly, all I am saying is, the way the Red Sox luck, with starting pitchers have been going, why would you trade someone who just had an MVP year for you, for someone who hasn't pitched in a Red Sox uniform, and or in the AL East? It could end up being another Eric Gagne for all we know. That would be another huge bust and everyone would yet again be flip flopper and want Theo's head for a move they originally wanted.
  2. Is there even a doubt, Jerry Remy.
  3. I don't think that would fix anything. In my opinion, the Red Sox have too many star players on that team. Having too many star players, is never a good thing. No matter how silly that may sound.They all want to be "the guy". When the truth of the matter is, not everyone, on a ball team, can be "that guy". Every sport needs it's role players, with a few stars sprinkled in here or there. We have been so caught up with "Keeping up with the Joneses" (Yankees), that we forgot what won the two rings we have, team work. We transitioned from a bunch a village idiots, to the evil empire two.
  4. No, I would really like him. But, it is not likely the Red Sox have to the money to go get him. Trust me, he is going to be demanding money. Unless the Red Sox decide that they are going to drastically up their payroll. That's not likely they are going to do that too, considering the last big long term contracts they gave stare pitchers, ended up being a huge mistake. That's why I think they are going to stick with a pitcher that they know can pitch well in a Red Sox uniform and turn him into a starter. I'm talking about Aceves being that pitcher.
  5. Not a chance in hell. Why would I trade a sure thing, in Jacoby Ellsbury, for a pitcher, who hasn't pitched in one of the hardest division to pitch in, the the major leagues.
  6. Thanks for sharing this. The Red Sox are in a big mess. In order for them to get the guys they need, to get better. They are going to have to succeed the luxury cap and become the team they have always despised, the Yankees.
  7. Crap, the Yankees has an option for Nick Swisher?!? The site that I was looking at let me down. It didn't indicate that. How about the Red Sox get Lance Berkman or Carlos Beltran? Although, those are not my number one options. But, it's better then putting a kid out there, in Josh Reddick, who hasn't been consistently good.
  8. Fielders Right Field: Nick Swisher/Josh Reddick (If Nick Swisher is too much money) Center Field: Jacoby Ellsbury Left Field: Carl Crawford First Base: Adrian Gonzalez Second Base: Dustin Pedroia Shortstop: Marco Scutaro Third Base: Kevin Youkilis/Avilies (Avilies if we lose David to free agency) Catcher: Ryan Lavarnway/Jarrod Saltalamacchia DH: David Ortiz (Kevin Youkilis can also be a DH, if David Ortiz is demanding way too much money. But, it would be bad to lose Youkilis's fielding skills) Starting Pitchers Lester Beckett Bucholz Aceves Lackey
  9. f***ing a. Why can't we stop them from scoring too?
  10. MLB.TV might have an end of season deal going on.
  11. Hey, it's Nancy Drew!
  12. He only hits against the Jays.
  13. I like him too. Why couldn't he have not got that ball.
  14. I'll take a walk. Better then grounding out.
  15. Can we get a SS who can hit this off season?
  16. I get an uneasying feeling every time an outfielder goes and catches a ball now.
  17. Terry Francona made a call to pull the pitcher on time. I think I might be dreaming.
